Compared to other social media stocks, Pinterest (NYSE:PINS) stock is a bit of an oddball. I personally don’t have much use for the platform, but I can see the appeal … somewhat. After all, we could all use a daily dose of inspiration for shopping, relaxing, business and marketing purposes. Still, I’m not the only one

If you told me that Gamestop (NYSE:GME) would be flattish after its earnings, I would not have believed you. GME stock rose just 0.2% on Thursday after reporting its second quarter on Sept. 8.

Blackberry (NYSE:BB), the automotive embedded software company, produced positive free cash flow (FCF) of $74 million last fiscal year ending May 31.

FuelCell Energy (NASDAQ:FCEL) has been a public company for roughly three decades. However, it has yet to find its footing, marked by negative top-line, bottom-line, and cash flow growth. Since the beginning of the year, its performance has been abysmal, with poor operating results in the first half. The third quarter should be more of

Virgin Galactic (NYSE:SPCE) is not that much of a bargain even though it faltered slightly last month. SPCE stock recently peaked at a close of $55.91 on Jun. 25. However, it soon tumbled to as low as $24.25 on Aug. 19. In fact, as of Sept. 7, it only closed somewhat higher at $24.61. I would

On the front-facing side of things, you might not find a better no-brainer (albeit highly speculative) narrative than Zomedica (NYSEAMERICAN:ZOM), the veterinary care specialist focusing on diagnostics platforms.

Social media can be a beautiful thing, providing a platform for everyday individuals to express their opinions on a range of subjects.

Happy Labor Day, everyone! Today is all about recognizing and celebrating the workers who help make America so great – it’s about celebrating their contributions, sacrifices, and efforts.

It’s been a little more than three weeks since Zomedica (NYSEAMERICAN:ZOM) reported its Q2 results.

I have been wrong on Alibaba (NYSE:BABA) thus far. I kept expecting the “Dogs of the Dow” theory to come into play, where underperforming, high-quality tech stocks would fetch a bid. For BABA stock — and others, like Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) until very recently — that hasn’t panned out too well. Source: BigTunaOnline / Shutterstock.com

Let me ask you a simple question: how do you discover new brands and products? Do you still use magazines and physical catalogs? Or are you an Amazon.com person? Maybe you use Google?

Although special purpose acquisition companies, or SPACs, gained notoriety over the trailing year-and-a-half period, they do offer a clear advantage to retail investors. Without these blank-check firms, regular folks may not have a chance to buy names like Skillz (NYSE:SKLZ) stock.

Online personal finance company SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) is one of the most relevant offerings in the market today. As data from the U.S. Census Bureau confirms, the portion of retail transactions conducted via e-commerce channels has exploded.
