After a huge run-up and achieving meme status, Camber Energy (NYSE:CEI) stock has fallen back to earth. The trigger of this CEI stock crash was a damning report released by famed short-seller Kerrisdale Capital.

One of the lidar industry’s most controversial players, Microvision (NASDAQ:MVIS) reported Q3 earnings last night. Microvision, a veteran in laser beam scanning technology, is one of almost a dozen companies vying for a share of the automotive lidar market. Its position as a leader in this scorching-hot space has helped propel MVIS stock 72% year-to-date.

Every time I write about Skillz (NYSE:SKLZ) I realize that analysts keep lowering their sales projections for the gaming company. Actually, it’s a software company that helps developers make their own games. Maybe after the company announces its third-quarter earnings on Nov. 3, SKLZ stock can turn around.

Robinhood (NASDAQ:HOOD) just posted a down quarter in terms of revenue growth and earnings compared to last quarter. Its crypto trading was a big portion of its revenue in Q2. Now, as seen in its latest earnings for the third quarter released on Oct. 26, crypto transactions fell dramatically. As a result, don’t expect HOOD stock

As I predicted a few weeks back, the choppy uptrend in tech-focused acquisitions company Vinco Ventures (NASDAQ:BBIG) appears to have come to an end. Following an 800%-plus year-to-date gain, BBIG stock topped out in early September. Shares now sit more than 60% below that high, following a 44% drop in the past week and a

When Virgin Galactic (NYSE:SPCE) stock began trading in 2019, its management had laid out an aggressive strategy to start flying out people to space by 2020.

Farmmi (NASDAQ:FAMI) is a tiny Chinese company in the agricultural products sector and a true penny stock, with shares currently trading for around 35 cents.

Since the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic,  several sectors have grabbed the limelight. In particular, due to the advent of social distancing, online businesses flourished.  Zoom (NASDAQ:ZM), which provides a video-communications platform, was a major beneficiary of the trend, causing ZM stock to boom.

If I had a pet, I could love Zomedica (NYSEAMERICAN:ZOM) and its services — but its stock is another story. In March, I pointed out that ZOM stock is “overvalued and a risky bet” because of the low acceptance rate of its Truforma platform. So far, my opinion hasn’t changed.

When Skillz (NYSE:SKLZ) stock traded at a 52-week low last week, it validated the bears. Source: Rawpixel.com/Shutterstock.com The stock has a short float of more than one-fifth.

While virtually every business sector suffered devastating losses during the initial onslaught of the novel coronavirus pandemic, among the worst-hit industries was food services. Suddenly, once-popular eating establishments found themselves staring at zero traffic, sending restaurant stocks cratering. Fortunately, gradual acclimatization and the vaccine rollout helped bring the sector back from the brink. However, economic

Detroit’s Rocket Companies Inc (NYSE:RKT) has made a splash in 2021 as one of the year’s classic “meme” stocks. The highlight of this action was a single-day surge of 71% at the start of March. Serious investors will point to the fact that RKT stock is much more than a Reddit-fueled story. After all, the

Fuel cell specialist Plug Power (NASDAQ:PLUG) has enjoyed a healthy run-up in its value recently. PLUG stock has grown over 24% in value in the past one month, spurred by management’s lofty claims at the recent Plug Symposium. However, though some seem to be buying into the company’s narrative, to me things just don’t add

Cannabis company Tilray (NASDAQ:TLRY) is undeniably a disappointment. Meme traders sent TLRY stock to an unsustainable high of $67 in February. Since then, the stock has fallen steadily.

MicroVision (NASDAQ:MVIS) is a company seeking to commercialize light detection and ranging (lidar) technology. The company has been in business since the 1990s and has little to show for it.

As was the case last month, GameStop (NYSE:GME) stock has managed to perform relatively well.

Cloudflare (NYSE:NET) stock keeps pushing higher, even though its valuation is in nosebleed territory. I want to recommend investors buy NET stock, but I can’t do that in good conscience. In fact, at this point, the only thing I can do is point out how incredibly overvalued it seems to be, even as it continues

Lemonade (NASDAQ:LMND) stock has caught investors’ attention, and for pretty good reason. Source: Stephanie L Sanchez / Shutterstock.com If Amazon’s (NASDAQ:AMZN) taught us anything over the past few decades, it’s the power of disruption, and the value of recognising it early.

Cloudflare (NYSE:NET) stock has performed extremely well in 2021. As of Oct. 20, it’s up 130%, opening at $175.80.

Either this momentum will continue, sending prices higher, or more prudent, conservative investors and traders will wait for a dip

Olaplex (NASDAQ:OLPX) just had a unique IPO on Sept. 30. The IPO price of $21 resulted in a huge capital raise of $1.78 billion from the sale of OLPX stock. However, as opposed to almost every other IPO there is, this capital raise is going straight to the pockets of the existing private equity owners,

UiPath (NYSE:PATH) is a $25.79 billion technology stock that is draining out cash and seems to be having trouble with top-line growth.

Just over a year ago, Hyliion (NYSE:HYLN) was one of the hottest electric vehicle special-purpose acquisition company (SPAC) plays out there.

Wish.com parent company ContextLogic (NASDAQ:WISH) stock has been a disaster since its initial public offering.

With shares moving up following the acquisition of Nanotech, is it time to buy Meta Materials (NASDAQ:MMAT) stock, ahead of its revenues taking off? Not so fast.

OpenDoor (NASDAQ:OPEN) stock is the kind of name I’ve learned to avoid.

Conversely, buying risky names that are riding positive momentum

A few months ago, the Federal Reserve was talking about “transitory” inflation. The governors at the Fed meant that while inflation was rising swiftly, it wasn’t going to last. But inflation kept rising at a brisk clip and the Fed started to be less sanguine about the transitory nature of inflation. It hedged by telling

Ocugen (NASDAQ:OCGN) is a small biotech firm. For years, it tried unsuccessfully to commercialize therapies for eye diseases. However, in 2020, it ended a Phase 3 trial on that front and pivoted to Covid-19. Its first effort in that regard, Covid-19 testing, totally failed to take off. The company is nothing if not persistent, however,

I fully understand why it’s very tempting to buy Alibaba (NASDAQ:BABA) stock at this point. The company’s shares have tumbled a great deal in the last six months, yet the company remains one of the biggest and most successful e-commerce players on the planet, and its cloud business is still growing rapidly.
