In any other time period, those who adopted a contrarian view to making expensive acquisitions — such as a new or used car — amid a heightened retail environment would be correct: just exercise patience and prices will come down. While sensible, it’s turning out to be the wrong advice. As Consumer Affairs reported, used

Barron’s magazine seems a little conflicted. On the one hand, they produced a positive story about Alibaba (NYSE:BABA) on Oct. 10.

With its drop-off in price since last month’s short-squeeze rally, Vinco Ventures (NASDAQ:BBIG) may look to many like a “flavor of the month” penny stock.

Aterian (NASDAQ:ATER) is a consumer products company. It sells a wide variety of goods for home and personal use, such as the Squatty Potty line of toilet stools. That’s apt, as ATER stock has taken a massive dump this year. After rising to $49 this spring, shares collapsed to just $3 this fall. Source: shutterstock

At just under $5 per share, ContextLogic (NASDAQ:WISH) is technically in penny-stock territory. Worse yet, WISH stock has many of the negative traits usually exhibited by penny stocks.

Disney (NYSE:DIS) is among the hardest-hit businesses in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic. As such, owning DIS stock wasn’t an easy proposition for much of 2020.

Overall, one of the main catalysts for President Joe Biden’s 2020 electoral victory was his stance on the novel coronavirus pandemic. Leading up to the election, former President Donald Trump’s administration made critical errors, primarily flirting with unsubstantiated Covid-19 allegations which undid the good of Operation Warp Speed. In turn, it’s unfortunate because people are

I have said this in the past and will say it again, tech stocks are hot picks and will continue to remain at the top for the rest of 2021. Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD) has proved its worth time and again. It has enjoyed a strong couple of years and is enjoying the momentum. AMD

Based in Oregon, coffee chain Dutch Bros (NYSE:BROS) went public on Sept. 14 at $23 per share, well above its pre-initial public offering (IPO) marketing price range.

When I last wrote about Greenidge Generation (NASDAQ:GREE) stock, the best move at the time vis-a-vis the stock seemed to have been to “wait for the dust to settle.” That is, it was best to wait for its dramatic post-merger selloff to end before buying the shares.

It seemed natural for shares of Chinese electric vehicle maker Nio (NYSE:NIO) to correct after surging from $2.11 in March 2020 to a high just below $67 in January — a gain of more than 3,000% in less than 10 months. Additionally, factors like the chip shortage and regulatory headwinds in China negatively impacted investor

The ongoing feud between China’s tech companies and the Chinese government continues to dominate investors’ view of these firms. Beijing has, in particular, targeted tech companies that it feels are involved in anti-competitive practices.

But there’s also plenty of FUD surrounding DIDI stock.
