In exchange for the risk of sustaining large losses, investors in risky equities receive the potential for massive gains.

Electric vehicle battery technology company QuantumScape (NYSE:QS) might seem like a promising startup in a potentially hyper-growth niche industry. However, financial traders should maintain low expectations for QS stock in 2023. It’s a harsh reality to face, but QuantumScape’s financials aren’t ideal.

Succeeding in the increasingly crowded electric-vehicle market isn’t a walk in the park for any company. As a result, I’m convinced some EV stocks will be winners and some will be losers.

As any stock trading for under $5 per share is classified as a “penny stock,” admittedly sometimes this term can be a misnomer. However, this term accurately describes Ideanomics (NASDAQ:IDEX), as IDEX stock trades for literal pennies per share. At first glance, this early-stage electric vehicle company may seem a low-downside/high-upside opportunity. Especially as shares
Metaverse stocks are nowhere near as popular as they were a few years ago. They’re seen as high-risk now. Rewind to late-2021 and it was just as easy to speculate that they were a surefire ticket to riches. At that time, investors were scrambling to understand what the metaverse was, and what it could be.
As electric cars gain more mainstream attention, numerous EV stocks have emerged as winners over the past decade. Of course, Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) has led the way, providing life-changing returns for those who bet on the success of Elon Musk’s vision. However, with the market maturing, there are plenty of other opportunities to consider. Competition is picking up,
Energy stocks have a lot going for them. The world needs a ton of electricity and transportation fuels every day. Energy is inflation-protected, as prices tend to rise during unsettled periods such as we’ve experienced recently. And energy stocks sell at low P/E ratios while often offering high dividend yields. But investors shouldn’t lose sight of
The world’s foremost artificial intelligence stock trading algorithm, An-E, predicts that Novavax (NASDAQ:NVAX) stock will gain 7% by June 15. An-E (pronounced Annie) has made this kind of prediction before. Back in December, Wall Street was bullish on Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ).

More than any time since the advent of fossil fuels, new, game-changing energy technologies are emerging and proliferating, making many energy stocks very attractive.

Over the past eighteen months, shares in Cash App and Square parent Block (NYSE:SQ) have fallen in price by around 75%. With this, many investors may believe that the worst is already priced-in with SQ stock. But while Block’s valuation is a lot more reasonable today than it was in late 2021, don’t assume that
When I think of activist investors, Carl Icahn and Bill Ackman always come to mind. While you could argue that Ackman doesn’t practice activism often, the duo’s battle over Herbalife (NYSE:HLF) started in 2012 and continued for several years. There was even a documentary made about the fight between the billionaires. Ironically, Icahn’s firm Icahn Enterprises (NASDAQ:IEP)

Should dip-buyers consider investing in electric vehicle (EV) battery technology company QuantumScape (NYSE:QS) now? I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the risk-to-reward profile isn’t ideal for QS stock in 2023. QuantumScape’s financials certainly aren’t favorable. In addition, it’s taking a very long time for QuantumScape to develop its multi-layered battery cell
