Stocks to sell

Back in the last decade, I told anyone who would listen about the great news of Alibaba stock (NASDAQ:BABA). I even bought some shares. Alibaba was one of China’s three “Cloud Emperors.” Its hyperscaled data centers, like those of Tencent (OTCMKTS:TCEHY) and Baidu (NASDAQ:BIDU), were serious threats to Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN), Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT), and Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL,

Owing to their low market capitalization, penny stocks are notoriously volatile. Like altcoins, this drives speculative trading and pump and dump schemes.

There are some pharma stocks to sell in April. Holding these companies is too risky, especially as the industry faces increasing regulatory scrutiny and pricing pressures. Several major pharmaceutical firms are grappling with patent cliffs, where key drug exclusivities are expiring. This opens the door for generic competition. Moreover, with the broader market presenting attractive

Intel stock (NASDAQ:INTC) is synonymous with the semiconductor industry. Their chips power everything, from laptops and desktops, to data centers and immersive gaming experiences.  Once the undisputed king of the semiconductor domain, the company is experiencing major setbacks that challenge its near term growth prospects. This includes the company’s large operating losses, use of debt,

One of the best ideas for surviving market ambiguity is to focus on utility stocks. Since the enterprises underlying this category benefit from a natural monopoly, they effectively command permanent relevance. Still, even this ecosystem can become a short-seller target. Ordinarily, you wouldn’t look for short trades in the regulated power and resource space. Nevertheless,

Xiaomi (OTCMKTS:XIACY), known for its smartphones, is making a bold entry into the electric vehicle (EV) market. The company announced it will launch its first EV at competitive prices, which put several names in the EV stocks to avoid category following the highly successful SU7 launch. Xiaomi co-founder Lei Jun unveiled the SU7 range, with

A March 2024 article on CNBC suggested the EV euphoria is dead. This view was backed by the fact that automakers have been scaling back on their EV expansion plans. Undoubtedly, the industry is suffering from factors that include competition, macroeconomic headwinds, and slower adoption by consumers. However, it’s too early to believe it’s the

Some traders are buying Super Micro Computer (NASDAQ:SMCI) stock because the company sells artificial intelligence enabled servers. They’re looking for the “next” Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA). It’s a dangerous quest, though, and this is the worst possible time to invest Super Micro Computer stock. Truly, this is a recipe for disaster. As we’ll discover, the sentiment and

“Down but not out” may be a great way to describe Nio (NYSE:NIO) stock, down more than 50% on the year. Since the height of its popularity in 2021, shares have fallen by nearly 93%. Headwinds have affected the company’s performance, leading to poor results. While Nio’s management may still be pursuing something it believes

Reddit (NYSE:RDDT) went public less than a month ago, but even in this short span of time, Reddit stock has become one of the most talked-about stocks out there. Based on traditional valuation metrics, RDDT is richly priced. Upon closer inspection, shares may not be too expensive, The company has multiple catalysts that may drive

In January, I published MarketMasterAI’s top 500 stocks to buy for the first half of 2024. The AI-powered system ranked the largest American firms by market capitalization and chose what it believed to be the best investments for the next six months. The first three months have been admittedly mixed. A-grade companies have performed splendidly,

Nio (NYSE:NIO), which at one time traded for as much as $62.84 per share, now trades for under $5 per share, putting NIO stock firmly in penny stock territory. However, investors have rightfully bailed this China-based EV manufacturer. I’m referring to more than just fair weather fans of the stock. As InvestorPlace’s Eddie Pan reported

Semiconductors are being called the “oil of the 21st century.” Much like energy reserves, the U.S. government is securing reliable sources of semiconductors to fuel economic and technological growth. By 2030, the U.S. could produce 20% of the world’s most advanced semiconductors, according to American Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo. The U.S. currently produces between 10%

Down more than 35% on a year-to-date basis, Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) stock has been an under-performer, to say the least. Now, the overall EV sector has been hit hard by a number of headwinds. Some of these are macro and sector-specific. However, like many of the harder-hit EV names, Lucid has production and deliveries problems.

There’s an old Wall Street adage that says “the market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent.” We saw that play out time and again with certain beaten-down stocks. Just when you think they can’t possibly go any lower, they find new depths to plumb. Retail investors often mistake these relentlessly-declining stocks as

Some stocks enjoyed incredible runs during this year’s first quarter. Fueled by hype and speculation and the fear of missing out, a handful of stocks saw their share price more than double, even triple, between January and the end of March. The incredible gains made some investors very wealthy in a short period of time.

The stock market has been in a solid rally since the third quarter of 2023, pushing significant indices to new highs. That upward trajectory also raised company valuations for many stocks, putting investors at risk of inflated stock prices and selloffs.

The healthcare industry has historically provided significant returns to investors, with a predicted CAGR of 12.71% until 2027. Although many successful and profitable companies experience a surge in stock price, the healthcare industry also has many stocks that plummet.
