Stocks to sell

Knowing what stocks to avoid as a savvy investor can be as important as finding the next big company with impressive returns.

The world’s richest man just unveiled his own AI chatbot. And it may present an existential threat to the world’s most powerful AI company.  Elon Musk – the man leading Tesla (TSLA), X (formerly Twitter), SpaceX, The Boring Company, and more – has a new passion: creating AI models.  Earlier this year, he started xAI,

Dividend stocks can provide steady cash flow for long-term investors. These corporations often distribute cash to investors every quarter so they can reinvest into more shares. However, some dividend-paying companies have seen their financials struggle over the years.

Investors face a complicated picture heading into the holiday season. War, inflation, high interest rates, and a potential recession are among the risk factors on the horizon. Many investors are understandably turning to fixed income and defensive stocks to ride out the current storm. By contrast, this is precisely the wrong time to be taking

Let’s not sugarcoat it – the topic of stocks to sell sucks. Obviously, with any talks about removing securities from your portfolio, you’re dealing with other people’s money and their aspirations. On the other side of the table, many jobs are on the line if the target enterprise stumbles further. But you got to ask

AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC) has struggled for some time, with attempts to find a silver lining coming up short. Recent efforts, like promoting Taylor Swift’s Era’s Tour film, may not save this company from what appears to be an eventual delisting. Indeed, Moody’s downgraded AMC’s credit rating to ‘junk’ in April, and plenty of analysts continue

The cannabis market has been marred by long swings of optimism and even longer swings of underwhelming results. Investors in the space have been burned time and again by stocks that promise massive returns from the fledgling sector that continues to draw hope from a patchwork of legal regulations. The hope continues to be that

Nio (NYSE:NIO) has performed poorly over the past few months. Although shares in the China-based EV maker have found support in recent trading days, I wouldn’t assume that the dust has settled with NIO stock.

The flying car market is one of the most hyped, anticipated sectors in the transportation industry. However, investors should be wary of the high risks and uncertainties involved in this nascent and unproven field. True, some analysts predict flying cars will revolutionize urban mobility and create a multi-billion-dollar market. For example, the electric vehicle (EV)

A “Robinhood (NASDAQ:HOOD) stock” is one with bad fundamentals small investors buy anyway to squeeze shorts and “get the man.” It’s practically a synonym for a trade made by dumb money. Robinhood is also a Robinhood stock. Since its first day’s close of $35.15 on July 5, 2021, shares are down 73%. In 2023 they’re

The cryptocurrency market witnessed 37% year-to-date growth in 2023. However, the bullish market can mask the weakness of some assets. Investors should consider shedding unwanted cryptocurrencies as we approach 2024. Better yet, they should take note of which cryptos to avoid in the coming year. All the cryptocurrencies mentioned in this article, in my view,

ChargePoint (NYSE:CHPT) is an exciting company in a dynamic industry. But the leading operator of electric vehicle charging networks is not a stock for anyone faint of heart to own or trade. Shares of ChargePoint have been incredibly volatile this year. Sure, it’s up more than 25% this week as investors have cheered the Federal

Tech firm Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ:PLTR) had a turbulent few years. On a year-to-date basis, PLTR stock has surged more than 130%. However, this stock remains more than 50% below its 2021 peak. Historical issues with overvaluation, low margins, and profitability seem to be improving with AI technology. However, this stock remains a no-go for many

Electric vehicle (EV) battery technology company QuantumScape (NYSE:QS) does certain things well. However, making money isn’t one of those things. The company also isn’t good at providing value to its shareholders, as QS stock hasn’t been a winner lately. Frankly, investors should look elsewhere as QuantumScape has financial issues that can’t be ignored. QuantumScape rarely updates

Following the rise in interest rates, many stocks, including shares in large, well-known companies, now sport relatively high dividend yields. Yet before you decide to buy, beware of the names best left as dividend stocks to sell. When you think of the phrase “dividend trap,” what may first come to mind are stocks in companies

While the jury’s still out whether the economy and the market is headed for a soft or hard landing, as interest rates remain high, that doesn’t mean you should forget about which stocks to avoid. Even as it’s possible that recent fears of another downturn for stocks may prove to be an overreaction, there are

The third-quarter earnings train rumbles along. While the majority of Q3 prints have been better than expected, several have been absolutely dreadful, putting analysts and investors in a foul mood and leading all the major stock indexes to post declines for October. The reasons for the poor financial results vary and include everything from macroeconomic

Although the experts continue to tell us that electric vehicles are the future, shifting sentiment in the space now necessitates a discussion about EV stocks to sell. Essentially, EV inventory concerns weigh heavily on the industry. Even worse, the headwind affects sector players big, small, and somewhere in the middle. As Axios pointed out earlier

It’s been a challenging time for the real estate investment trust (REIT) market in 2023. Higher interest rates make it much more expensive to service debt. Investors are demanding higher yields on their stocks, which pushes down share prices. And lower share prices, in turn, make it harder for REITs to issue new equity to

An indirect but interesting way to invest in the electric vehicle (EV) boom is through shares of high-conviction lithium miners. Thus, you may have heard about multinational specialty chemical and lithium company Albermarle (NYSE:ALB), but we definitely don’t consider it to be high-conviction. Indeed, we’re seeing major issues with ALB stock and can only give it
