Stocks to sell

If you’ve been paying attention to the market, a bearish list on oil and gas stocks might seem odd. Looking at two primary indicators of crude prices — West Texas Intermediate (WTI) and Brent crude oil — prices for the commodity have risen steadily in 2024. For some perspective, the WTI has risen 17% on

By now, you may have heard about the slowdown in electric vehicle demand. Amid this challenging backdrop, it’s not wise to make hasty trades in the EV segment. China-based automobile manufacturer Nio (NYSE:NIO) appears to be having problems, and Nio stock only deserves a “D” grade right now. We’re not currently slapping Nio shares with an “F” rating,

Is the Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) tumble finally over? That’s what many are asking, following the recent big rebound in Tesla stock, following potentially groundbreaking news regarding the EV maker’s efforts to develop and commercialize its driver-assistance technology. TSLA was already bouncing back prior to this announcement, but after the stock’s April 29 rally, it has surged

Given the recent market volatility, many traders are trying to make money in penny stocks. With low prices and elevated volatility, penny stocks could be a great way for traders to cash in on breaking news and rapid changes in market sentiment. However, with the seemingly weakening economic and political backdrop, this is a risky

The Chinese stock market is brimming with exciting growth prospects, but also fraught with a number of pitfalls. This makes the case for investors to consider top Chinese stocks to sell in 2024. China’s economy saw a modest post-pandemic recovery, and reported GDP growth of 5.2% in 2023.  However, the IMF projects growth to be

Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) and Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG)(NASDAQ:GOOGL) exceeded Wall Street expectations in their latest quarterly results, driven by a surge in cloud revenue fueled by increased use of artificial intelligence (AI) services, Bloomberg reported. Alphabet’s shares soared up to 12%, marking its biggest gain since July 2015 and pushing its valuation past $2 trillion. Meanwhile, Microsoft rose

Warren Buffett may be the Oracle of Omaha, but his track record isn’t perfect. Just look to his losing airline play that saw Buffett dump a slew of airline stocks, including Delta (NYSE:DAL) and American (NASDAQ:AAL), at or near their initial pandemic bottom in May 2020 — companies which, like Delta, nearly doubled in the

When the economy takes an eventual downturn, retail companies are the first to suffer, followed by the automotive sector. Currently, cash is becoming more expensive by the day, as consumers are reluctant to file for loans until the Federal Reserve begins cutting rates. For car companies, this two-pronged attack can sometimes be fatal, despite financial

Investing in the biotech sphere isn’t for the faint of heart, and you should steer clear of the biotech stocks to avoid. That’s because biotech stocks tend to experience wild swings in developments, such as clinical trial outcomes or drug approvals. Unsurprisingly, the SPDR S&P Biotech ETF had shed roughly 40% in value over the

The energy industry is undergoing a seismic shift in response to climate change concerns and the sustainability of fossil fuels. Although most, if not all, energy stocks are affected, these energy stocks to avoid also have other issues. As the world moves toward cleaner energy sources, the demand for fossil fuels is expected to decrease

As the electric vehicle market softens, things look bleak for Rivian (NASDAQ:RIVN). If you invested in Rivian stock you may already have a hint of what to expect when it reports Q1 earnings May 7. RIVN recently announced it produced almost 14,000 vehicles and delivered nearly 13,600. It remains on target to produce 57,000 EVs

The healthcare industry has experienced unprecedented growth in recent years due to the global pandemic. However, as COVID-19 began to ease, the immense growth of the healthcare industry is expected to slow down. Additionally, because many healthcare companies rely on trials that need FDA approval, predicting their individual healthcare company’s performance is difficult. These companies

Equities related to the once-burgeoning hydrogen market are largely worth avoiding in 2024. The demand for renewable energy, especially one as expensive to produce and transport as hydrogen, has been rather for well over a year. While the Biden Administration’s Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) has catapulted investment into the space, tax credits and subsidies have

In the era of Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN), many retailers have gone bankrupt because they could not compete with the e-commerce juggernaut. And of course, the pandemic-era lockdowns causing many retailers to become saddled with gargantuan debt did not help. In just the last several years multiple, once major, companies have all gone belly up. The most

U.S. equities posted some gains last week, which I’m sure was refreshing to see given the sell-off a week prior. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite gained 2.7% and 2.2%, respectively. This brings their respective year-to-date gains up to 6.9% and 4.0%. Unfortunately, market risks still remain. Not only do we still need inflation to come down consistently, but

Growth stocks can deliver impressive long-term returns for patient investors. This group of assets has the potential to outperform the stock market due to high revenue growth. Some of these corporations also exhibit significant net income growth or make progress with trimming their losses. However, a disappointing earnings report can change the entire narrative. A

The Biden administration began with a great deal of enthusiasm around renewable energy stocks. Shares of firms in wind, solar, hydrogen and electric vehicles (EVs), among other green sectors, soared on hopes on significant government stimulus. And, for a time, that thesis played out. The Inflation Reduction Act was a landmark piece of legislation that

Michael Saylor isn’t just the chairman of MicroStrategy (NASDAQ:MSTR), he’s also a well-known cheerleader for Bitcoin (BTC-USD). However, Saylor sold more than 1,000 shares of MicroStrategy stock on March 20. MicroStrategy bills itself as the “world’s first Bitcoin development company.” I’m not quite sure if that’s true, but MicroStrategy could certainly claim to be the

The stocks discussed below are all flashing various warning signs that alert investors to sell. Each of these three companies has initiated a reverse stock split in the past. Some have initiated several.  If you are unfamiliar with how reverse stock spits operate, this a quick explaination. Let’s say you own 10 shares of a

The price war underway in the electric vehicle market is good for no one but especially not for Nio (NYSE:NIO) stock. Operating losses continue to expand as it continues to sell more vehicles at lower prices. Although lower starting prices should attract more buyers, it’s already the case Nio is losing money on every car
