As the market shakes out, it’s time to consider which EV stocks to avoid. It’s no secret that 2023 was an incredibly tough year for the electric vehicle industry. The industry is going through growing pains that have caused material demand issues that continue to reverberate throughout. That truth is reflected perhaps nowhere better than
Stocks to sell
Bargain hunters, beware! The outlook isn’t great for electric vehicle manufacturer Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) stock as the company’s 2023 production and delivery numbers weren’t stellar. Consequently, it’s too risky to go on a bottom-fishing expedition with beaten-down LCID stock. Besides, the EV industry is generally having a demand problem. Giant automakers like Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) should be able to
Anticipating the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approval of a Bitcoin (BTC-USD) ETF, the digital currency exploded from an October low of about $25,000 to a high of $49,954. Investors were hopeful it would open the floodgates for retail and institutional interest. Instead, approval was met with an expected sell-the-news reaction. It sent Bitcoin
Since the great stock market crash of 2022, company performance has been recovering, as evidenced by the record growth of the S&P 500, the peak values of the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the Nasdaq Composite. Investors were rewarded for their resilience and began to feel safe from the downturn. However, the overall market situation
As governments globally endorse and incentivise the adoption of electric vehicles, there is some big money to be made in the industry. Therefore, it’s not surprising that dozens of new companies have emerged globally with focus on EVs. Further, established traditional automakers are making big investments to accelerate the portfolio shift towards electric vehicles. So,
Coinbase (COIN-USD) has become the leading U.S. exchange by trading volume. Over the past 12 months, COIN stock has rebounded by an astonishing 175%. The bullish outlook for 2024 relies on Bitcoin (BTC-USD) surpassing previous highs, with other leading tokens following. Rising crypto prices drive trading volumes, the main source of Coinbase’s revenue and earnings.
Tech equities in the United States sustained a jaw-breaking rally in 2023. The NASDAQ beat all other indices, rising more than 43% for that year. Stocks largely are not off to a great start in 2024. This is mostly due to the inflated valuations many stocks accrued toward the end of last year. However, while
The payments-processing space has become increasingly crowded in the 2020s. Along with that, PayPal (NASDAQ:PYPL) has the additional challenge of transitioning a new CEO and a new chief financial officer (CFO) into those roles at the company. Thus, I view PYPL stock as a “sell” as PayPal’s comeback is far from assured. And, if it happens at all, might
Quantum computing is seen as the next stage of computing and IonQ (NASDAQ:IONQ) rode that wave to huge gains in 2023. But the reality of where the market is at in its life cycle is bringing shares down to earth. This will have important implications for IONQ stock moving forward. After surging 259% last year
C3.ai (NYSE:AI) stock last year became one of the more popular AI plays out there. Compared to other top AI stocks, C3.ai is a considerably smaller enterprise. The stock has a market cap of just $3 billion, and this year the company should generate just $305.5 million in revenue. At the same time, this enterprise
The metaverse has been a hot topic for several years now. Ever since Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerburg renamed his company to Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META), investors have taken this concept seriously. We’ve seen Super Bowl ads and all sorts of other mainstream attention for the metaverse concept. Unfortunately for some, this has led to
American consumers keep on spending. Retail sales throughout the U.S. continue to surprise to the upside. The most recent data from the Commerce Department shows retail sales rose 0.6% in December. This beat economists’ expectations for the holiday shopping season. Recently, some companies have come forward to report holiday sales were better than expected. They
Artificial intelligence is expected to perform many types of jobs that humans currently do. In most cases, that change will greatly help companies since computers are much cheaper to train and maintain than human employees. But what about the firms that currently provide the services that AI will carry out? In the future, instead of
Wall Street seems to have determined that Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN) will be more hurt than helped by the new Bitcoin (CCC:BTC) spot ETFs. Meanwhile, COIN’s valuation remains extremely high, and the potentially ruinous lawsuit against the firm by the Securities and Exchange Commission will soon be prominent in investors’ minds. Most law-abiding COIN users will probably
Investing in high-yield dividend stocks is one of the best ways to accumulate wealth to fund your retirement. For the better part of a century, dividend-paying companies have far outperformed non-payers with less risk. However, not all dividend stocks are created equal. Investors ignore the warning signs they sometimes give off at their peril. Even
The oil market has been on a roller coaster ride in the past few years, with prices fluctuating wildly due to various factors like pent-up travel demand post-COVID and geopolitical tensions between Western nations and Russia. Brent crude prices are now sitting around $78/bbl, well below where it was in mid-September 2023, above $90/bbl. For
It might be tempting to back up the truck and buy Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN) stock because you heard about the approval of spot Bitcoin (BTC-USD) exchange-traded funds. However, I’m offering an unpopular opinion today. COIN stock could quickly retrace much of its rally from last year’s fourth quarter, so this is no time to make any hasty trades. Just
2023 was a rough year for the renewable energy and sustainable investing space. Across wind, solar, lithium and electric vehicle stocks, there was heavy selling. Governments have generally not been as forthcoming with subsidies for green energy as investors had hoped. And with the end of the zero interest rates era, it is increasingly difficult
The work-from-home (WFH) phenomenon has faded tremendously, as many companies, large and small, are ordering their employees to spend at least a few days per week in the office. For example, JPMorgan (NYSE:JPM), Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) and video game maker Activision Blizzard (NASDAQ:ATVI) are among the huge companies ending or greatly curtailing WFH privileges. As a
In December 2022, I discussed three overpaid CEOs and why investors should sell their underperforming stocks. One of the CEOs was Chad Richison, the founder and chief executive of Oklahoma-based Paycom Software (NYSE:PAYC), a cloud-based payroll and human capital management software provider. PAYC stock had gone sideways for 36 months. I wasn’t impressed. Paycom shares
