Based in New York, Teladoc Health (NYSE:TDOC) specializes in the niche market known as telemedicine or telehealth. Investors might feel optimistic overall about the telemedicine market, but there are too many company-specific problems going on to recommend TDOC stock. When the Covid-19 lockdowns occurred in 2020, Teladoc Health suddenly became a darling on Wall Street. The

Rivian (NASDAQ:RIVN) stock represents an upstart EV manufacturer with a lot of upside but also having a rough 2022. The company is young, so it remains too early to judge much with any certainty.

Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock is down roughly 38% year-to-date. With interest rate hikes set to continue and the economy seemingly on edge that would seem to imply Tesla share prices ought to fall further, right?

I warned investors not to take the bait. Since then, MULN stock is

Costco (NASDAQ:COST) has been one of the best brick-and-mortar operators over the past two years. The retailer ran its stores impeccably during the pandemic. Amid a period of unprecedented supply chain disruption and labor force uncertainty, Costco has run a tight ship. This has allowed it to post an impressive string of double-digit top-line sales

Inflation, interest rates and recession risk have knocked stocks lower again. Alongside stocks, the crypto and non-fungible token (NFT) markets have cratered, too. Yet this latest market meltdown has only had a moderate impact on GameStop (NYSE:GME) stock. What gives? The long side has seemingly regained the upper hand. They bid up the stock post-earnings,

Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock is in a bit of a tailspin recently. Since topping $1,200 per share last fall, Tesla shares have fallen to the mid-$600 range per share today. Despite that recent decline, however, the stock has still rallied tremendously over a longer term horizon. As a result, Tesla’s management announced a forthcoming three-for-one stock

So far in June, like most stocks, Occidental Petroleum (NYSE:OXY) has moved lower, even as the price of crude oil remains at elevated levels. Granted, crude oil has pulled back since climbing above $120 per barrel earlier this month, but the double-digit drop in OXY stock appears to be an overreaction to this and to

When markets staged a late-month rally in May, SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) joined it. SoFi stock stalled at the 50-day moving average. This is a technical resistance where selling pressure ended the attempted breakout. Apple’s (NASDAQ:AAPL) aggressive promotion of Apple Pay last week spooked SoFi investors. The technology giant already offers convenient monthly payment options. Apple

Soaring inflation, high interest rates and geopolitical tensions continue to drag down the broader market, most particularly growth stocks. Last week’s U.S. inflation data further spooked investors as the Consumer Price Index rose 8.6% year-over-year in May, marking the highest increase since December 1981. Several financial technology (fintech) stocks, which benefited from pandemic tailwinds, are

Headquartered in San Francisco, installment-payment broker Affirm (NASDAQ:AFRM) is also considered a specialist in the “buy now, pay later” (BNPL) niche market. As this market becomes increasingly crowded – and a famous tech company enters into the space – AFRM stock should be monitored but not owned. There’s nothing wrong with rooting for a small

Costco Wholesale (NASDAQ:COST) is a classic example of a stock that many investors got interested in after COST stock saw a dip of around 20% in 2022. The company has consistent profitability, sales growth is strong and free cash flow generation is robust. But is COST stock a buy after reporting a strong third-quarter fiscal-year-2022

The Wall Street Journal analyzed the median pay at S&P 500 companies in 2021. It found that Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL) paid out $295,884 in total compensation to its employees.

American tech investors tossed Chinese tech stocks like Alibaba Group Holding (NYSE:BABA), JD.com (NASDAQ:JD), and Pinduoduo (NASDAQ:PDD) away months ago. I kept a few Alibaba shares, but their value is down by half. Today, American tech stocks are also in a bear market. Money-losing stocks doing important work like Cloudflare (NYSE:NET) are down by more

Suffice it to say that Utah-headquartered Black Rifle Coffee (NYSE:BRCC) isn’t a run-of-the-mill coffee-shop chain. The company is ambitious and unique, with its focus on constitutionally protected freedoms. If you’re on board with the company’s vision and can handle some risk, then BRCC stock may be worth considering. Mainly, the risk comes from Black Rifle Coffee’s

Politicians don’t have a great reputation, especially these days. But some of them have had a good run with investing in stocks.

Roku (NASDAQ:ROKU) stock remains far off of pandemic highs during which it soared to prices that approached the $500 mark. Today it trades under $95, setting up a buy-the-dip opportunity in the eyes of many.  I hesitate to see the logic in taking that bet for the most part. For long-term investors patient enough to
