Stocks to sell

Between macro uncertainty and this year’s banking crisis, it’s no surprise that fintech stocks like Block (NYSE:SQ), after performing poorly in 2022, have continued to underperform thus far in 2023. Despite this, some may be confident that a boost for SQ stock is just around the corner. That is, the company, which owns digital financial

As investors prepare for a sustained bull run in 2022, following a rocky 2022, it’s imperative to keep an eye on the market and reevaluate one’s portfolio. This involves the identification of the worst stocks to buy now and steering clear of those with red flags and warning signs. A lot has changed in the

Investors who’ve held bank stocks have been on a roller coaster since last month, especially with certain banks such as the Silicon Valley Bank (OTCMKTS:SIVBQ) and Silvergate Capital (NYSE:SI). However, big banks and their stocks haven’t been spared the pain either. Many top-tier banks having nearly a fifth of their market capitalization wiped out within

GameStop (NYSE:GME) decided to give up on the potentially lucrative consumer electronics/technology e-commerce market prematurely, while the sales of its brick-and-mortar stores will probably drop going forward. Moreover, after the interactions that GameStop Chairman Ryan Cohen had with Bed Bath & Beyond (NASDAQ:BBBY) over the last year, I’m not very optimistic about his management skills or

The fall of Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock is inevitable. At its April 25 opening price of about $161 per share, Tesla had a market cap of about $515 billion. That’s more than all of China’s electric car industry put together, three times more than the rest of the U.S. auto industry. It’s about 2.5 times the value of Toyota

In recent weeks, the Nio (NYSE:NIO) stock slide has continued, following a poorly-received monthly deliveries report Bullish bottom-fishers and dip-buyers may still believe this is prime time to accumulate a position. Mostly, because of their view that the China-based electric vehicle (or EV) maker will experience a strong growth resurgence later this year. As you

With the broader equity indices struggling for traction, rising recession fears brings the glaring spotlight back on so-called real estate bubble stocks. Due to the unique circumstance underlying the Covid-19 crisis and subsequent governmental response, housing prices skyrocketed. In turn, several companies plying their trade in the arena benefitted. But as the saying goes, all

Earlier this month, I discussed how negative sentiment about Plug Power (NASDAQ:PLUG) shares continues to increase. As the hydrogen fuel cell company continues to execute poorly, sell-side analysts continue to grow bearish on PLUG stock. Investors have kept on abandoning it in droves, resulting in PLUG falling back to sub-$10 per share price levels. Shares

With the market still absorbing the key takeaways from its latest financial results, Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) continues to trend lower. Granted, these more recent moves with TSLA stock have been relatively mild. At least, compared to the stock’s double-digit drop immediately after the electric vehicle maker’s quarterly earnings release on April 19. Still, while perhaps not

The other shoe has officially dropped for Bed Bath & Beyond (NASDAQ:BBBY) stock. As you’ve likely heard, the struggling retailer filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on April 23. With the market expecting such a development over the past few months, the official news has had less of an impact on the price of BBBY stock

Loyal investors of electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) have already been through the wringer. Yet, it’s probably only going to get worse for LCID stock. As we’ll see, May 8 will be an important, and possibly terrible, day for Lucid Group and its stakeholders. Moreover, competition from the likes of Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) will only

In certain circumstances, high-yield dividend stocks can be great opportunities. However, often, they are well within the “stocks to avoid” category. Mainly, because of their high risk of being so-called “dividend traps.” A stock that is falling because of either a dividend cut, or the growing likelihood of a dividend cut. This creates a double-whammy

The shares of electric-vehicle maker Mullen Automotive (NASDAQ:MULN) have tumbled to less than 10 cents. This clearly indicates that institutional investors seem to have lost confidence in Mullen and MULN stock. In another indication of large investors’ lack of confidence in the automaker, several such investors have been given the right to sell large shares in exchange

With Bed Bath & Beyond (NASDAQ:BBBY) facing multiple, likely insurmountable challenges, the retailer appears to be headed straight to bankruptcy. Given the tremendous volatility and unpredictable nature of the stocks of bankrupt companies, I recommend that all investors immediately sell BBBY stock. Among the seemingly insolvable problems that Bed Bath and Beyond is facing are an inability

At the start of 2023, sentiment for Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) shifted from bearish back to bullish. This resulted in TSLA stock zooming back from the low-$100s, back to the low-$200s in a matter of weeks. Throughout February and March, Tesla held on to the bulk of these gains. This was in contrast to other electric vehicle

After bouncing back strongly at the start of 2023, AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC) stock has traded sideways in more recent months. Currently at around $5 per share, AMC stock may look tempting, for risk-hungry investors bullish that the popular “meme stock” will soon resume making big moves. Unfortunately, while shares in the movie theater chain may

The Federal Reserve’s recent prediction of a potential recession in the United States this year has brought attention to a fresh batch of dividend stocks to avoid. These stocks may already be facing challenges, and a downturn in economic activity could be the catalyst that pushes them over the edge. Identifying these issues early allows investors to potentially rotate

Plug Power (NASDAQ:PLUG) stock was off to a strong start back in January. However, sentiment changed dramatically starting in early February. This has resulted in a more than 50% price decline for PLUG stock in a little over two months. During this time frame, this widely followed hydrogen stock has tumbled from above $18 per

This year, household goods retailer Bed Bath & Beyond (NASDAQ:BBBY) faces substantial financial problems, and BBBY stock investors are deep underwater. Granted, the company hasn’t officially declared a Chapter 11 filing. However, it’s probably only a matter of time before Bed Bath & Beyond spirals into bankruptcy. So, if you’re a current shareholder, consider hitting the

As much as I love dividend stocks, it’s important to note that I don’t love all dividend stocks; and you shouldn’t either. There are certainly some dividend stocks to avoid out there. Dividends are great. They are quarterly (or sometimes monthly) payouts to investors as a reward for holding a stock. Retirement investors love dividends
