Stocks to sell

QuantumScape (NYSE:QS) is back on the upswing. After a difficult year for QS stock, shares have doubled in recent weeks. The stock is still down sharply from its old highs, but at least shareholders have some reason for optimism. Source: Michael Vi/Shutterstock.com There are two things powering up QuantumScape here.

IonQ (NYSE:IONQ) has been on a run. IONQ stock doubled in November. Heading into the company’s third-quarter results, it appeared that the stock’s momentum might dampen a bit following the earnings release.

Ford Motor (NYSE:F) stock is up more than 100% year-to-date, but people still don’t seem to believe in it as an electric car company.

I continue to believe that Remark (NASDAQ:MARK) stock has vast amounts of potential. But with the company seemingly having difficulty converting that huge potential into revenue and profits, investors should move to the sidelines for now.

Shares of Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) sold off today, falling more than 10% as investors took profits. Yet, LCID stock still has a ludicrous market cap of more than $76 billion.

“The Great Resignation” has suddenly come to the forefront. Economists and political commentators are using it broadly to make a variety of points about business, labor conditions and society at large. This can be confusing, however, as many people are trying to use the newly-emerging concept to push their own preferred narrative. So let’s start

Rivian (NASDAQ:RIVN) is yet another example of the current retail investing revolution. With hot trends like electric vehicle (EV) stocks still top of mind, there has been a continuous struggle between small-time investors and institutional players. What’s more, Rivian has already delivered a ton of excitement to believers, sporting gains of 120% from its initial

At just above $11.20 per share, BlackBerry (NYSE:BB) has held onto a decent chunk of its 2021 meme stock gains. The question now is whether that will stay the case for BB stock once the meme stock phenomenon finally comes to an end.

In recent days, Ocugen (NASDAQ:OCGN) has been a source of windfall profits for both fast-money retail traders and the stock’s deeply entrenched bear camp. But for less fleet-footed investors, it’s likely time to move on from OCGN stock. Let me explain.

Skillz (NYSE:SKLZ) stock didn’t take much of a licking after it released unimpressive third-quarter results on Nov. 3.

GameStop (NYSE:GME) stock is pulling back after its recent surge. But by-and-large, not much has changed for it.

BlackBerry’s (NYSE:BB) lackluster operating performance indicates that it is unlikely to create long-term value. Though one of its core products, QNX, continues to gain traction, it’s hardly enough to generate meaningful returns for the company. Moreover, with its management’s spotty track record, it seems improbable that they would wisely allocate the proceeds from the sale

Ocugen (NASDAQ:OCGN) has been one of 2021’s most volatile biotech companies. OCGN stock spiked from $2 to above $10 back in February after Ocugen announced that it was partnering with India’s Bharat Biotech on the latter’s Covid-19 vaccine.   Since then, Ocugen has been a roller coaster, dipping to $7 or $8 repeatedly before spiking up

Shares of struggling biotech, Progenity (NASDAQ:PROG), have been on quite the run of late. PROG stock has been a meme favorite and shot up more than 140% in value over the past couple of months.

“Sell the news” seemed to be the market’s response to AMC Entertainment’s (NYSE:AMC) latest earnings report. After the close on Nov. 8, the movie theater chain reported higher-than-expected revenue ($763 million versus $708 million consensus) and a narrower-than-expected per-share loss (44 cents versus 53 cents consensus), for the quarter ending Sept. 30.

Not too long ago, Boeing (NYSE:BA) stock was trading at more than $400. But since early 2019, BA stock has shed more than 50% of its value.
