Stocks to sell

When I last wrote about Bed Bath & Beyond (NASDAQ:BBBY) earlier this month, I talked mainly about the struggling retailer’s recent financing transaction with Hudson Bay Capital Management, and what it meant for BBBY stock in the future. In a nutshell, I argued that Hudson Bay was making an asymmetric wager on favorable terms, yet

‘Fallen angel’ stocks, or stocks that have fallen far from their past highs, can be tempting as possible contrarian buys. Yet while there are sometimes diamonds in the rough among these names, for the most part, it’s best to consider them stocks to sell. Why? While Mr. Market may not get it right 100% of the

Investors are always looking for a good bargain. And companies whose share prices have plunged can represent great buying opportunities if conditions are right. But there are some stocks to avoid at any price given their operating losses and flawed business models. Traders tolerated large losses in recent years if a company seemingly had a

Greg Becker, the head of Silicon Valley Bank, sold nearly $30 million in stock in the two years leading up to the regional bank’s collapse. As a result, CEOs selling stock are again back in the headlines. It’s not so much that investors are against CEOs selling stock. After all, we all have financial obligations

Finding stable companies in a market downturn is vital to an investment portfolio. With Federal Reserve rates climbing to their highest levels since 2007 and the recent banking crisis, safe and robust companies are critical. These three companies have stocks to avoid based on their recent earnings misses and the overall economic outlook. Bed Bath

It may be tempting to invest in customer relationship management (CRM) software specialist Salesforce (NYSE:CRM) right now. Yet, caution is advised, as CRM stock isn’t a bargain at all. It will be difficult for Salesforce to live up to the company’s expectations, especially now that Salesforce is aggressively slimming down. At first glance, it seems like

Based upon its advertising, Ally Financial (NYSE:ALLY) is a digital-first provider of financial services. However, while Ally may position itself as a fintech-like entity, those in the know about ALLY stock are well aware of the company’s true business: auto lending. Ally Financial is the successor to GMAC, the former finance arm of General Motors

There were some big changes made to the S&P 500 on March 17, with several well-known stocks getting reclassified. For instance, Target (NYSE:TGT), Dollar General (NYDE:DG) and Dollar Tree (NASDAQ:DLTR) are now classified as consumer staples rather than consumer discretionary stocks. And Visa (NYSE:V), Mastercard (NYSE:MA) and Paypal (NASDAQ:PYPL) have been moved from the technology

With the banking sector fallout in the U.S. sparking jitters abroad, investors may want to consider identifying the potentially worst stocks for a bear market. To be 100% clear, I’m not advocating that you should sell any of the below equities right now. Rather, you may want to consider drafting an escape plan, just in

Knowing when to sell a stock is important. Selling at the right time can ensure that your profits are maximized and help your portfolio’s profits compound over time. While there are many rules of thumb around when to sell a stock, a general rule is that it is a good idea to lock in your

There’s been plenty of talk about how far the stock market correction can go from here. Market returns remain choppy, despite inflation rates cooling off last month and the likely slowdown in interest rate hikes. However, the likelihood of a sustained rally appears to be slim, so investors must consider penny stocks to avoid. Wagering

It may be tempting to go bottom-fishing with bank stocks. However, you need to pick and choose your assets carefully. Ally Financial (NYSE:ALLY) stock might appeal to some traders because of takeover rumors that are floating around. Be careful if you’re making investment decisions based on gossip, though. Besides, Ally Financial has significant problems that you

It can be tempting to look for big winners by scraping the bottom of the barrel, but what’s left down there is typically a collection of stocks to avoid. Occasionally there’s a diamond in the rough, but the old adage “what goes down must come up” doesn’t always apply. There’s always a chance you might

U.S. investors are seeing increased interest around social media stocks. Much of this interest stems from the an increasing trend of TikTok bans, after the EU parliament prohibited the use of the Chinese social media app across three of its institutions and advised EU personnel to remove the app from their personal devices due to

Investors right now are trying to separate the wheat from the chaff when it comes to artificial intelligence stocks. And with all the hype and hyperbole, it can be difficult to tell the legitimate AI stocks from the imposters. It seems that every company under the sun is promoting itself as having an AI application

It’s perfectly fine to believe in the clean energy movement. However, this doesn’t mean you should invest in California-headquartered electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Mullen Automotive (NASDAQ:MULN) right now. Mullen Automotive has multiple problems that make MULN stock a no-go in 2023. Mullen Automotive offers impressive-looking EVs, but can the company offer value to its shareholders?

For Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN) and Coinbase stock, the signs of impending doom could hardly be stronger or more obvious. The Securities and Exchange Commission has crippled other crypto exchanges that, like Coinbase, have defied it, and the agency has issued multiple warnings that it will take similar steps against Coinbase. Through many actions and statements, the Biden administration

Hope springs eternal, but it might be misapplied with electric vehicle manufacturer Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID). Sure, there was a quick rally in LCID stock recently, and the automaker appears to be wheeling and dealing in Saudi Arabia. This isn’t the right time to consider an investment in Lucid, however, as the company still has major issues.

In the aftermath of this month’s banking crisis, plenty of financial stocks appear appealing. However, far from bargains, many of these stocks are to be considered dividend stocks to avoid. Despite recent moves to rescue distress institutions, don’t assume this banking crisis is close to resolution. More firms could be direct/indirectly affected, resulting in further

Although electric vehicle stocks have become far less hot during this bear market, the pivot towards vehicle electrification keeps moving forward. Even so, that doesn’t mean every EV stock is a buy. In fact, there are plenty of names one should consider EV stocks to sell. Why? The overall trend may be favorable, but in the
