Will you invest with fear, or with guts and glory? That’s the billion-dollar question facing each and every Alibaba (NYSE:BABA) shareholder now as BABA stock continues to drift downward with no mercy.

I’ve been a fan of financial technology stocks for a long while. Up until recently the choices were a few, and pretty much limited to Visa (NYSE:V), MasterCard (NYSE:MA) or American Express (NYSE:AXP). During the last few years, two worthy competitors entered the arena: PayPal (NASDAQ:PYPL) and Square (NYSE:SQ). Even more recently, more companies like

I’m all about finding the next big thing in the electric vehicle (EV) space to unseat Tesla (TSLA). Forget what’s big today. Capitalism is defined by creative destruction. Nothing lasts forever in an economy where we are all incentivized to always go bigger, do better, and be stronger. Just look at a list of the

If you are a contrarian investor, you may believe that Roku, Inc. (NASDAQ: ROKU) has underperformed the broader market in 2021  and is now an investment opportunity.

There’s no getting around it: it’s all about that $15 resistance level for folks who own Ocugen (NASDAQ:OCGN) shares. Frustratingly, OCGN stock bumped its head against that price point in February, and then again in May.

General Electric (NYSE:GE) stock is up about 90% in the past year, but it has been treading water around a split-adjusted $100 per share since the spring.

The last story I wrote on Oracle (NYSE:ORCL) covered the company’s difficult, but largely successful transition to cloud computing from the traditional on-premise software business. The results have been mixed for ORCL stock so far. I last said, “So in order to adopt to the new technology standard, ORCL simply added cloud to the end

There are few things more powerful than your own beliefs. This is playing out in a big way with the meme stock trade, particularly with the original, GameStop (NYSE:GME).

SmileDirectClub (NASDAQ:SDC) stock represents a company that promises to bring down the cost associated with teeth straightening.

Let’s be honest: some traders haven’t been too impressed with Micron Technology (NASDAQ:MU) in 2021. They were probably expecting MU stock to continue climbing like it did during the first quarter of the year, but it simply didn’t work out that way.

Among the “meme stocks,” there have been many potential short-squeeze plays that never quite panned out. Support.com (NASDAQ:SPRT) stock, however,  did actually get squeezed much higher. In August, the company’s shares  surged from $8 to as much as $59.69 per share. Since then, however, SPRT stock has slid lower. But it is still well above

Blackberry (NYSE:BB), the automotive embedded software company, produced positive free cash flow (FCF) of $74 million last fiscal year ending May 31. But its fiscal Q1 showed a loss of $35 million in FCF. This didn’t do anything to help BB stock. If fell from a near-term peak of $15.88 on June 3 (before the June

Earlier this year, investors piled into economic reopening and travel stock names. This made sense. The media was playing up the “Roaring 20s” narrative as it was hoped that rapid vaccination rates and a surging economy would lead to a summer of vacations, partying, and pent-up enthusiasm. Ashford Hospitality Trust (NYSE:AHT) stock was one such

GameStop (NYSE:GME) remains very popular with the Reddit crowd. GME stock is currently the fourth-most commented stock on the WallStreetBets subreddit.

If you told me that Gamestop (NYSE:GME) would be flattish after its earnings, I would not have believed you. GME stock rose just 0.2% on Thursday after reporting its second quarter on Sept. 8. After the last two reports, things got a bit too exciting, so I expected fireworks this time. Instead, investors shrugged their

Compared to other social media stocks, Pinterest (NYSE:PINS) stock is a bit of an oddball. I personally don’t have much use for the platform, but I can see the appeal … somewhat. After all, we could all use a daily dose of inspiration for shopping, relaxing, business and marketing purposes. Still, I’m not the only one
