This hasn’t been a good year for EV stocks. While the future is certainly electric, EV makers have had a difficult time dealing with the China lockdown and supply chain issues. The EV bubble may not burst anytime soon but a lot of companies could end up losing money. Many EV stocks have taken a
Stocks to sell
The three most popular hedge fund stocks to avoid have more going for them than people seem to believe. Hedge funds hold considerable sway over financial markets. At the end of 2022, the world’s 15,000 hedge funds collectively managed about $4.5 trillion in assets for clients. In the North America, there are now more than
You’ve probably heard the saying, “Don’t fight the Fed” (referring to the U.S. Federal Reserve). Well, you might end up fighting the Fed if you hold Ally Financial (NYSE:ALLY) stock. Tight lending conditions definitely don’t favor Ally and the company’s investors. Don’t get the wrong idea here. Ally isn’t in imminent danger of collapsing like SVB Financial
While focusing on equities with upside potential tends to be the superior long-term option due to the U.S. capital market’s upward bias, good investors can’t avoid the topic of stocks to sell. Invariably, in this investing game, you’re going to pick a few clunkers – we all do. What separates successful players from those who
Artificial intelligence (AI) has been the talk of the town this year, and it seems like everyone is looking to get in on the action. The opportunity in AI is massive, with the market expected to be worth over $1.5 trillion by 2030. However, investors must sift the gems from the rubble and understand which
Before you jump into a hasty trade with Silvergate Capital (NYSE:SI) stock, think carefully and consider the risks involved. Silvergate Capital is an unsuccessful bank that may be in its final stages of existence. Plus, it appears that regulators are cracking down on failing banks, and this doesn’t bode well for Silvergate Capital. Based in California,
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but Design Therapeutics (NASDAQ:DSGN) has good intentions and less-than-stellar financials. Design Therapeutics may be a pioneer in the field of genomic medicine, and that’s commendable. Yet, DSGN stock is still likely to lose value in 2023 and might even be delisted someday. Based in California, Design Therapeutics develops
Shares in China-based electric vehicle maker Nio (NYSE:NIO) appeared to be on the verge of a rebound in late March, but this month, NIO stock has fallen back into a slump. Not exactly surprising, considering that the company once again has reported underwhelming vehicle delivery numbers. Some investors continue to believe in the bull case
This year, stock markets have experienced growth, although not uniformly. Some stocks are recovering, while others are still declining or stagnating. However, unexpectedly many overvalued blue-chip stocks that have consistently outperformed the market in the past decade are now underperforming. These are well-known companies that people encounter in their everyday lives. Because of various internal
As the market starts its recovery, investors may be looking for dividend stocks to sell to lighten their portfolio. Dividend payments from stock holdings can be an important source of income for investors. However, particularly high yielding dividends can also be a sign of financial stress or trouble at a company. Often, companies that are
Electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) recently announced major changes that might alarm some investors. Experts on Wall Street will undoubtedly have different takes on Lucid’s plans for 2023. However, the big picture doesn’t look bullish for LCID stock. Lucid Group has been unprofitable quarter after quarter, and the company only produced 7,180 vehicles last year.
In March, Roku (NASDAQ:ROKU) stock was in the spotlight, and not in a good way. The company announced that $487 million, or around 26% of its cash position, was in SVB Financial’s (OTCMKTS:SIVBQ) now-defunct Silicon Valley Bank subsidiary. This left it as one of the most high-profile companies affected by the bank collapse. This, of
After Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock rebounded sharply this year in-line with my previous predictions, I believe that the shares are fairly valued. Although the automaker’s delivery growth and brand remain strong, there are signs that the demand for its EVs is waning. Some of its threats and weaknesses could start significantly, negatively affecting its financial results
If you’re looking to free up capital you might be looking for stocks to sell in your portfolio. One of the interesting things about the stock market is that only some names are winners. Some of them may be good companies, to be sure, but the timing for them isn’t the best. These are stocks
The Nasdaq 100, which represents the largest growth companies in America, went up every single year between 2009 and 2021 with the exception of a small decline in 2018. This likely gave investors a false sense of confidence, but the past 18 months have flipped that narrative on its head. Since topping out in the
ESG stocks have become very popular over the past few years. This comes as investors are increasingly concerned about the environmental, social, and governance aspects of the companies they put their money behind. Thus, many companies have seized the opportunity to project the best possible image, to increase demand for their shares. The environmental portion
Charles Schwab (NYSE:SCHW) (commonly-known as just Schwab) has been a reputable financial institution for many years. However, the recent banking crisis has taken a toll on SCHW stock. While Schwab probably won’t go bankrupt anytime soon, investors should still prepare for negative share-price pressure in the near term. The troubles that befell SVB Financial Group (OTCMKTS:SIVBQ) subsidiary Silicon
Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:RIVN) stock is once again moving lower, on the “news” a bearish research note from UBS’s Patrick Hummel. In the report, Hummel argues that the U.S. is on the verge of an automobile glut. With supply chain bottlenecks easing, automakers across-the-board are increasing production, even as demand is at the risk of cooling,
The energy sector had a blockbuster year in 2022, and actually turned out to be the best-performing sector overall. Thus far, 2023 has not played out well for investors in this sector, with energy stocks falling 4.23%, based on the S&P Global 1200 Energy index. Those negative returns contrast poorly with the broader S&P 500, which
While electric vehicles may be the future of transportation, I’m afraid these EV stocks to avoid might not make the cut. Fundamentally, as a burgeoning sector, the price for entry for arguably most consumers is simply too steep. With a smaller addressable market for a wide array of competitors, it’s inevitable that many if not
