QuantumScape (NYSE:QS) stock has bounced back after sliding post-earnings late last month, but it probably won’t last.

From $47 billion to nearly worthless. That is the sad tale of WeWork (NYSE:WE), the co-working company and former unicorn darling of Silicon Valley. WeWork filed for Ch. 11 bankruptcy protection on Monday night. It’s been a stunning fall from grace for the company, co-founded by the enigmatic Adam Neumann. WeWork attracted a lot of

The energy sector continues to be challenging for investors to navigate. Crude oil prices peaked at $122 a barrel in June 2022 after Russia invaded Ukraine. Since then, prices for crude have dropped below $70 a barrel, rebounded to more than $90, and have now settled right around $80 per barrel. After 2022 record profits,

Investors face a complicated picture heading into the holiday season. War, inflation, high interest rates, and a potential recession are among the risk factors on the horizon.

The rollercoaster ride of the cannabis market has left many in the investing world dazed and confused. The sector’s volatility is marked by winds of optimism followed by spells of disappointment.

Bankruptcy filings are on the rise. As the economic good times of the past few years are seemingly drawing to a close, it’s creating trouble for many publicly traded companies.

A few years ago, when the interest-rate policy was quite different, it might have made sense to invest in electric vehicle (EV) charging equipment provider ChargePoint (NYSE:CHPT). However, financial traders must adapt to changing environments. The current circumstances don’t favor a long position in CHPT stock. Now, I’m not suggesting that ChargePoint is a terrible company or anything

Let’s not sugarcoat it – the topic of stocks to sell sucks. Obviously, with any talks about removing securities from your portfolio, you’re dealing with other people’s money and their aspirations.

The electric car market in the United States is highly competitive. But it might be even more fierce in China… and that’s bad news for Shanghai-based EV maker Nio (NYSE:NIO).

AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC) has struggled for some time, with attempts to find a silver lining coming up short. Recent efforts, like promoting Taylor Swift’s Era’s Tour film, may not save this company from what appears to be an eventual delisting.

Last month, Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) stock reached a new milestone, but investors are not celebrating, given that LCID continues its steady slide. This one-time “too hot to touch” EV play has dropped below $5 per share, putting it into “penny stock territory.” Sure, with the stock now down to mid single-digit prices, contrarians may eye

The stock market has seen a lot of volatility in the past few months, with a sharp pullback in October that erased some of the gains from earlier in the year. Many investors wonder if this is a temporary correction or a sign of more trouble ahead. This has led to the list of stocks

AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC) stock has seen a surge of bullish price action in 2023 so far, with AMC stock once again topping the $10 per share level.

The flying car market is one of the most hyped, anticipated sectors in the transportation industry. However, investors should be wary of the high risks and uncertainties involved in this nascent and unproven field. True, some analysts predict flying cars will revolutionize urban mobility and create a multi-billion-dollar market. For example, the electric vehicle (EV)
