Stocks to sell

After a spate of negative news, including missed interest payments and a possible delisting, Exela Technologies (NASDAQ:XELA) just recently had something relatively positive to tell investors. However, don’t expect this development to change the story with XELA stock. On March 6, Exela announced plans to improve its operating performance. While a step in the right

Markets will exploit investors who are too patient and forgiving on companies that are the value traps. These companies mask as deeply discounted companies that appear to have plenty of margin of safety and low risk. Those stocks are cheap for a reason. Their business model lacks a meaningful catalyst that will turn its fortunes

Ahead of Rivian Automotive’s (NASDAQ:RIVN) latest quarterly earnings release late last month, I expected investors would use any negative news as an excuse to bail on RIVN stock. This prediction proved accurate. Although there was good and bad with the early-stage electric vehicle maker’s quarterly numbers, key elements of its updates to guidance underwhelmed. As a

Some folks might fantasize about being a meme-stock hero, but it’s a dangerous game to play. Before you consider buying Bed Bath & Beyond (NASDAQ:BBBY) stock, be sure to conduct your due diligence on the company. In short order, you’ll find that Bed Bath & Beyond is a troubled brick-and-mortar retailer with major financial issues. As

Sometimes, it can be exciting to speculate on small businesses. Yet, the risk-to-reward proposition just isn’t favorable for Exela Technologies (NASDAQ:XELA) stock. Even though the company announced a round of funding, this doesn’t mean Exela’s shareholders should expect a comeback in 2023. Here’s the backstory. Texas-headquartered Exela Technologies specializes in business process automation (BPA). Because this

Artificial intelligence, or AI, has become the next big thing for technology investors. As traders have gotten tired of past themes such as cryptocurrency and Web 3.0, it was time for a new idea to take hold. And AI has done just that. Thanks to ChatGPT, people are getting their first real taste of the

While it’s nice to think that every market idea we buy will become profitable, the harsh reality is that we’ll eventually come face-to-face with the concept of stocks to avoid. That’s not a bad thing. Much like our bodies take in the nutrients it needs and discards the stuff it doesn’t, so it is with

Shares of China-based electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Nio (NYSE:NIO) might look cheap, but are they really? NIO stock traders should exercise caution now, because Nio’s impressive EV-delivery figures aren’t bringing the company any closer to profitability. Not long ago, Nio seemed to struggle with its EV sales. The company’s 8,506 vehicle deliveries in January 2023 compared unfavorably to

Stocks to sell are those that are underperforming and not meeting investors’ expectations. Or, investors may sell stocks because they believe the stock’s future performance is poor. Other times, investors may want to sell the stock to minimize losses and invest elsewhere, or even free up capital. The following are three stocks to sell if you

Electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Lordstown Motors (NASDAQ:RIDE) was mentioned on a number of financial media platforms but not for something positive. Indeed, onlookers might wonder whether there’s something fundamentally wrong with Lordstown’s electric pickup truck, which is called Endurance. Sorry to say it, but RIDE stock investors will need a great deal of endurance to ride

Earnings season is coming to an end and, by all accounts, it was a disappointing period for corporate America. According to data from Bank of America, earnings for the final quarter of 2022 came in 0.1% below analyst forecasts at the start of earnings season. That was the worst quarter since Q1 202o and a

Could Exela Technologies (NASDAQ:XELA) stock literally become a penny stock (as in, worth just a penny per share), or even go to zero? Don’t assume that everything will be all right with Exela Technologies, as the company is prone to fraying fundamentals and ongoing noncompliance with exchange-listing requirements. Based in Texas, Exela Technologies apparently specializes in

I can see why, at first glance, Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) may look appealing right now to some contrarian investors. Following the release of its latest quarterly results, LCID stock has fallen back to single-digit prices. As a speculative growth stock, LCID can make outsized moves in either direction. All it may take for it to

Bloomberg Published an article in February that discussed the failings of the U.S. Military. If you read it, you may immediately want to sell any defense stocks you own. According to the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), if the U.S. were to get into a scrap with China over Taiwan, it would run out of long-range, precision-guided munitions

Based on recent headlines, it’s clear the situation keeps getting worse for Carvana (NYSE:CVNA). So then, why are so many still dabbling in CVNA stock? Buzz surrounding CVNA’s short squeeze potential, for one. Short-term traders have cycled in and out of the stock in recent weeks for this reason. However, some speculators have dived into

Hope springs eternal — among some retail traders, at least — for used-car retailer Carvana (NYSE:CVNA). Yet, a comeback probably isn’t in the cards for CVNA stock. A slew of downward-trending data points cast Carvana in a negative light, and the company’s debt burden threatens Carvana’s viability as a going concern. For what it’s worth,

Sliding lower throughout February, investors in Nio (NYSE:NIO) perhaps were expecting NIO stock to kick off the new month with a big move higher, following the release of the China-based electric vehicle maker’s latest quarterly results. Unfortunately, far from rallying post-earnings, NIO made yet another move lower following the Mar. 1 earnings release. With both

The market’s increasing unwillingness to speculate is a warning for investors to look for EV stocks to sell. The persistently high inflation will force central banks to keep interest rates at current levels of nearly 5.0%. Risk-averse investors are better off holding cash than speculating on sectors that make no money. On the business side

Once one of the hottest electric vehicle stocks around, Lordstown Motors (NASDAQ:RIDE) has experienced a sharp price decline over the past two years. Trading at prices topping $30 per share in 2021, you can buy RIDE stock today for around $1 per share. So, with this sharp price drop, risk/return is highly favorable now, right?

Hedge fund managers sell certain stocks for a variety of reasons. Those reasons can include changes in the company’s financial performance, shifts in market conditions or investor sentiment, or changes in the fund’s investment strategy. There’s little difference between institutions and individuals in that regard. And like all other investors, if a company’s financial performance
