Stocks to sell

The market has had a good first half this year. All three major indices are in the green, with the tech-laden Nasdaq up 30% and the S&P 500 index having gained 14%. Investors have been cheering this year’s rally following the conclusion of the longest bear market since the late 1940s. But how long can

The US is seeing a surge in cannabis legalization, with 39 states allowing medical use and 21 states permitting recreational use. Despite this, the cannabis industry has been grappling with economic and industry challenges, such as oversupply and inflation, which have created a tough environment for the industry in 2022 and beyond. As such, it

Finding overvalued stocks to sell isn’t hard. Investors today have more information than ever, promoting company transparency. However, this also means investors must contextualize this information when investing. Often, a couple of negative headlines don’t alter a company’s investment thesis. Savvy investors know there are many reasons to sell a stock, but emotion should rarely

The latest news out of Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:RIVN) has resulted in a modest boost for RIVN stock in recent trading days. As InvestorPlace’s William White put it, the electric vehicle upstart is jumping on the Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) charging bandwagon. Rivian now plans to enable its vehicles to be charged at Tesla’s extensive network of EV

Growth stocks haven’t had it equal this year, and largely companies who have mentioned “AI” multiple times in their earnings call are on a tear so far. Indeed, the hype behind such AI stocks is eerily similar to the tech bubble that brewed in the early 2000s, but this time with the AI segment. Back

Unless you’re shorting a stock, it’s never good when it falls into dangerous territory. There’s a big difference between a short-term dip while a stock gathers momentum and the sad fate of dead-end stocks. The executives (and the investors) in the companies on this list had high hopes at one point. Many of these names

Although a topic that arouses myriad emotions, targeting overvalued stocks to sell represents an important component of investing strategy. Since we’re in the middle of baseball season, you can’t always let sentimental favorites dictate your lineup. At some point, age, injuries and other factors catch up with players. That’s life. Secondly, getting rid of stocks

Deciding on which stocks to sell before a bubble burst depends on first defining where bubbles exist. That’s difficult to predict as the U.S. economy continues to confound even the best economic minds. That’s not to say there aren’t high-risk bubble stocks to sell. There are. In fact, despite positive signs, bubbles continue to exist everywhere.

Given the evergreen nature of their business, health insurance stocks offer investors a stable play. However, the rising medical costs are wreaking havoc, creating a minefield of health insurance stocks that could dent your portfolio. For example, UnitedHealth Group (NYSE:UNH), has been ringing alarm bells over escalating costs as Americans make up for delayed surgeries amidst the

If you’re a long-term investor in electric vehicle (EV) battery technology company QuantumScape (NYSE:QS), you probably felt a sense of relief when QS stock rallied recently. However, I’m advising extreme caution. This may just be a “bull trap,” and QuantumScape’s loyal shareholders could easily lose their gains soon. Not long ago, Wolfe Research analyst Rod

Electric vehicle manufacturer Polestar Automotive (NASDAQ:PSNY) might amaze you with its sleek high-performance automobiles. However, PSNY stock certainly hasn’t been a winner for long-term investors. Until this trend reverses, and until Polestar Automotive becomes a profitable business, it’s going to be difficult to assign a higher grade than a “D” to the stock. The fact is,

This article is an excerpt from the InvestorPlace Digest newsletter. To get news like this delivered straight to your inbox, click here. We’re officially in a bull market. Last week, the S&P 500 closed 20% above its recent lows and the American Association of Individual Investors (AAII) sentiment index hit its highest level since 2021. As

When Apple (NADAQ:AAPL), Goldman Sachs (NYSE:GS), Meta (NADAQ:META), and Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) are all among the companies preparing for layoffs, investors should gird their portfolios for a potential downturn. Tech stocks seem to be taking the brunt of it despite being the top performing sector this year. Yet it’s beginning to spread to other areas of

The bears have been calling for a recession since mid-2021, citing the unnatural shift post-pandemic in monetary policy and the lack of production to support the stimulus-induced demand. If you go by the book, much of that has already come true. We have had two quarters of negative GDP growth and high inflation worldwide due

Simple trading strategies like investing in stocks with high short interest deliver results like a short-squeeze rally. Quick returns in these stocks have little to do with the business fundamentals. Investing in purely speculative stocks has been rewarding in the past, particularly during the meme stock euphoria of 2021. The market of 2023 is completely

I’ve earned a lot since the 2022 bear market began. I did this by shorting shares of overvalued companies. These companies are clearly set to fail. It’s easy to spot these firms. They have unrealistic goals, tough competition, big challenges, poor products, bad management, or a mix of these. Picking the right stocks to sell

Growth stocks across most tech-related sectors have been on a tear this year, and the trend has only accelerated these past two months. Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) is one name that springs to mind, leading the charge with an eye-watering 280%-plus gain from trough to peak. However, such momentum won’t last forever and the stock market will

The stock market is on a winning streak. A lot of good companies have enjoyed welcome recoveries after 2022’s steep sell-offs. But not all of these moves are as defensible. Indeed, in the case of these three overvalued stocks to sell, investors are taking grave chances owning at today’s prices. It’d be easy to think

When it comes to overvalued dividend stocks to sell, it’s best to think of them as a “picking up pennies in front of a steamroller” type of investment. That is, in exchange for relatively modest steady gains from dividend payouts, you are assuming a big risk. That’s because these types of stocks can be vulnerable to

On paper, the recovery of the benchmark S&P 500 index from its worrying lows last year implies the return of a bull market, seemingly rendering a conversation about overvalued stocks to avoid irrelevant. However, Morgan Stanley strategist Mike Wilson begs to differ. Per CNBC, market experts lauded Wilson’s correct predictions during last year’s volatility. Therefore,
