Stocks to sell

As investors prepare for a sustained bull run in 2022, following a rocky 2022, it’s imperative to keep an eye on the market and reevaluate one’s portfolio. This involves the identification of the worst stocks to buy now and steering clear of those with red flags and warning signs. A lot has changed in the

Between macro uncertainty and this year’s banking crisis, it’s no surprise that fintech stocks like Block (NYSE:SQ), after performing poorly in 2022, have continued to underperform thus far in 2023. Despite this, some may be confident that a boost for SQ stock is just around the corner. That is, the company, which owns digital financial

GameStop (NYSE:GME) decided to give up on the potentially lucrative consumer electronics/technology e-commerce market prematurely, while the sales of its brick-and-mortar stores will probably drop going forward. Moreover, after the interactions that GameStop Chairman Ryan Cohen had with Bed Bath & Beyond (NASDAQ:BBBY) over the last year, I’m not very optimistic about his management skills or

Investors who’ve held bank stocks have been on a roller coaster since last month, especially with certain banks such as the Silicon Valley Bank (OTCMKTS:SIVBQ) and Silvergate Capital (NYSE:SI). However, big banks and their stocks haven’t been spared the pain either. Many top-tier banks having nearly a fifth of their market capitalization wiped out within

Electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:RIVN) has plenty of skeptics. It’s been difficult to defend RIVN stock as it has lost ground in 2023 so far. Unfortunately, the outlook isn’t bright, as Rivian Automotive’s expenditures are disproportionately high. This isn’t to suggest that Rivian Automotive is doing everything wrong. For example, it’s notable that

The fall of Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock is inevitable. At its April 25 opening price of about $161 per share, Tesla had a market cap of about $515 billion. That’s more than all of China’s electric car industry put together, three times more than the rest of the U.S. auto industry. It’s about 2.5 times the value of Toyota

With the broader equity indices struggling for traction, rising recession fears brings the glaring spotlight back on so-called real estate bubble stocks. Due to the unique circumstance underlying the Covid-19 crisis and subsequent governmental response, housing prices skyrocketed. In turn, several companies plying their trade in the arena benefitted. But as the saying goes, all

Almost all artificial intelligence (AI) stocks have been hot in 2023 as speculation about the technology continues to drive hype around the businesses involved in AI development. New AI technology such as ChatGPT is indeed revolutionary, and people are still wondering what the implications are going forward since it can cut down on a lot

With the market still absorbing the key takeaways from its latest financial results, Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) continues to trend lower. Granted, these more recent moves with TSLA stock have been relatively mild. At least, compared to the stock’s double-digit drop immediately after the electric vehicle maker’s quarterly earnings release on April 19. Still, while perhaps not

The other shoe has officially dropped for Bed Bath & Beyond (NASDAQ:BBBY) stock. As you’ve likely heard, the struggling retailer filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on April 23. With the market expecting such a development over the past few months, the official news has had less of an impact on the price of BBBY stock

In certain circumstances, high-yield dividend stocks can be great opportunities. However, often, they are well within the “stocks to avoid” category. Mainly, because of their high risk of being so-called “dividend traps.” A stock that is falling because of either a dividend cut, or the growing likelihood of a dividend cut. This creates a double-whammy

Loyal investors of electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) have already been through the wringer. Yet, it’s probably only going to get worse for LCID stock. As we’ll see, May 8 will be an important, and possibly terrible, day for Lucid Group and its stakeholders. Moreover, competition from the likes of Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) will only

The shares of electric-vehicle maker Mullen Automotive (NASDAQ:MULN) have tumbled to less than 10 cents. This clearly indicates that institutional investors seem to have lost confidence in Mullen and MULN stock. In another indication of large investors’ lack of confidence in the automaker, several such investors have been given the right to sell large shares in exchange

In a high-interest-rate environment, cash is king. All biotech companies will need to continue spending to finance their R&D. But debt-fueled spending is becoming expensive. And selling stock will just dilute current shareholders. All companies will find it hard to deal with this, but none more so than companies with negative earnings and little cash

After bouncing back strongly at the start of 2023, AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC) stock has traded sideways in more recent months. Currently at around $5 per share, AMC stock may look tempting, for risk-hungry investors bullish that the popular “meme stock” will soon resume making big moves. Unfortunately, while shares in the movie theater chain may

At the start of 2023, sentiment for Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) shifted from bearish back to bullish. This resulted in TSLA stock zooming back from the low-$100s, back to the low-$200s in a matter of weeks. Throughout February and March, Tesla held on to the bulk of these gains. This was in contrast to other electric vehicle

Investing would be a lot easier if you didn’t have to worry about underperforming stocks to get rid of. Wouldn’t it be great if stocks did what you thought they would do when you bought them? But that’s part of the game you play when you invest in the stock market. We can use tools, metrics

Plug Power (NASDAQ:PLUG) stock was off to a strong start back in January. However, sentiment changed dramatically starting in early February. This has resulted in a more than 50% price decline for PLUG stock in a little over two months. During this time frame, this widely followed hydrogen stock has tumbled from above $18 per

As much as I love dividend stocks, it’s important to note that I don’t love all dividend stocks; and you shouldn’t either. There are certainly some dividend stocks to avoid out there. Dividends are great. They are quarterly (or sometimes monthly) payouts to investors as a reward for holding a stock. Retirement investors love dividends

This year, household goods retailer Bed Bath & Beyond (NASDAQ:BBBY) faces substantial financial problems, and BBBY stock investors are deep underwater. Granted, the company hasn’t officially declared a Chapter 11 filing. However, it’s probably only a matter of time before Bed Bath & Beyond spirals into bankruptcy. So, if you’re a current shareholder, consider hitting the

The Federal Reserve’s recent prediction of a potential recession in the United States this year has brought attention to a fresh batch of dividend stocks to avoid. These stocks may already be facing challenges, and a downturn in economic activity could be the catalyst that pushes them over the edge. Identifying these issues early allows investors to potentially rotate

While SoFi (NASDAQ:SOFI) is growing rapidly and should benefit significantly from the likely end of the student-loan payment moratorium in August, the company has important weaknesses and is facing threats that could potentially be very debilitating. Its weaknesses are its lack of profitability and the high interest rate that it’s paying on its deposits. Among

With Bed Bath & Beyond (NASDAQ:BBBY) facing multiple, likely insurmountable challenges, the retailer appears to be headed straight to bankruptcy. Given the tremendous volatility and unpredictable nature of the stocks of bankrupt companies, I recommend that all investors immediately sell BBBY stock. Among the seemingly insolvable problems that Bed Bath and Beyond is facing are an inability

After spiking following GameStop’s (NYSE:GME) latest quarterly earnings release on March 21, GME stock has held steady in the low-$20s per share. Managing not to cough back its most recent gains just yet, some may believe that shares in the video game retailer have the potential to rise further from here. But while another “meme

The stock market has been off to a hot start so far in 2023. All four major U.S. stock indices are higher so far on the year, while the Nasdaq’s 15.75% return is more than double the next-best performer (the S&P 500). Still, there are some stocks that are losing steam and risk underperforming in

As our trusty authors have covered in detail, electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Mullen Automotive (NASDAQ:MULN) just received what looks like a $110 million bailout. However, it’s an awfully flimsy lifeline for an automaker that’s in deep financial trouble. If you’re waiting around for MULN stock to recover, don’t hold your breath. It’s entirely possible that

Dividend stocks tend to be a strong equity subclass for investment in general. Most stocks that pay dividends tend to be stable because consistently returning earnings to shareholders is not always possible in weaker companies. That includes the companies listed as some of the top dividend stocks to avoid. Over time a healthy payout range between

EV stocks have been the subject of investment-related conversation for years. With Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) constantly commanding headlines over the past five years, you’d have to live under a rock to have missed the growing EV trend. The push toward net zero is intensifying, and most agree that electric cars will be part of that transition. Governments worldwide

The markets may be showing solid signs of improvement, but there are still many stocks to sell. In fact, in this environment of elevated interest rates, stocks with unrealistically high valuations are likely to come back to earth sooner rather than later. So, here are seven stocks to sell in April that are very likely to

As the tech market starts to come back, investors are on the lookout for dividend stocks to sell to keep their porfolios clean. Whether for passive income or building generational wealth, everyone likes a dividend.Stocks with high dividends have kind of been neglected in the tech-mania that’s been taking over the stock market. But not
