Stocks to sell

A great way to play contrarian is by selling or shorting stocks that are perpetually bleeding and have little chance of making a recovery. There are many companies like Bed Bath & Beyond (OTCMKTS:BBBYQ) that are delaying their inevitable bankruptcy through share dilution and betting against these stocks can be extremely profitable if you choose

With the stock market rising quickly, many companies have become expensive. Understandably, investors are considering value stocks as an alternative to frothy growth picks. But not all cheap equities are created equal. In fact, in the case of these three overvalued value stocks to sell, the apparent discount is an illusion. That’s because these firms

One of the scariest things to do as an investor is to take a critical look at one’s portfolio. Indeed, scenario analysis can be important, to see how much downside potential certain holdings may have. And while predicting the future is essentially impossible, knowing which stocks are poised to plunge, if nothing changes, is important.

A few weeks back, I said that Mullen Automotive (NASDAQ:MULN) was in the fast lane to zero. Flash forward to now, and it is perhaps apt to say that MULN stock has crashed and burned. Falling by another 41.2% during this brief time frame alone, shares in this electric vehicle company are now down by

“Price is what you pay, value is what you get.” This famed Warren Buffett investing maxim can serve you well when determining whether a penny stock (stock trading for $5 per share or less) is worthy of a buy, or if it is one of the penny stocks to sell. Investors often make the mistake

Oil prices remain in retreat. Currently the price of West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil, the U.S. standard, is trading just above $70 a barrel, though it has dipped below that key level on several occasions. Concerns about slumping demand, a global recession, and excessive production are conspiring to drag crude prices lower, creating some

Sometimes, the best policy is to get out of the way when a “falling knife” stock doesn’t stop falling. Such is the case with Meta Materials (NASDAQ:MMAT) stock, a functional materials specialist company that could someday get kicked off of the Nasdaq exchange. The last thing any investor needs is to buy MMAT stock on the

During the Covid-19 pandemic, consumer technology cloud stocks received a huge boost as people around the world stayed at home. Office workers had to purchase an array of electronics and softwares in order to manage their remote workforce. But, the state of tech stocks has dramatically changed since, and some should be considered a “sell”

A concentrated grouping of tech stocks is responsible for rallying markets in 2023. In fact, a Forbes article from late April noted as much, stating that seven stocks were responsible for 90% of the S&P 500’s gains to that point. At the time, Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) was the biggest contributor, adding $549 billion in market capitalization. Nvidia

Dividend payments can be both a blessing and a curse for investors. On the positive side, dividends reward stockholders with profit sharing. And dividend payments can form an essential part of an investor’s income, particularly in retirement when people live on a fixed income.

Investors in the robotics sector need to carefully evaluate their portfolio as several risky robotics stocks are predicted to experience a decline. Companies categorized as overvalued or risky within the robotics industry may warrant consideration for selling. With expected downward trends, assessing these stocks’ financials and market position becomes crucial to make informed investment decisions.

How do most companies die? Some blow up spectacularly. Firms like Lehman Brothers and Long Term Capital Management left craters in the U.S. banking sector when leverage caught up with them. Others vanish in million-dollar buyouts. HP bought Compaq for $25 billion in 2002 and discontinued the trademark 11 years later. However, most companies die

It seems like anything and everything with an artificial intelligence (AI) angle is red-hot nowadays. This can help to explain why Upstart (NASDAQ:UPST) stock rallied in May and early June. Before you jump on the bandwagon and invest in Upstart, however, just remember that price-chasing can be bad for your financial health. As we’ll discover, AI

Tech stocks are flying high once again. However, some, including these seven make up the top tech stocks to avoid. The common theme among these seven companies is that they’ve enjoyed huge rallies despite rather uninspiring fundamentals. These aren’t necessarily bad businesses, but with skyrocketing share prices, these are now dangerously overvalued tech stocks. Don’t let the

Figuring out which growth stocks to sell may be the last thing on your mind right now. After all, rising hopes for a pivot on interest rates by the Federal Reserve, plus secular growth trends such as accelerating adoption of artificial intelligence (or AI) have provided a massive boost for shares in fast-growing companies lately. However,

Mining is a huge industry worldwide. From the snowy, frigid mountains in Canada to the dry, arid Australian outback and the African grasslands, mining companies crisscross the globe in search of precious metals and minerals that power our world. Investing in mining stocks involves putting money to work in capital-intensive businesses that are subject to

Rising interest rates and the economic slowdown have already weighed on real estate investment trusts (REITs). Unfortunately, there are still plenty of REITs to sell before they drop even further. Although interest rates may not necessarily be on track to spike as sharply as they have over the past 18 months, worsening economic conditions may place

In navigating the turbulent waters of the stock market, it’s probably the right time for investors to identify the worst performing EV stocks to sell as a potential downturn looms. The gathering clouds of uncertainty suggest a need for portfolio reevaluation, particularly concerning high-risk sectors such as the EV sphere. The promise of long-term returns

There are plenty of electric vehicle manufacturers out there that you can invest in. Frankly, there’s no compelling reason to choose Nikola (NASDAQ:NKLA) stock in particular. If Nikola’s CEO has his way, there could be more NKLA stock in circulation this year. Besides, Nikola is facing a delisting threat, so there’s no need to enter
