Since the pandemic began two years ago, and General Motors (NYSE:GM) stock dumped its dividend, the stock is up by 42%. That’s better than the average S&P stock.

Coupang (NYSE:CPNG), one of the largest e-commerce companies in Asia, saw a rocky start to the year. CPNG stock dipped 22.3% per share to $22.85, because of a series of short-term disruptions that weighed on its profitability. More worryingly, since its initial public offering (IPO) in March 2021, Coupang lost over 50% of its market
On the surface, the news that Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) is upping its maximum base pay for corporate and tech workers to $350,000 from $160,000 is a win for current and future employees. However, I’m not sure anyone holding AMZN stock should be sold on the move. Source: Frederic Legrand – COMEO / Shutterstock.com Here’s why I
Lucid (NASDAQ:LCID) will likely release its fourth-quarter results next week or shortly thereafter. Investors should expect to see the company show solid progress in the production of its electric vehicles (EVs).

Shares of 3D printing pure-play Desktop Metal (NYSE:DM) stock have cratered over the past year. DM stock has shed over 85% of its value in the past 12 months. Lackluster results and continual delays in releasing its much-talked-about Production System P-50 have driven investor skepticism. Though elements fuel its long-term bull case, its lofty valuation
The last time I discussed the controversial special purpose acquisition company Digital World Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ:DWAC), its shares were up 57% on a year-to-date (YTD) basis. Since then, DWAC stock had its dips and dives, but it is still up 6o% YTD. Source: rafapress / Shutterstock What in the heck gives? For me, I find
When conservative talk radio host Larry Elder went head-to-head against incumbent California governor Gavin Newsom during last year’s recall election, it had significant implications for DraftKings (NASDAQ:DKNG). You see, Elder has some libertarian views, but he’s not too fond on gambling, which of course would have boded poorly for DKNG stock had he won. Source:
Digital World Acquisition (NASDAQ:DWAC) is a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC). Even in a brutal downturn for SPACs, DWAC stock has managed to succeed beyond everyone’s wildest expectations. That’s because Digital World announced a merger with former President Trump’s emerging media and internet company, Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), which is planning on launching
Cassava Sciences (NASDAQ:SAVA) stock illustrates the promise — and hazards — in biotechnology investing. Casssava management says it has a drug that can effectively treat Alzheimer’s Disease, one of the most destructive diseases known to man. They may have it, or they may not. It’s impossible for a small investor like me to know for
January wasn’t a good month for Coupang (NYSE:CPNG). As a result, the South Korean e-commerce company lost 29% of its value. CPNG stock has fared slightly better through the first week of February, but it has still been an up-and-down experience for shareholders.

It seems that investors’ concerns are beginning to ease around Alibaba (NYSE:BABA) stock. After the long, tumultuous downturn it appears that pressure is beginning to abate.

Typically, when a publicly traded company loses nearly 16% of market value over the trailing month, there’s a reason for it — and usually not a good one. That’s the situation with SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI). Though backed by several relevant innovations like fintech and cryptocurrencies, investors currently have a dim view of SOFI stock. Source:
Next week offers fourth-quarter earnings reports from a number of blue-chip companies and household names. In recent weeks, we have gotten mixed earnings reports from big banks and technology companies. While some companies, such as Wells Fargo (NYSE:WFC) and Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) blew the doors of their Q4 prints, other companies such as JPMorgan Chase (NYSE:JPM)
Like so many special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs), SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) stock has been a volatile one.

Like other speculative growth stocks, Skillz (NYSE:SKLZ) continues to struggle. The days of “growth at any price” have long since passed.

Fisker (NYSE:FSR) plans to start producing its Ocean SUV model this year, which should prove to be positive news for the electric vehicle maker. However, a few key challenges remain and FSR stock has dropped more than 30% so far in 2022. This has many wondering if Fisker is still a hot play on electric
Although most folks love to parrot the phrase, “electric vehicles are the future,” that future may be further off than many think. Sure, we’d love to go green and all, but we also need to pay the bills. That’s where QuantumScape (NYSE:QS) could potentially provide the paradigm-shifting solution, explaining early sentiment for QS stock. Source:
The Nasdaq’s steep correction in the last month is punitive to the most speculative stocks in the last two years. This resulted in Skillz (NYSE:SKLZ) being stuck in a sustained downtrend. Investors are no longer willing to wait for an electronic gaming and multimedia firm to pivot to the sports betting market. SKLZ stock is
Investors in QuantumScape (NYSE:QS) haven’t had much to cheer since the electric vehicle battery maker went public via a merger with special-purpose acquisition company Kensington Capital Acquisition in November 2020.
