Although the next round of key inflation reports could change their tune, Federal Reserve officials for now remain adamant about raising interest rates to curb inflation. In fact, if they do it’s important to stay away from the worst dividend stocks for rising rates. Sure, plenty of contrarian investors believe that the Fed is on

There’s nothing wrong with believing in sustainable technology. However, you might want to think twice before considering an investment in electric vehicle (EV) battery technology company QuantumScape (NYSE:QS). It’s hard to justify buying QS stock when QuantumScape’s operational progress is moving at a slow pace. Plus, the company’s financials are far from ideal. Generally speaking, being

There’s no denying that electric vehicle battery technology company QuantumScape (NYSE:QS) is an early mover in a high-conviction niche industry. QS stock investors have every right to be excited about QuantumScape’s advancements in developing solid-state lithium batteries. QuantumScape’s path to product commercialization doesn’t seem to have any end in sight. Financial traders should remain cautious for

John Chen, the CEO of BlackBerry (NYSE:BB), is highly optimistic about the company, but that’s to be expected. Unfortunately for BB stock investors, BlackBerry’s fiscal data doesn’t show that the company is successfully transitioning into a modern technology business of the 2020s. It feels like a million years ago that former President Barack Obama had

I’m usually a big fan of tech stocks. The tech sector enjoyed huge returns from 2016 to 2021, as seen by the tech-heavy Nasdaq composite’s gain of more than 200%. And even though the sector has been down since those heady days, I’m not ready to write off the entire sector. You have to know

Block (NYSE:SQ), parent company of online payment processor Square, has been the subject of many headlines in recent weeks, and not for the best of reasons. Accusations from a prominent short-seller (Hindenburg Research), while not necessarily proven, have attracted a lot of attention and placed pressure on SQ stock. However, if you believe that these

On the surface, SoFi’s (NASDAQ:SOFI) first-quarter results looked quite good. In fact, the company delivered beat-and-raise earnings which tend to thrill investors. But since the lender reported the results on May 1, the shares have tumbled 18%. There appears to be a specific reason for the decline, and the issue could be a huge red

Are we heading for a semiconductor stocks crash? It’s increasingly looking that way. After the semiconductor shortages of 2021 and 2022, the pendulum has swung sharply in the other direction. People have gone back to school, returned to the office, and so on, alleviating the need for so much extra computing technology at home. Meanwhile,

As was widely expected, the U.S. Federal Reserve again raised interest rates, lifting its key rate by 25 basis points to a range of 5% to 5.25%. Interest rates in America are now at their highest level in 16 years. While higher rates might tame inflation in the long run, they are likely to slow

Artificial intelligence (AI) stocks are one of the hottest trends of the year, and with good reason. Almost every week, it seems, we see some exciting new development with AI-powered text, images and even animation. But amid the hype, there are a number of overvalued AI stocks that are ripe for a sell-off. AI is

I have good news and bad news for the owners of Lucid (NASDAQ:LCID) stock. On the one hand, I’m pleased with the company’s decision to launch a unique electric vehicle, as I believe that being unique is one way to succeed in an extremely competitive niche. And there’s no doubt that the luxury EV sedan

Given the S&P 500’s 7.3% year-to-date advance and the threat of a recession in the second half of the year or early 2024, overvalued S&P 500 stocks are more prevalent than investors realize.   At the end of February, JPMorgan Chase strategists suggested that because of real interest rates, stocks were 2.5 times too expensive. “Risk-reward for

The stock market is back on the upswing. Traders are feeling more optimistic, and perhaps with good reason. But this enthusiasm has run much too far in some sectors. These seven stocks to sell, in particular, are trading at prices far above levels that analysts consider to be reasonable. For this list, we’ll be using Morningstar

While not repeating the mantra that electric vehicles are the future can get you into trouble with the sector loyalists, we must at least agree that at least some enterprises deserve the title of worst EV stocks to sell. Fundamentally, while the underlying technology facilitates many opportunities, competition will likely be consolidated. It happened with

Some analysts aren’t optimistic about electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:RIVN). Why is that? There are various reasons, but the concerns often revolve around Rivian Automotive’s vehicle production and deliveries, compared to the amount of money the company is actually making on those vehicles. If Rivian continues to burn cash and maintain unacceptably low

As investors prepare for a sustained bull run in 2022, following a rocky 2022, it’s imperative to keep an eye on the market and reevaluate one’s portfolio. This involves the identification of the worst stocks to buy now and steering clear of those with red flags and warning signs. A lot has changed in the

Between macro uncertainty and this year’s banking crisis, it’s no surprise that fintech stocks like Block (NYSE:SQ), after performing poorly in 2022, have continued to underperform thus far in 2023. Despite this, some may be confident that a boost for SQ stock is just around the corner. That is, the company, which owns digital financial

GameStop (NYSE:GME) decided to give up on the potentially lucrative consumer electronics/technology e-commerce market prematurely, while the sales of its brick-and-mortar stores will probably drop going forward. Moreover, after the interactions that GameStop Chairman Ryan Cohen had with Bed Bath & Beyond (NASDAQ:BBBY) over the last year, I’m not very optimistic about his management skills or

Investors who’ve held bank stocks have been on a roller coaster since last month, especially with certain banks such as the Silicon Valley Bank (OTCMKTS:SIVBQ) and Silvergate Capital (NYSE:SI). However, big banks and their stocks haven’t been spared the pain either. Many top-tier banks having nearly a fifth of their market capitalization wiped out within

Electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:RIVN) has plenty of skeptics. It’s been difficult to defend RIVN stock as it has lost ground in 2023 so far. Unfortunately, the outlook isn’t bright, as Rivian Automotive’s expenditures are disproportionately high. This isn’t to suggest that Rivian Automotive is doing everything wrong. For example, it’s notable that
