Stocks to sell

The more speculative EV stocks have performed poorly this year, but Mullen Automotive (NASDAQ:MULN) stock is one of the worst performing of them all. Adjusting for its two massive reverse stock splits over the past ten months, shares have declined by over 99.6%. That right, a near-total wipeout for anyone unfortunate to be holding this

Not every stock is a winner, and exiting positions before they get worse can shield you from losses. Granted, you shouldn’t exit a stock just because of short-term headwinds that 5-10 years can fix. However, the consumer dynamic is shifting, and some companies get left behind or face multi-year recoveries. It’s important to consider the

The third quarter earnings season has revealed that some companies are in trouble. Several high-profile names have reported disappointing financial results that missed Wall Street forecasts by a lot. Many companies issued forward guidance that indicated a slowdown in the economy. The corporate results, combined with rising bond yields and escalating geopolitical risks, are conspiring to push

Over the years, we’ve heard a large number of companies referred to as the next Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA). There’s no doubt that Elon Musk has transformed the vehicle industry. A lot of companies and founders seek to follow in Musk’s footsteps and build their own electric vehicle (EV) empires. However, as with any new industry, there

The EV landscape continues to take shape. That’s great for leading sector stocks like Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) that benefit from strong market share, growing sales, and established brand power.  At the same time, as the market begins to solidify, early aspirants are beginning to fade fast. The field of EV manufacturers is quickly separating the wheat from the

The equities markets, especially the Nasdaq, had shown remarkable resilience and growth since the beginning of 2023. However, things have changed remarkably in the past couple of months. The S&P500 and Nasdaq are only returning 10.0% and 26.8% since the start of the year. In September, for example, these indices returned around 34.1% and 17.6%,

As geopolitical and broad market instabilities heat up, we’ve seen a flight to safety of risk-free assets. The REIT sector has been one of the worst-performing sectors within the S&P 500 in 2023, with higher rates playing a significant role. Certain REITs should be sold in the present market environment of high-interest rates, surging bond

The economy appears to be slowing down. Inflation and higher interest rates are proving to be a big drag on the economic outlook. That could make it a rough time for many dividend stocks. The weakness is particularly stark in consumer-facing industries. Bankruptcy filings have been sharply higher in 2023, led by retailers, and that appears to

Interest rates are soaring, the economy faces many challenges and the Federal Reserve remains aggressive in its campaign to stamp out inflation. Amid this uncertainty, investors are turning to dividend stocks for solid income during these worrisome times. However, you should be careful when picking dividend stocks. Not all income yields are created equal. In

Will global movie-theater chain AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC) get a revenue bump from a few box-office winners? Yes, but this doesn’t mean AMC stock will stage a miraculous recovery in the fourth quarter. For the time being, it’s wise for prospective AMC Entertainment investors to sit on the sidelines and enjoy a movie or two. I’ll admit,

Anheuser-Busch InBev (NYSE:BUD) closed its $113 billion acquisition [pg. 45] of SABMiller on Oct. 10, 2016, a little over seven years ago. In that time, BUD stock has lost approximately 58% of its value.  In 2015, Anheuser-Busch finished the year with $43.6 billion in revenue, while its normalized profit was $8.5 billion for a respectable

Without a doubt, electric vehicle charging station manufacturer ChargePoint (NYSE:CHPT) has disappointed many investors in 2023. CHPT stock has been a poor performer this year, and prudent traders should cut their losses and move on. If you’re not convinced of this, wait until you get the details of ChargePoint’s recent capital-raising efforts. Sure, ChargePoint’s management might

The recent strikes by Kaiser Permanente workers speak to greater structural issues that threaten weaker healthcare stocks in general. It’s clear that healthcare firms are increasingly under greater pressure to improve working conditions. That pressure magnifies issues for firms overall. Such firms can either acquiesce to union demands or face a heightened risk of further

Block (NYSE:SQ), formerly known as Square, definitely isn’t a “Magnificent Seven” stock in 2023. Indeed, SQ stock gets a “D” grade as it’s been a poor performer this year and has poor recovery prospects in the fourth quarter.Frankly, it requires an iron stomach to invest in Block with confidence. You have to be willing to withstand

The fintech sector has grown substantially, with digital services like banking and investing gaining popularity. However, not all fintech stocks will thrive due to challenges like slowing customer growth and squeezed profit margins. Some have surged in value, making them vulnerable to sudden price drops. One fintech stock to avoid is Robinhood (NASDAQ:HOOD), a once-promising

In 2020, global movie-theater chain AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC) was in major trouble because of the Covid-19 lockdowns. Some AMC stock investors hope to participate in an epic comeback story. However, AMC Entertainment still has problems, and I don’t expect this movie to end happily. Meme stock traders haven’t focused on AMC Entertainment much lately. This

While we eagerly wait for the electric vehicle delivery numbers and quarterly results, it is important to keep in mind that several companies will disappoint. There is a positive outlook towards EV stocks and governments across the world are offering incentives to increase the adoption of EVs but there is still a long way to

While a contentious topic, investors seeking long-term success must frequently consider stocks to sell. Similar to changing the oil in a combustion-powered car, you’ve got to keep the overall machinery running well. Just like you (likely) don’t have an emotional attachment to motor oil, you must adopt a similar policy to underperformers. True, we live

While it’s an uncomfortable topic, every investor must face the prospect of stocks to sell. Like it or not, market success doesn’t just come down to picking winners. It also involves letting go of underperforming assets before they sink your portfolio. Let’s imagine that you’re the general manager of a baseball club with a tradition
