Stocks to sell

Palantir Technologies (NYSE:PLTR) has announced a few impressive commercial deals in recent months, and there are signs that its government business could be more “sticky” than I previously believed.

When it comes to investing, I think we can all agree that the name of the game is to make money. Why else are we here? A good step toward that goal is to avoid overvalued stocks. In short, overvalued stocks are those whose price exceeds the company’s near-term earnings outlook, or its price-to-earnings (P/E)

The Nasdaq has taken a plunge at the start of 2022. However, the fall of tech stocks may provide an opportunity to buy low and sell high. In a bear market, prices and the intrinsic value of companies can substantially deviate. But over time, they will move closer to the true values of companies and

For those that may be easily aroused to anger when it comes to contrasting opinions about the equities sector, you might want to turn away from this list of overrated stocks to avoid. While I’m not going to present a directly bearish thesis — as in ultra-speculative short-selling ideas — I do believe that economic

Electric vehicle (EV) companies are great long-term investments, but investors need to ensure that they manage their short-run value at risk because it tends to be negatively skewed when volatility enters the fray. Nio (NYSE:NIO) performed especially well during the earlier stages of the pandemic for two reasons. First, NIO stock gained because unexpected expansionary

I think it could be relatively easy to be misled into believing AMC Entertainment Holdings (NYSE:AMC) stock makes sense now. There are a few overarching reasons investors might mistakenly conclude that AMC is on the up-and-up. However, I’d caution against buying into those narratives.

If you’re looking for stocks to avoid in 2022, I’ve got a hint. The Financial Times recently reported that global bond issues totaled $101 billion through Jan. 7, the second-highest amount to start a new year since 2002. The highest amount? $118 billion at the start of 2021. Here’s what FT had to say about

I have a few personal nicknames for our own Louis Navellier. Ferrari Louis. Mister InvestorPlace. But whatever you might call him — good, bad or indifferent — he is universally considered outspoken. So, when Navellier becomes more opinionated than usual, such as his take on ContextLogic (NASDAQ:WISH), people should listen. For WISH stock, I don’t

As investors we can do all the homework necessary to find opportunities. But sometimes the game becomes rigged – pun intended – thereby putting us at risk. Today my mission is to suggest that there are stocks to avoid in the energy sector. This will be a tough sell because prices there are incredibly strong.

I read a statistic on Morning Brew at the start of the week that suggests GameStop (NYSE:GME) no longer has the safety net the shorts once provided.

The last time I wrote about Opendoor Technologies (NASDAQ:OPEN) stock was on Dec. 21. Maybe it should have been the last time I wrote about it.

Back last September, DraftKings (NASDAQ:DKNG) stock was viewed as a “can’t miss” wager among investors.

ContextLogic (NASDAQ:WISH) stock has fallen dramatically since my last article on Dec. 16 and also on June 18.

As I noted in my last article on Roblox (NYSE:RBLX), the company has a great deal of potential.

Usually, I like to share great stocks to buy or stocks that you need to sell or avoid. Today, it’s a bit of mix. These are great stocks — some are portfolio holdings — but this just isn’t the time to buy them. What that means is, most of these stocks have very low Portfolio

It’s true. I don’t understand GameStop (NYSE:GME) stock or its followers. I say that because I recently received an angry inbox message claiming I didn’t do my homework in regard to GameStop.

February is a few weeks away. That’s a fairly short window in which to decide to sell for some investors. For traders, obviously that’s a much less important consideration. In either case, both types of investor have reason to believe specific equities have a reasonable chance of declining before then. It’s led to speculation on

The omicron Covid-19 variant has taken its toll on cruise stocks. The three cruise ship giants in Royal Caribbean (NYSE:RCL), Carnival (NYSE:CCL), and Norwegian Cruise Line (NYSE:NCLH) have all seen their shares tumble in recent days.

Teladoc (NYSE:TDOC) was one of the tech industry’s biggest high-profile losers in 2021. TDOC stock lost more than half its value for the year.
