While it continues to represent one of the most popular investment sectors on the market, the industry shaved $4.6 trillion in market capitalization throughout the year. There were thousands of tech employees who suffered from the rampant layoffs throughout the year. And it seems this rout is only
Just because you believe that a market sector will grow in the coming years, doesn’t mean every company deserves your investment capital. A prime example is electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Arcimoto (NASDAQ:FUV). The FUV stock price has already declined substantially, and more downside is likely. After discovering the company’s delivery data and desperate self-preservation tactics,
Based on its performance in recent days, QuantumScape’s (NYSE:QS) appeal as a possible short-squeeze play appears to be fading. The QS stock rally has lost momentum in recent days.

However, as hot as it may appear from the outside, the company appears to be untrustworthy to me. I also
Investors of used-car retailer Carvana (NYSE:CVNA) are, without a doubt, looking for any piece of positive news.

Luxembourg-based electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Arrival (NASDAQ:ARVL) unquestionably wants to sell cars in the U.S. The company has big dreams and some major investors, but does this make ARVL stock a good buy?

On Jan. 20, Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG,NASDAQ:GOOGL) followed the lead of its big tech peers, by announcing large-scale layoffs. While unfortunate for the 12,000 employees now out of work, the question for investors is what it means for GOOG stock going forward.

Electric vehicle manufacturer Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) can enjoy one piece of supposedly positive news. Reportedly, a judge dismissed a fraud-related lawsuit against Lucid.

In a development that was little noticed in the U.S., Vadym Skibitsky, described as “Ukraine’s deputy military intelligence chief,” in early January suggested that Russian President Vladimir Putin could be forced out of power within months.

When I look at this list of dog-eared stocks to sell, I can only shake my head. I like to believe that I’m an optimist when it comes to the stock market – in any market, there are opportunities to buy and add to your portfolio, but some of the names on this list are
Like many other growth stocks, Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) has kicked off the new year with a bang. Since the first trading day of 2023, NVDA stock has rallied by over 21%.

The changing of the calendar has brought a new sentiment to Wall Street. Many of 2022’s biggest losers, such as meme stocks, SPACs and penny stocks, are suddenly enjoying strong rallies once again.
