With its drop-off in price since last month’s short-squeeze rally, Vinco Ventures (NASDAQ:BBIG) may look to many like a “flavor of the month” penny stock.

Now trading at lows, some small-cap stocks have seen setbacks and disappointed investors lately. But being in the bargain bin also means opportunity. Investors can now bet that a handful of these small caps are facing temporary challenges. And as their fortunes reverse? Their share prices will be due to recover, too. Of course, investors

Once upon a time, everyone was doing share repurchases. Then Covid-19 hit, and businesses of all sizes were looking to conserve cash. As a result, repurchases went out of vogue. But now they’re back, and many investors look to buybacks as an indicator of stocks to buy for long-term profits. In the second quarter of

I have said this in the past and will say it again, tech stocks are hot picks and will continue to remain at the top for the rest of 2021. Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD) has proved its worth time and again. It has enjoyed a strong couple of years and is enjoying the momentum. AMD

Overall, one of the main catalysts for President Joe Biden’s 2020 electoral victory was his stance on the novel coronavirus pandemic. Leading up to the election, former President Donald Trump’s administration made critical errors, primarily flirting with unsubstantiated Covid-19 allegations which undid the good of Operation Warp Speed.

The equity markets are suffering from 1,000 cuts from a number of headlines, although most of these don’t actually change the fundamentals of the companies profit-and-loss statements. Nevertheless, they are inflammatory in nature and raised the levels of worry among traders. For the time being, they are rattling investor confidence on Wall Street. Thus, this

It seemed natural for shares of Chinese electric vehicle maker Nio (NYSE:NIO) to correct after surging from $2.11 in March 2020 to a high just below $67 in January — a gain of more than 3,000% in less than 10 months.
