Risk and reward are the yin and yang of stock trading, the two opposite but essential ingredients in every market success. And there are no stocks that better embody both sides – the risk factors and the reward potentials – than penny stocks. These equities, priced below $5 per share, typically offer high upside potentials. Even a small gain in share price – just a few cents – quickly translates into a high yield return. Of course, the risk is real, too; not every penny stock is going to show th

It’s difficult for most stocks to make any headway in 2022. Inflation, rising interest rates and Russia’s ongoing war on Ukraine have dragged down even those with minimal exposure to the macro headwinds. For Novavax (NVAX), these worries have been amplified by other considerations. First, there is the prospect of dwindling global demand for Covid-19 vaccines, what with the virus on the backfoot in many parts of the world and there being an oversupply in selected regions. Secondly, in the U.S. at

The stock market ended its multiweek losing streak, and like a sports team that finally got a win, it’s worth celebrating. It just doesn’t mean the team—or this stock market—is any good. “Stocks finally enjoyed a strong bounce this week,” writes Canaccord Genuity analyst Martin Roberge.

Investors finally got the week they had hoped to see, producing a sizable rebound from last week's stock market lows. There's still plenty of uncertainty in the economy, but investors are starting to think that the Federal Reserve might not be as aggressive as feared in fighting inflation. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI), S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC), and Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX: ^IXIC) were all up substantially on the week, including big gains on Friday.

Financial technology company Upstart Holdings (NASDAQ: UPST) has proven to be one of the most volatile stocks on Wall Street since going public at the end of 2020.
