Stocks to sell

Over the last decade, numerous electric vehicle (EV) companies have come and not-yet-gone. Some were hyped as Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) killers, while others claimed they’d carve their own niche. Yet many remain highly overvalued and speculative, with too few sales and excessively poor margins to justify their current stock price. The EV stock crash of the

As this is the year’s halfway point, it’s time to look hard at your portfolio for stocks to sell. Ask yourself what’s working and what’s not. Are your returns as high as they should be, or is something holding you back? Do you have stocks that you need to sell now? I’ve written lately about

The artificial intelligence trade appears to be fading, meaning it’s time to see which AI stocks to sell are in your portfolio.

Big investors that include

When you’re looking at which stocks to sell, don’t get too caught up in hope. In the investment game, hope is a currency of optimism. It fuels our choices, effectively stimulating growth while keeping the market’s heart pulsating.

When it comes to investing, not all that glitters is gold. In fact, the shiny overhyped stocks often blind us to the inherent risks in capital markets, trading at prices completely divorced from their fundamentals. Several such stocks faced a reality check last year, with their frothy valuations melting away to more reasonable levels. However,

How long must investors wait for electric vehicle battery technology company QuantumScape (NYSE:QS) to provide meaningful updates and achieve profitability? As QS stock continues to chop around, don’t be surprised if financial traders abandon it in search of more productive assets. Not long ago, Wolfe Research analyst Rod Lache took issue with QuantumScape’s “long path to

Cryptocurrency markets have almost aligned with the stock market, making the correlation between the two quite strong. It’s safe to say crypto is here to stay. Despite it being alive and well, garbage cryptocurrencies are abundant. The pandemic gave rise to hundreds and thousands of cryptocurrency projects. However, that was a different time. Quantitative easing

Investors love blue-chip stocks for their safety and stability. Ideally, they provide strong dividends from well-known firms with strong business models that fare well in market downturns. However, some companies are relying more on past results to hold onto blue-chip status than anything they are doing today. With these blue-chip stocks to avoid or sell,

Following the speculative frenzy of 2020 and 2021, numerous penny stocks have lost their gains. Additionally, many former high-performers have also joined their ranks. While some stocks may be oversold and worth considering, most such stocks are not attractive investments despite their low share prices. Investors should exercise caution when considering penny stocks, as they

It’s been a downhill ride for long-term investors of electric vehicle manufacturer Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID). However, LCID stock caught a bid recently because of a much-touted partnership with another automaker. This doesn’t change our “D” rating on the stock, however, as the collaboration isn’t enough to make Lucid Group a high-confidence pick. We’ve warned prospective investors

AI stocks may look as if they’re never slowing down, but that’s not true. OpenAI, the developer of ChatGPT, actively lobbied the European Union to impact upcoming AI regulations. Recent reports reveal that OpenAI’s proposed amendments to the EU AI Act, which were later included in the legislation, were approved by the European Parliament on

Exercise caution amid the electric vehicle (EV) hype, as some battery stocks face intense competition and potential price wars. While many project the global EV market will grow significantly, several companies have struggled and experienced stock declines. The market carries significant uncertainty right now. Fears of an impending recession have not gone away, despite increasing

Knowing when to sell a stock can be as important as knowing when to buy it. This can be especially difficult with dividend stocks. Investors are told to hold onto their dividend stocks to allow the benefit of compounding to work its magic. But in any market, there are dividend stocks to avoid. And in

A pair of recent headlines with Nio (NYSE:NIO) have resulted in a moderately-sized rally for NIO stock. Climbing back to prices nearing $10 per share, some may think now’s the time to add this China-based EV maker back to their portfolios. Yet despite this latest boost in price, I wouldn’t assume that Nio is next

The outlook of American bank stocks is generally mixed at this point. On the one hand, the sector should benefit from the overall strength of the U.S. economy, and the increase in interest rates makes it easier for many banks to generate large net interest margins (NIM) by charging high-interest rates on their loans. But on the

In early April, prominent Wall St analysts predicted that oil prices could go beyond $100 per barrel as OPEC+ cut output while demand was supposed to surge due to China’s reopening. However, this prediction has failed to come to fruition, as oil prices have barely budged beyond $70 a barrel, down from over $80 in April. This was

There are no hard and fast rules for what constitutes a blue-chip stock. You just know them when you see them. They tend to be large, stable, profitable companies with well-known consumer products that have a long track-record of success. Investors tend to view blue-chips stocks as safe havens for when times get tough. But

The global shift towards electric vehicles (or EVs) isn’t slowing down. But that’s hardly a reason to roll the dice with overhyped EV stocks. Plenty of companies stand to benefit from the vehicle electrification trend. Others, not so much. If successful in their respective “EV pivots,” incumbent automakers like Ford (NYSE:F) could become more profitable,

2023 has been a great year for the Nasdaq, with the tech-heavy index up 30%. With inflation moderating and the Federal Reserve seemingly set to pivot in its interest rate hike campaign, things are looking up. But it’s not all clear skies. In fact, for some high-risk tech stocks, investors should use the recent rally

With private equity firms showing interest in the cybersecurity sector through acquisitions, now could be an opportune time to invest in cybersecurity stocks. Despite experiencing dips during market downturns, these stocks have maintained a strong growth trajectory. As the market turns bullish again, these companies should benefit.
