The most important business of Brazil-based mining company Vale (NYSE:VALE) is iron ore, and the outlook for the rocks is bright.

Earlier last week, Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) briefly eclipsed Intel’s (NASDAQ:INTC) market capitalization of $260 billion. How could a company with 15% of Intel’s revenue and 13% of the operating income share the same market value? NVDA stock insiders didn’t care to ask.

With how much the novel coronavirus has changed the world, there were bound to be a few unlikely investments to become Wall Street’s flavor of the moment.

Of all the bad CEOs who ruled the 2010’s, I think the worst was Virginia Rometty of International Business Machines (NYSE:IBM).

I have to admit, there’s something to be said for Luckin Coffee (OTCMKTS:LKNCY). The company has had an accounting scandal involving millions of fraudulent transactions.

This year is turning into the year of the shale company bust with Whiting Petroleum (NYSE:WLL) standing as a prime example of that ominous trend. Year-to-date, WLL stock is down an astounding 85.15%.

It’s no surprise Penn National (NASDAQ:PENN) stock has held onto its epic gains from the past few months.

It’s perfectly fine to speculate in the cannabis market. However, we don’t want to see you throw good money at bad marijuana stocks. And some of them, unfortunately, don’t look like they’ll survive through the end of 2020. As an informed investor, it’s important to be able to recognize the signs of a troubled company

For anyone that has lived through the Great Recession – or watched the film The Big Short – the words leverage and mortgages in combination tends to at least raise eyebrows, if not send involuntary shudders.
