It’s been a tough earnings season for tech stocks. However, few tech stocks can hold a candle to Intel’s (NASDAQ:INTC) horrendous post-earnings price performance.

Energy stocks soared in 2022 as prices rose with a rapid rise in demand after COVID lockdowns were lifted and supply shocks due to the Ukrainian war.

In the first half of the year, Stellantis (NYSE:STLA), the automaker that owns the Chrysler and Fiat brands, struggled mightily.

The Nasdaq and S&P 500 had their worst days since 2022, driven by disappointing earnings from mega-cap names. Recession indicators are flashing yellow, with the “Sahm Rule” unemployment metric edging dangerously close to signaling a downturn.

As the poster child of the fourth industrial revolution and the artificial intelligence (AI) boom, Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) stock has certainly gained the most in terms of reputation visibility, and popularity for its products in the last two years.

As we approach the end of July, the allure of high-flying growth stocks may be wearing thin for some investors. While these stocks have been the darlings of Wall Street during periods of bullish market sentiments, not all growth narratives continue upward indefinitely.

After Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) reported better-than-feared second-quarter delivery figures, investors saw a 15% surge in Tesla stock.

It may seem contrarian to say artificial intelligence (AI) is overvalued. However, perception plays a key role. Many companies with skyrocketing share values over the last two years can thank investor misconceptions about the true added value of AI to a company’s operations. As a result, a few AI stocks to sell are potentially disingenuous.
It’s hard to think about selling a stock after the incredible first-half rally that’s beginning to carry into the second half.

Since I wrote about Amazon’s (NASDAQ:AMZN) $190 breakout, the stock has failed to breach the $200 territory. My original thesis cited the “Prime Day” effect where Amazon stock historically did well because of Prime Day (happening in mid-july this year), not to mention that July has traditionally been a good month for the markets. In addition,
The U.S. stock market has been on quite the run over the past 12 months, fueled by potential interest rate cuts and economic optimism. Moreover, the generative AI craze and meme stock trading frenzy have been two major needle-movers turbocharging the market. Hence, many in the Wall Street punditry believe the market’s overheated, making it
