The “meme hangover” continues with AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC). Not only has AMC Entertainment stock coughed back all of its 2021 gains.

Back when interest rates were low and speculative fervor ran high, video-game retailer GameStop (NYSE:GME) was a darling among meme-stock traders. Those days are gone, however, and the hope of a full recovery for GameStop stock is fading fast. Frankly, it’s “game over” for GameStop’s investors in 2024. GameStop is a relic from the era of physical console

SoundHound AI stock (NASDAQ:SOUN) has a rapidly growing business, promising technology, an impressive list of customers, and an investment from Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA). Moreover, SOUN’s partnership with Nvidia could eventually generate a great deal of revenue for the smaller firm, tremendously lifting Soundhound AI stock in the process. On the other hand, however, SoundHound’s valuation remains

Palantir Technologies stock (NYSE:PLTR) started out serving the defense and intelligence sectors by providing comprehensive data analytics products.

Self-checkout theft is a thorn in the side of almost all major retailers, resulting in over $100 billion in losses. Unless something drastic occurs, the amount will increase to over $140 billion by 2025 from $112.1 billion in 2022. However, some names are getting the brunt of it more than others. The three companies are

Alibaba (NYSE:BABA) is amid a significant transition. The company is selling certain stock positions and had planned an initial public offering didn’t work out.

Artificial intelligence companies have become a huge investment trend in today’s stock market. Arguably, AI has already overshadowed some other recent cycles such as SPACs and blockchains. It seems possible that AI enthusiasm could even exceed the software and growth stock boom of 2021 by the time it reaches its peak. Investors and understandably rushing

The Dow Jones doesn’t offer as much diversification as other indices. While the S&P 500 contains 500 stocks and the Nasdaq 100 has 100 holdings, the Dow Jones only has 30 companies.

Electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:RIVN) entered the market full of hope and anticipation. Fundamentally, the company benefited from a gorgeous baseline chassis from which Rivian made an EV pickup truck and SUV. These served as a wonderful contrast to Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) and its increasingly dull and predictable aesthetics. However, that hasn’t been enough

Meme stocks became a cultural phenomenon when shares of Gamestop shot to the moon in early 2021. A group of Reddit (NYSE:RDDT) traders rallied around meme stocks, stunning Wall Street by showcasing the power of collective retail trading.

Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock has a roughly $560 billion valuation, down more than 50% from its peak with more downside possible.

It’s been a tough road for consumer discretionary stocks since the pandemic ended. Sky high inflation, rising interest rates and economic worries have led consumers to tighten their purse strings. At the same time, discretionary dollars have flowed more towards travel and experiences and away from spending on goods and products. The result is that

Plug Power (NASDAQ:PLUG) stock is leading the green hydrogen revolution. It has established itself as the only one-stop shop for obtaining fuel cells, electrolyzers and green hydrogen fuel.

Investors have made a ton of money in cloud computing stocks over the past 15 years. The transformation from on-premise to off-premise software, data storage, and security has been truly revolutionary for the technology industry. But at some point, a concept may get played out. And it seems like we’re reaching that point with cloud

Changing consumer behaviors can and often do cause upheaval for entire sectors of the economy. For example, newspapers and bookstores can’t keep their heads above water because of the internet. Similarly, the advent of music downloads has largely made music stores (yes, millennials, those actually existed in large numbers) extinct. Smartphones, of course, eventually caused
