The last thing United Airlines (NASDAQ:UAL) stock needs now is controversy. However, it seems that the carrier is involved in a scandal that’s grabbing the headlines. Still, this probably won’t have a long-term negative impact on UAL stock. Indeed, the shares are worth a “B” rating because United Airlines offers an interesting clean-energy angle for

After getting burned by the latest with the “student loan saga,” SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) investors have found a new reason to remain bullish on SOFI stock. That would be news of insider buying of the fintech firm’s shares, by CEO Anthony Noto. As InvestorPlace’s Eddie Pan reported last week, Noto has purchased $7.4 million worth

It’s no secret that investors of California-based neo-banking firm SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) have struggled in 2022. Yet, now is a time to hold SOFI stock, not dump it. If you need a real confidence-booster, check out the insider buying activity and you’ll be convinced to stay in the trade with SoFi Technologies. Is it possible

There’s no denying it: Google and YouTube parent company Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL) is, like many other technology names, out of favor on Wall Street. However, this isn’t a valid reason to give up on GOOG stock. Alphabet’s still a tech leader and innovator, and if you don’t take a share position now, you’ll probably regret

Although geopolitics and brewing ideological directives (such as initiatives to combat climate change) cloud the longer-term trajectory of hydrocarbons, the reality is that investors can reasonably have confidence in the top oil stock predictions for 2023. Essentially, the underlying resources offer a mixture of infrastructural support and high energy density. Therefore, getting rid of fossil

The markets faced a big shock because of the black swan event of the pandemic. As economies were crawling back to normalcy, the Russia-Ukraine war triggered fresh concerns for several sectors of the economy. The war catalyzed an increase in the list of battered stocks in 2022. With the Russia-Ukraine war, oil prices surged, translating

A growing number of stock market commentators are arguing that a big recovery for Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG,NASDAQ:GOOGL) will happen in the coming year. Yet while at first glance GOOG stock may seemingly have many of the ingredients in place to make such a comeback, it’s far from a given. Sure, despite all the doom and gloom

Last Wednesday, executives at Meta Materials (NASDAQ:MMAT) finalized a bizarre transaction. In a single stroke, they converted the firm’s entire listed block of preferred MMTLP shares into untradeable common stock of Next Bridge Hydrocarbons, Inc. At first glance, the transaction seems like moving cash from one pocket into another. Meta Materials maintains full control of

At long last, there are two pieces of positive news concerning California-based neo-banking firm SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI). First of all, a high-level executive at the company reportedly purchased a very large number of SoFi Technologies shares. Furthermore, SoFi Technologies is working with Mastercard (NYSE:MA) to offer a buy now, pay later (BNPL) service. These developments suggest it’s

[embedded content] Let’s check in on a stock we haven’t mentioned in a while – Tesla (TSLA). We’ve been bearish on this one for a while. It was the first mover and, really, the only viable competitor in the EV space for years. But since its production ramp in 2019, a lot of competition has

Recently, I begged people not to invest in video game retailer GameStop (NYSE:GME) yet. I suggested that GME stock needs to hit $20 before anyone should jump into the trade. Even after a post-earnings rally, I’m standing by the wait-for-$20 strategy as GameStop’s financials aren’t as stellar as some perma-bulls might assume. Don’t get me wrong

It’s not an exaggeration to say that Google and YouTube parent company Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL) navigated rough economic waters in 2022. That’s good news for GOOG stock traders, however. You now have a prime opportunity to get exposure to a search-engine giant as well as a major competitor in cloud computing and cyber-defense. Even the most

Streaming stocks and the surrounding industry is learning what those of us on the printed web learned over 20 years ago. In a world of unlimited content, the limiting factor is time. The hope was that the cable packages of the past might be resurrected online, consumers paying just as much as they formerly did,

According to the perma-bulls, Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) made a brilliant move in adding commercial-supported membership tiers recently. However, NFLX stock is still far from a real recovery, and Netflix management’s latest ideas aren’t a guarantee of success. Even the much-touted ad-supported service strategy could backfire. People sometimes call Netflix the streaming king, but this is now a

Tech stocks, especially those trading at high valuations, have plunged significantly this year amid a challenging macro environment. Recent remarks by Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell about slowing down the pace of rate hikes provided some relief to investors. However, Powell cautioned that the monetary policy could stay restrictive until there are signs of inflation

Walt Disney (NYSE:DIS) stock has had a rocky 2022, down nearly 40% year to date. This older company is undergoing a very recent transition. Robert Iger returned to the company’s CEO role and Bob Chapek was ousted after only a couple of years. Is this the bullish catalyst that so many investors are counting on? Be

Will Google and YouTube parent company Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL) join the Big Tech layoff club? It’s a valid question, but GOOG stock investors shouldn’t worry too much. If there is a large-scale workforce reduction at Google, it’s a sign that the company is being proactive in navigating a challenging economy. Don’t misunderstand — layoffs aren’t

It hasn’t been a good year for growth stocks. The iShares S&P 500 Growth exchange-traded fund (NYSEARCA:IVW) is down nearly 25% with one month to go in 2022. Some of the worst performers from this ETF are going to need a new CEO. Before I come up with my three names of CEOs that need

Given the fact that Nio (NYSE:NIO) stock is down year-to-date, eager investors may be tempted to take a long position now. However, this is actually a time to exercise caution. For one thing, China’s on-and-off zero-Covid policies could throw a wrench into the works. Besides, Nio’s financials are less than ideal, especially when it comes

There’s a one-two punch of unfavorable news for SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI), courtesy of the U.S. government. First of all, President Joe Biden’s administration is extending the moratorium on federal student loan repayment requirements. Also, a group of senators sent a letter to SoFi, requesting to review the neo-banking firm’s cryptocurrency-market dealings. These developments make it extremely
