Stocks to sell

It has been a rough past couple of years for Tilray Brands (NASDAQ:TLRY), but more recently, things have started to look up for TLRY stock. Last month, shares in the Canada-based cannabis company began to rally again, on the heels of a well-received quarterly earnings release. Last week, shares spiked in price yet again, except

Investors seeking defensive exposure in this market may turn their attention to mining socks. These companies, involved in locating, extracting, and processing valuable minerals vital for global industries, play an essential role as a growth engine for the global economy. Without various important base metals, entire industries wouldn’t be possible. Indeed, these companies may be

Chimerix (NASDAQ:CMRX), like most clinical-stage biotech stocks, is without question a high-risk play. Yet in contrast to other biotechs, where high potential rewards can outweigh this high risk, that is not necessarily the case here with CMRX stock. Sure, on paper, Chimerix’s future prospects appear very promising. Last year, the company sold a treatment that

By no means is this discussion about meme stocks to sell an indication that you should avoid the sector altogether. Sometimes, it’s good to just have fun (responsibly, of course) in the market. Ultimately, you never know if that wild contrarian wager might turn into something substantive. That, of course, is the main temptation of

As much as I love good dividend stocks, I have very little patience for F-rated dividend stocks that do nothing but drag your portfolio down. As an investor, you deserve better! A great dividend stock can make all the difference in your portfolio. By reinvesting dividends, growth investors can increase their positions and investing power

For a hot minute, Wall Street loved electric vehicle (EV) battery technology company QuantumScape (NYSE:QS). Then, financial traders turned against the company and QS stock quickly coughed up its gains. Frankly, it’s just too risky to invest in QuantumScape now. Don’t get the wrong idea. The investing community is fickle, and any stock is susceptible

It’s the height of summer vacation season, and the stock market is taking a breather after its major rally earlier in the year. For active traders, much of the excitement has moved to penny stocks, with many low-priced equities making huge moves in recent weeks. Investors should avoid the urge to go plunging too aggressively

With pharmaceutical companies, it’s all about the pipeline of new medications. Drugmakers, and their pharma stocks, are judged based on sales of current medications and potential sales of future prescriptions. Analysts and investors alike are always on the lookout for the next blockbuster drug. This helps to explain why the stocks of pharmaceutical companies with

The U.S. equity valuations continue their remarkable trend upward, well beyond anyone’s expectations in 2023. The major indices appreciated amid expectations of a soft landing for the economy as the Federal Reserve battles inflation. While inflation still sits above the Federal Reserve’s target, it is well below where it was 12 months ago. However, despite

Electric vehicles (EVs) are all across the globe and EV adoption is on the rise. With government incentives and price cuts, we will see mass EV adoption in the next five years. EV makers are making the most of this opportunity and ramping up production to meet the rising demand. However, not all EV makers

With hopes for lower interest rates and normalizing economic conditions, real estate investment trusts (REITs) have been moving higher. However, as macro uncertainties mount, there are now plenty of REITs to avoid in August. After all, REITs are highly sensitive to interest rates (rising when rates fall, sinking when rates rise). Plus, if it turns

It may seem like an odd time to be writing about risky energy stocks. After all, the United States Energy Information Administration (EIA) removed all doubt as to the direction of oil prices for the remainder of 2023 at least. The agency is expected to forecast that domestic oil production is expected will rise by

As we soar into the year’s second half, the seemingly sunny skies for airline stocks appear cloudier. The hot streak in the first half will likely tempt investors to buckle in for a profitable journey. However, as we look closer, the proverbial airline stocks to avoid signs may be urgently flashing. Travel may have jetted

By now, you’ve likely heard about ongoing strikes affecting entertainment stocks. After actors joined the writer picket lines, most entertainment stocks fell sharply. The fallout was broad, affecting legacy media franchises and streaming platforms alike. But continuing strikes aren’t all that’s suppressing entertainment stocks, and the future is bleak for legacy companies reliant on cable

Consumer stocks have been a mixed bag for investors in 2023. The Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSEARCA:XLY) is up 34.5% so far this year, making it the S&P 500’s third-best-performing sector. Meanwhile, the Consumer Staples Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSEARCA:XLP) is basically flat. Today’s list of consumer stocks to sell contains a discretionary high-flyer,

Last month, electric vehicle stocks spiked in price, including Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID). There are two reasons why LCID stock and other names in the space moved higher. For one, there were rising hopes of improvements ahead for the two biggest issues weighing over both the economy and the stock market: high inflation and high interest

The last things you need to have distressing your portfolio this month are F-rated stocks. I believe the stock market is in a good place, and economists believe that third-quarter GDP could exceed the 2.4% the U.S. recorded in Q2. But if you have F-rated stocks, your August will be an expensive waste. Think of

The EV market has evolved, and Lucid Group’s (NASDAQ:LCID) stock performance no longer relies solely on hype. However, recent data indicates that Lucid hasn’t met expectations. With strong competition in the EV industry and what I’d suggest is only a “D” grade in stock performance, investors might find better opportunities elsewhere. The EV stock faces

As the market heads into the dog days of summer, investors may be putting their portfolios on autopilot and waiting to get direction in the Fall. That may be fine for some stocks. But if you own basic materials stocks, you should take one more look before holding through the summer. While there are some

With the new bull market taking a storm, now might be a good time to consider tech stocks to sell. 2022 was a rough year for investors, as the global economy battled with high inflation and rising interest rates. The stock market fell more than 20%, and small to large-cap tech stocks saw some of their largest
