Stocks to sell

The recent rally in the stock market has pleased investors with outstanding returns. With the earnings season going on in full swing, investors have high expectations from companies, especially the top tech companies. Driven by the AI craze, we have seen several companies report better-than-expected numbers. However, one should not judge all companies based on

Healthcare stocks can include a wide range of industries and companies. While there’s real money to be made here, the sector is also full of quicksand just waiting to pull you and your wallet into the ground. The sector includes pharmaceuticals, biotech, medical device companies, health insurers and healthcare facilities. You also have specialized healthcare

Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) stock faces significant challenges as its CEO plans to take on Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA), raising concerns for investors. Despite a recent partnership announcement with another automaker, Lucid Group’s stock remains risky and not a high-confidence pick.  The company’s public offering and move into China’s EV market raise concerns for long-term investors. That said,

There’s always something going on with Nio (NYSE:NIO) stock it seems. The China-based electric vehicle manufacturer likes to test the waters with new and unusual revenue-generating ideas. Yet, more isn’t necessarily better for unproven business ventures. Ultimately, NIO stock only earns a “D” grade as Nio refuses to stay in its lane and stick to its

Lone gone are the high times when EV stocks flew to the moon irrespective of the companies’ fundamentals. In 2023, the market’s landscape is quite different and Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) stock can’t thrive on hype alone anymore. Unfortunately, as the data will show, Lucid Group just hasn’t lived up to its potential lately. Lucid Group has

In my last article on QuantumScape (NYSE:QS), I discussed the recent rally with QS stock, and whether this rally was due to the possible unveiling of game-changing news in the EV technology company’s then-upcoming earnings release. Flash forward to now. QuantumScape’s latest results/updates have just hit the street. As of this writing, the earnings release

Google the words “telecom layoffs,” and you get plenty of stories about industry job losses in the U.S. and Canada. That makes it very tough to decide the top telecom stock to buy and the top telecom stocks to sell. The iShares U.S. Telecommunications ETF (BATS:IYZ) tracks the performance of the Russell 1000 Telecommunications RIC

If you spend enough time in the stock market, you’ll inevitably run into consumer stocks. I like consumer stocks because they can be good buys during a robust economy. It’s also possible to find some undervalued consumer stocks when the market takes a turn lower because some consumer segments are less resistant to recessions –

It’s no secret that a few names have reached excessive valuations during the recent growth stocks rally. And so, they are overdue for a correction. Even if you think that AI will generate hundreds of billions in revenue within this decade, these stocks of AI-related businesses are trading far too ahead of the curve. Therefore,

The market for artificial intelligence chips is heating, and there are clear winners in 2023 so far. Unfortunately, Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) stock isn’t one of those winners. Moreover, don’t assume that Intel’s capital position will improve quickly this year or even next year. The bull case just isn’t strong enough to recommend INTC stock right now. Sure,

Traders have made artificial intelligence (AI) 2023’s hottest investing theme and with good reason. It’s truly remarkable how quickly generative AI solutions have developed in chatbot and image generation fields. However, this technology has created a lot of overvalued AI stocks. Reportedly, there were approximately 2,000 companies involved in the U.S. car industry in its

The market outlook seems positive with the S&P 500 index closing in on a 20% rise year-to-date (YTD). While I expect the momentum to remain positive, I would be cautious with stocks that have witnessed a significant rally. Particularly, when those tempting stocks which saw rallies have become overvalued stocks to sell. The fear of

With the AI boom, investors are searching for the next Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA). While there are some that could rival the tech giant, many chip stocks are unfortunately falling into the category of top chip stocks to sell. There’s a reason why this secular growth trend has boosted NVDA more than threefold since the start of

While the stock market has performed well this year, the gains have not been spread broadly. Many well-known companies and underperforming blue-chip stocks have trailed the market’s performance and disappointed investors. Poor-performing blue chips reached their current predicaments due to several factors, such as declining sales, weak earnings, sour sentiment, and rising competition. Whatever the

It’s easy to feel optimistic about China-based electric vehicle manufacturer Li Auto (NASDAQ:LI). After all, retail traders heavily favor LI stock now. Yet, this is why contrarians and value-focused investors should be concerned. Even if you like Li Auto’s future prospects, there’s nothing wrong with knowing when to take your winnings and walk away. Hopefully, you

There’s good news and bad news in July to report for electric vehicle manufacturer Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID). The optimists will choose to see the glass as half-full, but LCID stock is vulnerable to a near-term decline. Unless Lucid Group strikes EV-market gold in the Middle East, the automaker and its shareholders could be in trouble. You

Dividend stocks have always been one of the best ways to grow wealth, earn income and help protect you from inflation. However, this only holds true if you invest in the right stocks. Companies that decline on yields and price – or worse yet, stop giving out dividends altogether – are losing prospects for any

As an investor in 2023, the relatively encouraging numbers might lure you into a false sense of security. Underneath the surface are stocks to avoid that have been raising the alarm with red flags for quite some time now. Consider the companies that have experienced a dramatic drop across both lines, for instance. These flashing

Even from its name, the metaverse seems like a science fiction dream come true. A world of infinite possibilities that anyone can plug into from the comfort of their own home. But this dream has hit the crushing reality of high-interest rates and low returns on investment. And many high-risk metaverse stocks have been crushed

Even if you have a bullish outlook on electric vehicle (EV) battery technology company QuantumScape (NYSE:QS), be careful. QS stock will be vulnerable over the coming days due to a major event that could turn QuantumScape’s optimistic investors into disappointed pessimists. It may be the case that solid-state batteries, like the ones that QuantumScape is developing,

FOMO is carrying the day, week and month on Wall Street. And the rally is starting to spread beyond the tech sector. This means some blue-chip stocks are beginning to catch a bid. That’s encouraging news. However, while this rally may have legs, there are still some blue-chip stocks to avoid. Blue-chip stocks are sought

Warren Buffett famously said that investors should be “fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others are fearful.” So with many on the Street starting to get greedy, as demonstrated by the market’s huge rallies in recent months, a case can be made that investors should start to become more fearful than they were

As I write this article, the S&P 500 is trading at its 52-week high. Despite concerns about weak earnings, the likelihood of another interest rate hike, and a possible recession at some point in the next six to nine months, investors continue to climb the wall of worry. But should meme stocks be along for

“Nothing ventured, nothing gained” is clearly the current mantra at Intel (NASDAQ:INTC). As you may have heard, the chip maker is making a big gamble on chip foundries. Those bullish on INTC stock believe this will supercharge the company’s earnings in the coming years. Taking calculated risks is a smart move for maximizing shareholder value.

The strength of growth stocks continues in 2023, with the Nasdaq 100 index approaching its previous high from November 2021. It’s the strongest first half on record for the exchange, reflecting a healthy economy with significant growth and receding inflation. But that’s really not the case with the stocks listed below. The stock market rally

Holding Carvana (NYSE:CVNA) stock now is a dangerous proposition. Sure, it could go higher if there’s an epic short squeeze, but the hype fuel could run out anytime. At the end of the day, sensible investors should think about whether Carvana’s current valuation makes sense, especially considering the trajectory of used-vehicle prices. Certainly, Carvana is

Ratings from Wall Street analysts can be a valuable resource when trying to determine which individual stocks to buy, and which individual stocks to avoid. However, that doesn’t mean you should follow Wall Street recommendations verbatim. It should be noted that it is in the interest of sell side analysts to lean bullish rather than

As the latest bull market continues, it may seem as if now is not a time to worry about whether to sell penny stocks. While mega-cap tech stocks have been some of the most high-profile strong performers in recent months, many low-priced ($5 per share or less) speculative growth stocks have been crushing it as well. However, while some analysts

Although acquiring shares of companies listed in the Dow Jones Industrial Average tends to be a smart wager, shifting economic circumstances might raise a cloud of suspicion over certain doomed Dow stocks to avoid. To be 100% clear, this list represents a mental exercise based on forward circumstances that may or may not materialize. It’s

Clean energy and renewable power solutions are key investment trends going forward. Undoubtedly, the world will continue to shift away from fossil fuels and toward green solutions over time. Hydrogen stocks will likely be one key part of this renewable energy future. However, unlike wind, nuclear, or solar, commercial-scale hydrogen is still in the early
