Stocks to sell

Tech stocks make up a large portion of popular indices like the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite. The strong-performing Magnificent Seven cohort is also filled with tech stocks. While the tech industry has offered many opportunities for investors to outperform the market, some stocks in the sector are duds. These stocks have underperformed the stock market and don’t have much redeeming qualities.  Certain

Lucid‘s (NASDAQ:LCID) first-quarter results, reported on May 6, were uninspiring, and the valuation of Lucid stock remains excessive. On the other hand, I’m now 70% to 80% sure the automaker’s upcoming Gravity SUV will be at least popular enough to keep the company afloat for the foreseeable future. I also think there’s a 50% to

Bankruptcy is simply a legal proceeding in which companies seek relief when unable to repay their debts. Although it relieves the debt burden, the effects of bankruptcy on a stock are often fatal. Publicly traded companies that declare bankruptcy see their share prices fall dramatically.  The hint of bankruptcy alone is often enough to send

Investors who buy and hold reliable companies can be rewarded immensely for staying strong during volatility. Even the best stocks endure corrections and points when many doubt long-term prospects.

Still, PLTR’s profits remain quite low considering the company’s high-flying stock. And the company continues to face multiple, strong, worrisome threats. Moreover, the Street appears to have lost its love for Palantir stock. In light of these points, I

Late last month, Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) shares were on a tear. During this time, investors bid up Tesla stock not once, but twice. TSLA’s price performance in May has been stellar. Shares have retraced a substantial portion of last month’s gains. The stock may fall back to previous lower price levels. Recent news on Chinese EVs

Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) share price enjoyed a resurgence in 2023. Many chip stocks performed well because of the buzz around artificial intelligence. Intel’s share price surged over 94.6% in 2023. Intel’s stock has plummeted over 40% this year. Below are 3 reasons Intel will likely remain a shadow of its former self. Chip Manufacturing and Intel

During these challenging times of persistent inflation and high food prices, executives need to be responsive to consumers’ needs. Unfortunately, Starbucks’s (NASADQ:SBUX) management seems to be missing the mark in 2024. After reviewing the facts, I’m categorizing Starbucks stock as “cheap for a reason.” The situation with Starbucks has gotten so bad that former CEO

Traders are getting excited about penny stocks right now.

Dividend Aristocrats are held in high regard amongst investors due to their proven ability to achieve robust financial results and pay growing dividends over extended time periods. Considering an essential requirement of being a Dividend Aristocrat is increasing dividends for 25 consecutive years, they deserve the praise they get. However, what if I proposed that

Despite the robust Q1 2024 financial reports Palantir Technologies (NYSE:PLTR) stock took a hit following its earnings report earlier this month. Overall, I believe the expectation for Palantir Technologies stock is very high, which could explain why the stock reacted the way it did. Investors may fear the company’s inability to meet expectations. The company

ExxonMobil (NYSE:XOM) recently completed its $60 billion acquisition of Pioneer Natural Resources. The deal expands the oil and gas giant’s presence in the oil-rich Permian basin. However, before the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) signed off on the transaction, Pioneer CEO Scott Sheffield was banned from taking a board seat at Exxon. It alleged Sheffield colluded

Blue-chip stocks to sell might seem odd, especially in a year with rising corporate earnings, a U.S. presidential election and possibly three rate cuts. However, stock investors must stay watchful, especially with the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average up 10% and 4.7%, respectively, far from a bull run. J.P. Morgan analysts expect poor

Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) was a darling of the chipmaking market many years ago. Then, it was a laughingstock in 2022, and then a darling again in 2023. Now, Intel is a troubled business again in 2024. Honestly, who really needs to invest in a nauseating roller-coaster play like Intel stock? We’re giving the stock a “D” grade

Just when we thought the stock market was catching a break, it now has the hurricane season to contend with.

With corporate bankruptcy filings on the rise, you may be interested in figuring out the list of stocks at risk of bankruptcy. Interestingly enough, while hundreds of corporations have filed for bankruptcy so far this year, only a few are well-known, publicly traded companies.

Meme stocks have the potential to completely change the portfolio health even with a limited exposure of 5% to 10%. The best example now is Carvana (NYSE:CVNA), which surged from under-$5 levels at the beginning of 2023 to $117. At the same time, there are meme stock ideas that have destroyed wealth.
