Executive compensation aside, Tesla stock continues to perform extremely poorly, down 32% in the last 12 months. Analyst Charlie Billelo recently pointed out that Tesla stock has been in a drawdown
In an extremely crowded and challenging electric vehicle market, investors need to be highly selective. Faraday Future Intelligent Electric (NASDAQ:FFIE), which is often shortened to Faraday Future, might seem like an intriguing EV startup.

Roaring Kitty brought meme stocks back to life. His first post in three years in mid-May caused GameStop (NYSE:GME) shares to triple in value almost overnight.

Automation stocks can be a tricky subject fundamentally speaking. With advances in artificial intelligence combined with enhanced connectivity – as in the Internet of Things or IoT – machines can end up taking over human jobs. It’s not an insignificant dilemma.
