In my previous Palantir Technologies (NYSE:PLTR) article, I emphasized how bearish I am for the stock. This is mainly because I believe there are much better AI companies to consider and invest in.

Speculative meme tokens are unlikely to yield positive surprises. If taking risks, investors are better likely to find deals in other speculative areas of the market, such as penny stocks.

Over the past week, it has appeared QuantumScape (NYSE:QS) shares could end 2023 on a high note. Despite a lack of fresh news, QS stock has climbed from $5.50 to just under $7 per share since late last month.

Warren Buffett wrote an op-ed for The New York Times during the financial markets collapse in 2008 titled, “Buy American.

Buffett’s

Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:RIVN) stock is in a better place than many other EV plays, but that doesn’t make it a buy.

The very sharp increase in interest rates since March 2022 has caused the number of home sales to plunge. That’s because many consumers prefer to stay in their current homes.

Tilray (NASDAQ:TLRY) stock has faced a steep decline, plummeting more than 99% from its $300 2018 peak. The Canadian cannabis market fell short of growth expectations, leading to challenges.

The year 2023 has been a volatile one for the equities markets and investors, especially for those playing in the small-cap space.

However, not all tech stocks have participated

This has been a rough year for the real estate investment trusts. While the S&P 500 index is showing returns of nearly 20% in 2023, many of the top REIT exchange-traded funds are barely holding their own. There are plenty of REITs to avoid these days. REITs own and manage income-generating real estate properties, everything

When an investor’s interest in a company starts to soar due to positive news, an acquisition, an earnings beat, and a number of other events, it usually causes a drastic increase in the underlying stock price. A situation many investors find themselves in is wanting to buy into a company that is on a great

If you’re going to invest in an electric vehicle manufacturer in 2023 and 2024, you need to be selective.

2023 has ended up being a solid year for stocks. Despite inflation, war, and other worrisome headlines, the market indexes managed to shrug off the negativity and appear set to close the year near the highs.

Investor views on the gas market could be better with demand slowing and prices decreasing. The market’s sentiment may continue to linger on the bearish side. The commodity has already accumulated a loss of 17.5% in November. It aligns with the outlook on some companies that operate in the same business due to their close

SoFi (NASDAQ:SOFI) reported solid third-quarter results, and I’m much less worried about the company’s loan portfolio than I was. Still, SOFI stock remains overvalued, making the name unattractive for investors to buy at this point. Strong Q3 Results SoFi’s top line jumped 27% versus the same period a year earlier to $537 million. Meanwhile, EBITDA,

Plenty of fans, known as “Apes,” are rooting for AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC) to succeed in 2024. That’s all fine and well, but AMC stock is on a downtrend and the best grade we can give it is a “D.” It’s not an insult to the company or the “Apes,” but only an assessment that AMC Entertainment doesn’t
