You get what you pay for – you’ve heard this adage before. And in most cases, it’s a true statement, especially in the market.

Down but not out, quantum computing stocks are a buy on excessive weakness. For one, as noted by McKinsey, quantum computing could help solve the most complex problems faster than ever before. Two, as noted by Time, quantum computing could help solve “complex problems that currently take the most powerful supercomputer several years could potentially be
The biotech industry has fallen on hard times over the last few years, no thanks to venture capital drying up, tighter regulatory conditions and the harsh reality of the post-pandemic healthcare environment. As a result, biotech breakthrough stocks fell out of favor with investors and were among the worst performers in the stock market. However,
Sometimes, consistently performing stocks aren’t the headliners that financial media flocks to. Often less volatile with fewer quarter-to-quarter variations, consistently performing stocks tend to typify the “boring but reliable” stock segment. In a market full of growth-at-all-costs and high-flying tech, it’s no wonder these consistently performing stocks go unnoticed by most. But that’s a mistake.
Identifying potential risks in your portfolio is crucial for long-term success. As of July 2024, several stocks exhibit significant warning signs suggesting they might be stocks to sell now.

Stock spinoffs typically don’t do well initially. Unloved by shareholders of the former parent company, often misunderstood by the market and sometimes laden with debt or other baggage the parent no longer wanted to carry, spinoff stocks can take time to find their footing. Yet such strategic investments represent an opportunity for savvy investors. If
If you’re looking for relative value in tech after the meteoric rise of the Nasdaq 100 and the Magnificent Seven in the first half, perhaps the social media scene is worth checking out this July.

When we talk about dividend stocks, the focus is generally on blue-chip ideas. These are large companies with strong fundamentals and a stable growth outlook. Further, these blue-chip dividend stocks provide annualized total returns in the range of 10% to 15%. However, there are high-growth dividend stocks that can deliver robust annualized returns.

Oracle (NASDAQ:ORCL) stock faces competition from Google Cloud, Adobe Experience Cloud, and Amazon Web Services in the cloud computing sector.

It might be time to look for consumer discretionary stocks to sell. They have exhibited varying performance over the past several months. For example, the Vanguard Consumer Discretionary ETF, a $5.4 billion exchange-traded fund with some 312 different consumer discretionary names, has only risen just under 3% on a year-to-date basis. This is relatively flat
In Friday’s Q3 2024 strategy outlook, BCA Research forecasted a hard landing for the economy.

Yet as U.S. marijuana legalization on the federal level remains largely in limbo, instead of figuring out which cannabis stocks to buy, you should be figuring out which cannabis stocks to sell. Yes, there are
Industrial stocks can present mouthwatering returns. However, their cyclical nature makes them susceptible to interim drawdowns. Unfortunately for industrial stocks, the U.S. consumer environment is on a knife’s edge. For example, the unemployment rate ticked up to 4% in May.

Following analyst upgrades, downgrades or initiating coverage reports can be exhausting.
