News flash. Interest rates are soaring… and there seems to be no end in sight to the relentless rise in bond yields. But with the 10-year Treasury now hovering around 4.73%, its highest level since mid-2007, there are some opportunities for investors in stocks to profit.

Do you know about naked shorting? When a popular stock tumbles, a common course of action is for retail investors to sound the alarm that naked short selling is occurring. This term refers to the practice of shorting a stock “without having properly located and borrowed the shares to be sold.” Thanks to a variety
Robotics does not necessarily have to look like in the movies, where you have a janitor in the house who makes your meals, washes your dishes, and brings your coffee to bed every morning.

I know what you’re thinking. It’s far too late to be figuring out which metaverse stocks to sell. The buzz and hype surrounding the metaverse or integrating the real and virtual worlds (via virtual reality/augmented reality technology) peaked quite a while ago. The “metaverse bubble,” which took shape in late 2021, peaked not that long
Two of my favorite stocks to own are great growth stocks, and stocks that pay a monthly dividend.

When you invest in growth stocks you’re getting companies that are building value over
Archer Aviation (NASDAQ:ACHR) stock has been getting a lot of attention. Companies like this that are selling the future can’t tell investors exactly when the future will arrive. Archer is a leader, along with Joby Aviation (NASDAQ:JOBY), in developing electric vertical takeoff and landing craft. These can operate like a helicopter but use quieter, non-polluting
In the AI arms race that has been building in financial markets, investors have honed in on a few specific names to ride this wave higher.

I’ll admit, I like Airbnb’s (NASDAQ:ABNB) business model of facilitating short-term room rentals. It’s a brilliant concept, but cautious investors should still wonder whether ABNB stock has gotten ahead of itself in 2023. A share-price pullback is likely. Prospective Airbnb shareholders should watch, wait and be patient. As we’ll see, Airbnb’s rapid growth as a business
Canada-based Li-Cycle Holdings (NYSE:LICY) recycles lithium-ion batteries. This might, at first glance, seem like an interesting business concept. Yet, in Li-Cycle’s case, there’s a wide gulf between concept and execution, especially from a financial standpoint. LICY stock gets an “F” grade and isn’t recommended. It’s easy to see why some stock traders might be intrigued with
AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC) stock is providing lots of entertainment, but not necessarily in its theaters. If you can’t beat ’em, is now the time to join ’em? Indeed, considering short sellers’ profit margins in recent years relative to those with long positions on AMC stock, it’s clear who’s ultimately winning this war. An impressive meme stock
The hydrogen market in 2023 is not as appealing as some investors might hope, with many hydrogen stocks being ones to sell.
