At the start of the year, I noted Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) as one of seven stocks about to get absolutely crushed. Put simply, this call on TSLA stock is cringe-inducing in hindsight. Since this prediction dropped on Jan. 2, shares in the leading electric vehicle maker have gained by nearly 68%. In my defense, at the

Few companies are truly unique, but Luxembourg-based electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Arrival (NASDAQ:ARVL) is a one-of-a-kind business. If you can handle a high risk level, it might be worthwhile to hold a few shares of ARVL stock this year.

While everyone knows that in order to have a market, there must be bulls and bears, that’s not going to stop people from attempting to garner intense profits from top short-squeeze candidates.

Elon Musk, the chief executive of electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA), recently attempted to reassure jittery investors about potentially flagging vehicle demand. Granted, Musk had some quarterly financial and operational stats he could point to. Nevertheless, this isn’t the right time to significantly add to one’s share position in TSLA stock. Sometimes, it’s hard to

While starting to pull back, Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock has been in hyper-drive since the start of the year. In a matter of weeks, the market has shifted its view on the electric vehicle maker’s prospects, resulting in a big run-up in price for TSLA stock. Before, concerns were running high that Tesla’s days of supercharged

This week is already one of the busier weeks in quite some time. It’s loaded with end-of-the-month fund rebalancing, earnings and economic reports.

Additionally, a fresh capital raise should convince FUV stock traders that Arcimoto is on a path to prosperity in 2023. First things first. Don’t invest in

It might tempt some investors to go long on Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL) now, as many think the company invincible. Yet, GOOG stock traders should be careful as Alphabet isn’t necessarily invincible in the artificial intelligence (AI) market.
