Are These 3 Popular Stocks Worth Your Time in 2023?

Soaring concerns over an impending Fed-induced recession have hampered investor sentiment. With the likelihood of a downturn in upcoming months, are popular stocks Peloton Interactive (PTON), Tilray Brands (TLRY), and ContextLogic (WISH) worth your attention? Read on to find out…

The stock market has been volatile for quite some time owing to the Fed’s hawkish comments to tame the stubbornly high inflation and other macroeconomic uncertainties. Amid this, let us probe into popular stocks, Peloton Interactive, Inc. (PTON), Tilray Brands, Inc. (TLRY), and ContextLogic Inc. (WISH), to see whether they are worth investors’ attention in 2023.

The fusion of robust hiring and resilient spending despite sky-high inflation could diminish the likelihood of a Fed pivot. Moreover, the Fed’s hawkish comments have raised concerns about an impending recession.

Economist David Rosenberg recently repudiated investors' hopes for a "no landing" scenario and believes that the idea that the United States can keep growing and avoid a recession or a slowdown is a "fairy tale."

The early-year stock rally is stalled on the backs of dashed investor optimism, and the stock market is anticipated to remain volatile for a while. According to an American Association of Individual Investors survey, the bullishness among investors, which was the highest in early February since 2021, has plunged to 21.6%, indicating investors are turning pessimistic.

Amid such volatilities, PTON, TLRY, and WISH could be best avoided now due to their weak fundamentals.
