The energy sector continues to be challenging for investors to navigate. Crude oil prices peaked at $122 a barrel in June 2022 after Russia invaded Ukraine. Since then, prices for crude have dropped below $70 a barrel, rebounded to more than $90, and have now settled right around $80 per barrel. After 2022 record profits,

The electric car market in the United States is highly competitive. But it might be even more fierce in China… and that’s bad news for Shanghai-based EV maker Nio (NYSE:NIO). Nio, which makes the ET5 electric sedan and EC7 SUV, has a LOT of rivals that it’s fighting for market share. There’s Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) of

The market has begun to rebound in recent days due to the U.S. Federal Reserve keeping interest rates steady, signaling the rate hike cycle has possibly come to an end. This is a welcome change since the sharp sell-off that began in late July triggered by inflation fears and the potential impact on elevated rates

AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC) has struggled for some time, with attempts to find a silver lining coming up short. Recent efforts, like promoting Taylor Swift’s Era’s Tour film, may not save this company from what appears to be an eventual delisting. Indeed, Moody’s downgraded AMC’s credit rating to ‘junk’ in April, and plenty of analysts continue

Last month, Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) stock reached a new milestone, but investors are not celebrating, given that LCID continues its steady slide. This one-time “too hot to touch” EV play has dropped below $5 per share, putting it into “penny stock territory.” Sure, with the stock now down to mid single-digit prices, contrarians may eye

AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC) stock has seen a surge of bullish price action in 2023 so far, with AMC stock once again topping the $10 per share level.

The flying car market is one of the most hyped, anticipated sectors in the transportation industry. However, investors should be wary of the high risks and uncertainties involved in this nascent and unproven field. True, some analysts predict flying cars will revolutionize urban mobility and create a multi-billion-dollar market. For example, the electric vehicle (EV)

A “Robinhood (NASDAQ:HOOD) stock” is one with bad fundamentals small investors buy anyway to squeeze shorts and “get the man.” It’s practically a synonym for a trade made by dumb money. Robinhood is also a Robinhood stock. Since its first day’s close of $35.15 on July 5, 2021, shares are down 73%. In 2023 they’re

The cryptocurrency market witnessed 37% year-to-date growth in 2023. However, the bullish market can mask the weakness of some assets. Investors should consider shedding unwanted cryptocurrencies as we approach 2024. Better yet, they should take note of which cryptos to avoid in the coming year. All the cryptocurrencies mentioned in this article, in my view,

Nio (NYSE:NIO) has performed poorly over the past few months. Although shares in the China-based EV maker have found support in recent trading days, I wouldn’t assume that the dust has settled with NIO stock. Yes, per the latest headlines, it may seem as if the situation will improve from here for Nio. The company

ChargePoint (NYSE:CHPT) is an exciting company in a dynamic industry. But the leading operator of electric vehicle charging networks is not a stock for anyone faint of heart to own or trade. Shares of ChargePoint have been incredibly volatile this year. Sure, it’s up more than 25% this week as investors have cheered the Federal

Artificial intelligence is poised to be a major technological breakthrough, revolutionizing sectors such as healthcare and industrials. One of the companies that has seen significant interest in this realm is C3.ai (NYSE:AI), a company specializing in AI software development.

Many companies need a solid fourth quarter to make their numbers for the year. However, not all consumer discretionary stocks are good choices. There are many factors that can pull consumer

ChargePoint Holdings (NASDAQ:CHPT) faces a challenging scenario as its stock experiences a significant decline. In the past month, CHPT shares have tumbled from over $40 per share to approximately $2.50 per share, sparking contrarian considerations. However, this downward spiral is not solely a result of broader market trends; substantial company-specific issues fuel it. Despite recent “Buy”

Electric vehicle (EV) battery technology company QuantumScape (NYSE:QS) does certain things well. However, making money isn’t one of those things. The company also isn’t good at providing value to its shareholders, as QS stock hasn’t been a winner lately. Frankly, investors should look elsewhere as QuantumScape has financial issues that can’t be ignored. QuantumScape rarely updates

Tech firm Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ:PLTR) had a turbulent few years. On a year-to-date basis, PLTR stock has surged more than 130%. However, this stock remains more than 50% below its 2021 peak. Historical issues with overvaluation, low margins, and profitability seem to be improving with AI technology. However, this stock remains a no-go for many

Following the rise in interest rates, many stocks, including shares in large, well-known companies, now sport relatively high dividend yields. Yet before you decide to buy, beware of the names best left as dividend stocks to sell. When you think of the phrase “dividend trap,” what may first come to mind are stocks in companies

While the jury’s still out whether the economy and the market is headed for a soft or hard landing, as interest rates remain high, that doesn’t mean you should forget about which stocks to avoid. Even as it’s possible that recent fears of another downturn for stocks may prove to be an overreaction, there are
