Tech stocks have come roaring back to start 2023. And in many cases, that is for good reason. The tech industry saw shares plunge in 2022, and many good companies got thrown out with the proverbial bathwater. That said, not everything in the tech sector is set for a significant recovery, at least not immediately. Layoffs
Like many investors, Cathie Wood didn’t have a great 2022. In fact, her flagship ARK Innovation ETF (NYSEARCA:ARKK) was down about 67% over the last 12 months, as of Jan. 31. Sure, much of the downside was a result of excessive market bearishness, but Wood also made some bad picks along the way. For example, some
For a while, it seemed as if Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) was invincible and invulnerable. AMZN stock just kept marching higher regardless of macroeconomic conditions. Now, however, the tide is turning. A huge share selloff, due to some alarming data points and a statement from the CFO, showed that Amazon has problems that won’t necessarily be resolved anytime
Quantumscape (NYSE:QS) shares have been on a tear since the start of the year, but that may be starting to end. After briefly re-hitting double-digit prices on Feb. 2, QS stock has experienced a pullback, falling down to the high single-digits. This may only seem like a modest drop for shares in this early-stage electric
Experienced investors should review their portfolios for meme stocks to sell. January’s market rebound brought back buying in outdated meme stocks, but it’s time to get out while you can. When the Federal Reserve limited the economic damage of the 2020-2021 pandemic, it eased lending. Inexperienced investors could not tell that the Federal Funds rate
Despite the recent rally in stocks, it looks like investors will have to endure volatility – and rising interest rates – for a bit longer. That means it’s time for you to look at stocks to sell. After a rough year in 2022, you can’t blame investors for having a little bit of “irrational
Every company has its fair share of risks. However, Vinco Ventures (NASDAQ:BBIG) is downright speculative. It’s wise to avoid BBIG stock, as Vinco Ventures is invested in an app with heavy competition from famous brands. Plus, the company is still looking for a chief executive. In addition, the potential to get delisted means Vinco Ventures
With geopolitical tensions and a global economic rebound, 2022 was a year to buy energy stocks. Warren Buffett went on a shopping spree buying oil and gas stocks like Chevron Corporation (NYSE:CVX) and Occidental Petroleum (NYSE:OXY). The current year is likely to be challenging. It’s time to be very selective, and there are energy stocks to sell before they trend
Among the early stage electric vehicle stocks, Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:RIVN) has far fewer problems with its underlying business. However, whether that makes RIVN stock a great opportunity today is another question. Yes, the company has made far more progress than undercapitalized upstarts like Mullen Automotive (NASDAQ:MULN). Preorder numbers for Rivian have also been more promising
SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) shares have experienced yet another big jump. Trading at price levels last hit six months ago, it may appear now that SOFI stock, after an extended slump, is en route to making at least a partial recovery. But while this latest spike, driven by the company’s latest quarterly results and updates to
Higher competition is clearly brewing in the automotive sector, which has been creating an urgency for EV stocks. Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) reached its recent trough when the electric vehicle leader suffered from noticeably weaker unit sales in Dec. 2022. The company also slashed prices so that customers could qualify for a tax credit break. Indeed, at
The Federal Reserve continues to raise interest rates in an effort to lower inflation that currently stands at 6.5% in America. On Feb. 1, the Fed lifted its benchmark interest rate another 0.25 of a percentage point to a range of 4.50% to 4.75% as it continues to try to lower inflation. The Fed’s key
It’s possible that some meme stock traders with impeccable timing have profited by trading in and out of Mullen Automotive (NASDAQ:MULN). However, the same can’t be said about investors who have bought MULN stock with a buy-and-hold strategy. Shares in the electric vehicle startup trade wildly, creating many short-term opportunities to buy when it falls
Already on an upward trajectory ahead of earnings, SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) stock has kept soaring following the release of its latest results. Since hitting new lows in December, SOFI has bounced back by around 80%, from $4.24 to about $7.50 per share. But while the latest numbers paint a stronger picture of the new bank’s prospects,
The recent rising tide of the market has lifted all boats. In light of recent macro developments, investors have become optimistic. Not only high-quality stocks have run up. Low-quality stocks, including today’s top retail stocks to sell, have rallied as well. In fact, many of the names in this category have delivered outsized gains during
BuzzFeed (NASDAQ:BZFD) has been a disastrous investment, if you bought it at its debut in 2021. Yet investors who managed to dive into BZFD stock in early January are sitting on massive gains right now. Last month, two news items sent shares in this digital media company “to the moon” as it were. Trading for
Dividend stocks pay out a certain percentage of their earnings to their shareholders. While they might not be as attractive as other types of stocks, they still provide investors with a reliable source of income. However, investors will often take many broad steps to stay ahead of the market. These steps include looking at dividend stocks
With the Nasdaq nearly in a bull market (believe it or not), many companies reporting solid earnings, and the stock market coming off a scorching hot January, I’m very optimistic about stocks. But just as “there’s always a bull market somewhere,” as CNBC’s Jim Cramer loves to say, there are always overvalued stocks to sell. Now is no exception.
Investing in growth stocks has often been heralded as the fastest route to financial success. However, amid the present volatility in the market, those thinking of embracing this potentially rewarding approach should think twice. In fact, the seven growth stocks to sell below carry higher risk, even more so in the current market environment. Growth
