Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) stock has had a good run. Apple has been one of the most successful companies in the world, dominating the smartphone and tablet markets for more than decade. Recent challenges have cast doubt on the company’s future growth prospects. Despite new iPhone and iPad releases, Apple’s revenue growth remained unchanged, disappointing investors. The
Blue-chip stocks typically make for solid long-term investments. These are stocks of companies that have been around for years, have well-known brands and products, are profitable, and have a track record of rewarding shareholders with dividends and share buybacks. However, not all blue-chip names have done well coming out of the Covid-19 pandemic. Stocks of many household

Even though Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) is the most famous electric vehicle manufacturer in the U.S., this doesn’t mean the company is problem-free. Indeed, there may be valid reasons ARK Investment Management, whose CEO is Cathie Wood, sold shares of TSLA stock. It’s worthwhile for prospective investors to get the full story instead of jumping into a trade
With 2023 slowly coming to an end, consider identifying stocks for potential sales before 2024 begins. Economic uncertainties, inflation and interest rate concerns contribute to stock market volatility. That’s especially true with underperforming speculative growth stocks, so accepting losses and realigning portfolios may be wise. Here are three overhyped stocks you should steer clear of
In prior coverage of QuantumScape (NYSE:QS), I have laid out a cut-and-dry bear case for the EV battery developer’s shares. QS stock is not worth the risk due to uncertainty in executing its business plan, high cash burn, shareholder dilution, and competition from other battery developers. That said, I agree that there is validity to
Disney’s (NYSE:DIS) cost-cutting and a strong rebound in its International Parks business made its third-quarter results look decent. However, over the longer term, the profits of the company’s TV networks will probably sink sharply, and the firm still has not devised viable ways to offset those likely declines. Given those points, I believe that DIS
Iconic “Big Short” investor, Michael Burry, has shorted these chip stocks to sell. The latest round of 13-F filings revealed that Burry’s Scion Capital Management shorted Blackrock’s (NYSE:BLK) iShares Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:SOXX) with 100,000 Put options. The nominal value of Burry’s short position stands at approximately $47 million, which is nearly half of Scion’s liquidity. As such,
Recently, it’s become clear that nearly every Big Tech firm is working toward manufacturing their own AI chips. That’s why we’ve been worried about the world’s most dominant AI chipmaker, Nvidia (NVDA), for a few weeks now. But this past weekend – amidst the drama at OpenAI – we realized the true reason why investors
With U.S. electric vehicle demand waning, investors must be choosy with their stock picks. EV manufacturer Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) has its positive points, such as powerful vehicles with impressive ranges. Unfortunately, these positive points aren’t enough to make LCID stock a worthy pick for 2024. As we’ll see, Lucid Group is getting ready to introduce a new vehicle with
With inflation showing signs of cooling, and hope the Federal Reserve may be wrapping up its rate-hiking campaign, markets have been moving aggressively higher. While that’s been great news for most stocks, there are still a few top stocks to sell immediately. Stocks to Sell: Safety Shot (SHOT) Source: shutterstock.com/Leonid Sorokin One of the top
With its sales slumping, margins declining, and competitive advantage deteriorating, now is not the time to buy Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock. Despite CEO Elon Musk’s cult-like following among retail investors, Tesla is not in a good position. Demand for EVs is waning, and Tesla slashed prices. This has led to declining profit margins at a critical
Markets are back in the swing of things, as last week’s close marked a 7% surge since October’s low. Though investors are thankful for these Thanksgiving stocks, you should still trim these turkeys from your portfolio. As the saying goes, a rising tide lifts all boats. Likewise, some of these turkeys saw a hefty share
Editor’s note: “This New AI Chatbot Is Ushering In Nvidia’s End” was previously published in earlier in November 2023. It has since been updated to include the most relevant information available. The world’s richest man just unveiled his own AI chatbot. And it may present an existential threat to the world’s most powerful AI company.
Investors are showing signs of shifting from growth stocks to income or value-focused investments amid concerns about higher interest rates. The 10-year Treasury note reaching 5% is prompting a risk-off approach. Inflation persists, and corporate results, along with rising bond yields and geopolitical tensions, are pressuring markets downward. Several formerly high-flying growth stocks may face
Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) reported fairly dismal third-quarter results. Worse, the automaker looks poised to continue losing significant market share in both the U.S. and China. Meanwhile, the valuation of TSLA stock remains very high. Not helping, the firm also faces meaningful regulatory threats. Given these points, I believe that investors should sell TSLA stock at this
Despite market optimism surrounding the Fed’s potential rate cut, some, like these telecom stocks to sell, have sunk to dangerous levels. One of the industries that got our attention is telecommunications. The S&P Telecom Select Industry Index has grossly underperformed YTD, returning -13.84% to investors. This index includes the three major telecom companies, Verizon (NYSE:VZ),
Although considered a leading player in the electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure amid the growing popularity of EVs, ChargePoint Holdings (NYSE:CHPT) faces challenges. The stock has plummeted by 65% this year due to delayed compatibility with Tesla’s charging network, significant stock dilution and distant profitability prospects. Investors should exercise caution and consider these risks before
Betting a few dollars on an exciting startup like electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Mullen Automotive (NASDAQ:MULN) might seem harmless. Yet, I encourage you to find another investment than MULN stock. In all likelihood, Mullen Automotive will continue to disappoint its shareholders. Besides, the last thing you need in your account is a capital loss. Don’t get the
