After its March 21 debut, Reddit (NYSE:RDDT) more than doubled from its IPO price. Early investors benefited from rapid growth and a successful IPO. RDDT stock has since declined significantly. While it still trades roughly $10 higher than its $34 per share offering price, it’s one that’s got some downside momentum investors have to consider.

We’re a little more than halfway through first-quarter earnings season, so now is the time to review this earnings season winners and losers. In general, market results have been encouraging so far. Forty-six percent of companies listed on the S&P 500 have reported their quarterly results. Seventy-seven percent beat forecasts with their earnings or profits,

If any company reflects the state of China’s economy, it would be e-commerce and cloud-computing firm Alibaba (NYSE:BABA). Perhaps Alibaba stock is a bullish bet on China’s economic recovery, just as much as a wager on Alibaba as a company. In that light, there are definite risks to investing in Alibaba, though there are also potential rewards.

The stock market has been on a caffeine high since the Federal Reserve promised to cut interest rates. The damaging economic impact of the Fed’s unprecedented ratcheting of rates could be minimized if rate cuts were to begin. Yet the insatiable spending policies of politicians in Washington are keeping inflation high and growing. Fed president

You may already be invested in Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL), and perhaps you’re thinking about starting or adding to a share position. Alphabet stock is a Magnificent Seven member, but not without its problems. Overall, we give it a “B” grade and encourage you to consider both the pros and cons. After all, being a full-on

Tesla‘s (NASDAQ:TSLA) announcement of cutting 10% of its global workforce shook the electric vehicle (EV) market and EV stocks. Amid softening demand for electric cars, Tesla suffered an 8% drop in deliveries in the first quarter. That was the first time it shipped fewer cars in over a decade. But it means Tesla can’t justify

Investor’s Business Daily published an article on April 24 discussing the 10 S&P 500 stocks with the largest losses in market capitalization in 2024. In the second spot is Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock, with a loss of $328 billion or 42%. The only name ahead of Tesla stock is Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), which has lost $433 billion.

I have been down on Palantir stock (NASDAQ:PLTR) for some time. It is, at its heart, a government contractor. Calling it an AI stock doesn’t change that. Military contracting is a profitable but slow-growth business. Palantir brought almost 10% of last year’s $2.25 billion in revenue to the bottom line. The question is always whether

Reddit (NYSE:RDDT) has been quite popular since its launch two decades ago. Indeed, 2023 was a mixed-bag of expectations for Reddit stock, especially when investors saw an $804 million revenue which was accompanied by a $91 million loss. Reddit admitted it was slow to monetize its platform, but expressed optimism about its business potential. The

If you’re only looking for a risk-free, “steady Eddie” financial-sector holding, then you probably don’t want to invest in Robinhood Markets (NASDAQ:HOOD). Bear in mind, Robinhood isn’t a traditional broker and trading platform. Still, risk-tolerant folks may find valid reasons to own Robinhood stock, so we’re assigning it a “B” grade. Robinhood became famous as a

Several months ago, I argued that Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) could “stay magnificent” given broader business initiatives at the time. Much of the momentum was due to AI hype, given the vast amount of data Meta has on literally everything. Nine months ago, any company that simply mentioned AI would jump in share price as hope

Surely, it’s tempting for investors to place huge bets on Taiwan Semiconductor (NYSE:TSM). The company is a chipmaking giant with expectation-beating earnings results. Overeager traders should pay attention to TSM’s outlook for the global chip market. With that in mind, it’s not an ideal time to buy Taiwan Semiconductor stock. It’s been an interesting year

​​​Inflation is here to stay. While down from the historically high levels hit over the past year or so, inflation rates remain elevated and are wearing on the economy. U.S. business activity slowed to a four-month low this month, which has worried the Federal Reserve. It was looking to cut interest rates at least three

Investors circling newly public social media company Reddit (NYSE:RDDT) should hold off on taking a position in the company.Now that the hype surrounding Reddit’s initial public offering (IPO) has died down, Reddit stock has fallen substantially since its market debut in March.

Trade wars are always destructive. The current escalation in the chip wars will be no different. The Biden administration banned the use of equipment from China’s Huawei and ZTE over alleged national security concerns. Semiconductor stocks like Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) were prohibited from selling their high-end chips to China. Now Beijing is retaliating. It is barring

It’s been a month since Boeing (NYSE:BA) CEO Dave Calhoun announced that he would step down at the end of 2024. While his departure wasn’t termed a “firing,” there is no question Calhoun’s name would have been on a list, if there were one, of CEOs that need to be fired.    The embattled company was
