2022 was supposed to be a great year for Blue Apron (NYSE:APRN) stock. In December 2021, the firm announced a deal with Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) to run on Alexa smart speakers.

Shares in hair care products company Olaplex (NASDAQ:OLPX) dropped more than 40% in pre-market trading today after the company cut sales projections.

In July, GameStop (NYSE:GME) launched its NFT marketplace to a relatively muted reception. NFT trades had already fallen three-quarters since January, and traders assumed the game retailer had missed yet another party. Shares would eventually drop another 25%.

Cannabis stocks have been crushed this year due to the lack of progress on the federal legalization of marijuana and macro challenges.

SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) is a relatively small neo-banking firm right now. However, the data shows that SoFi Technologies is growing by leaps and bounds.

Space companies aren’t everybody’s cup of tea, but some investors might want to take a look at AST SpaceMobile (NASDAQ:ASTS) stock.

Also, it’s encouraging to see that AST SpaceMobile’s financial situation

Li Auto (NASDAQ:LI) stock, like its peers, has struggled lately. The market has become increasingly pessimistic about the near-term prospects for China-based electric vehicle (or EV) manufacturers. This could have you thinking the sector has been oversold. After all, this big decline only came about on the initial signs of a slowdown in Chinese EV

Investors are nervously awaiting the start of the third-quarter earnings season, which kicks off this week with reports from some of the big banks. Obviously, some earnings reports will be more important to watch than others. There are companies that serve as bellwethers for their industries or the economy on the whole. And there are

The Electric Last Mile (OTCMKTS:ELMSQ) bankruptcy auction on Oct. 7 is the next big event for Mullen Automotive (NASDAQ:MULN). The question is whether this event will create more positives or more negatives for MULN stock.

Cassava Sciences (NASDAQ:SAVA) stock took off once again during September.

While partially pulling back immediately after, as Cassava’s management dispelled the rumors, news indirectly related to the

Interestingly, much of the news surrounding global movie-theater chain AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC) lately has nothing to do with films. Recently, AMC stock declined after the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) revealed it wouldn’t ban payment for order flow (PFOF). Then, shares fell sharply after AMC Entertainment filed to sell up to 425 million AMC

I’ll admit that, among the smaller electric vehicle pickss, Canoo (NASDAQ:GOEV) stock has a lot more going for it. This maker of specialty EVs (for functions such as deliveries) has built up an impressive backlog of orders. Not only that, there’s another promising sign with this EV play: insider buying. Yet while you may see

It seems odd to be analyzing the best shipping stocks on a day when the second read of second quarter GDP should convince nearly any lingering skeptic that the U.S. economy is in a recession. Furthermore, that recession is likely to last well into 2023 and come with a much harder landing than the Federal

Sometimes, it’s hard to know who or what to believe. Such is the case when it comes to the ongoing U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) probe into Cassava Sciences (NASDAQ:SAVA). As the biopharmaceutical company contends with data-manipulation allegations, traders have to figure out what to do with SAVA stock. There may be evidence that the

Big-box retail chain Bed Bath & Beyond (NASDAQ:BBBY) has been the target of eager meme-stock traders.

China’s retail sales and industrial output data for August were definitely encouraging. Retail sales grew 5.4% year-over-year (YOY) in August, while industrial production was up 4.2%. However, Chinese companies continue to be under pressure due to the disruption caused by the country’s “Zero Covid” policy, tensions between the U.S. and China, and a stricter regulatory
