Wall Street’s 10 Worst Performing Stocks

Page 1 of 9

Ten stocks lost their steam on Wednesday, bucking a broader market rally, as investors digested a flurry of negative developments, including earnings misses and a weaker outlook for the rest of the year.

Meanwhile, the Dow Jones led the rally among the major indices, jumping 1.14 percent, followed by the S&P 500 at 0.78 percent, and the tech-heavy Nasdaq at 0.61 percent.

In this article, we name the 10 worst performers on Wednesday and break down the reasons behind their declines.

To compile the list, we focused exclusively on stocks with at least $2 billion in market capitalization and over 5 million shares in trading volume.

10. STMicroelectronics N.V. (NYSE:STM)

STMicroelectronics dropped its share prices by 4.91 percent on Wednesday to close at $31.77 apiece as investors unloaded positions ahead of the release of its second quarter earnings performance.

STMicroelectronics N.V. (NYSE:STM) is scheduled to announce the results of its financial and operating highlights before market open on Thursday, July 24, where analysts expect the company to report $2.77 billion in revenues and earnings per share of $0.10.

Additionally, investors remained cautious amid President Donald Trump’s threat last week that he would likely impose a new round of tariffs on chips and pharmaceutical products as soon as August 1, the latest deadline for the introduction of his reciprocal levies on other countries.

In other news, STMicroelectronics N.V. (NYSE:STM) earned a higher price target of $50 and “outperform” rating from investment firm Baird amid improving gross margins, silicon carbide (SiC) revenue, and the clearer path to recovery of industries that it supplies its products.

9. SharpLink Gaming, Inc. (NASDAQ:SBET)

SharpLink declined by 5.8 percent on Wednesday to close at $25.81 apiece as investors turned cautious amid the drop in Ethereum prices during the day.

As of this writing, prices of Ethereum, which SharpLink Gaming, Inc. (NASDAQ:SBET) hoards in its treasury, were down by 3.17 percent at $3,629.59 apiece as market experts predict the cryptocurrency to pull back to the $3,400 support level.

SharpLink Gaming, Inc. (NASDAQ:SBET) traders took the comment negatively, especially after the company reported last Tuesday that it hiked its ETH ownership in ETH to 360,807 following the purchase of another 79,949 ETH. The cryptocurrencies were bought at an average price of $3,238 apiece.

ETH concentration rose to 3.06, up 53 percent since the company launched its digital treasury strategy.

The lump sum transaction made SharpLink Gaming, Inc. (NASDAQ:SBET) the largest ETH owner to date.

According to SharpLink Gaming, Inc. (NASDAQ:SBET) another $96.6 million of proceeds from a recent share sale have yet to be deployed to purchase more ETH.

The $250 Trillion AI Hype is Real. A few years from now, you’ll probably wish you’d bought this stock.

When Jeff Bezos said that one breakthrough technology would shape Amazon’s destiny, even Wall Street’s biggest analysts were caught off guard.

Fast forward a year and Amazon’s new CEO Andy Jassy described generative AI as a “once-in-a-lifetime” technology that is already being used across Amazon to reinvent customer experiences.

At the 8th Future Investment Initiative conference, Elon Musk predicted that by 2040 there would be at least 10 billion humanoid robots, with each priced between $20,000 and $25,000.

Do the math. According to Musk, this technology could be worth $250 trillion by 2040.

Put another way, that’s roughly equal to:

  • 175 Teslas
  • 107 Amazons
  • 140 Metas
  • 84 Googles
  • 65 Microsofts
  • And 55 Nvidias

And here’s the wild part — this $250 trillion wave isn’t tied to one company, but to an entire ecosystem of AI innovators set to reshape the global economy.

It’s a leap so massive, it could reshape how businesses, governments, and consumers operate worldwide.

Even if that $250 trillion figure sounds ambitious, major firms like PwC and McKinsey still see AI unlocking multi-trillion-dollar potential.

How could anything be worth that much?

The answer lies in a breakthrough so powerful it’s redefining how humanity works, learns, and creates.

And this breakthrough has already set off a frenzy among hedge funds and Wall Street’s top investors.

What most investors don’t realize is that one under-owned company holds the key to this $250 trillion revolution.

In fact, Verge argues this company’s supercheap AI technology should concern rivals.

Before I reveal the details, let’s talk about how some of the richest people on the planet are positioning themselves.

  • Bill Gates sees artificial intelligence as the “biggest technological advance in my lifetime,” more transformative than the internet or personal computer, capable of improving healthcare, education, and addressing climate change.
  • Larry Ellison — through Oracle, is spending billions on Nvidia chips and partnering with Cohere to embed generative AI across Oracle’s cloud and apps.
  • Warren Buffett — not known for tech hype — says this breakthrough could have a ‘hugely beneficial social impact.

When billionaires from Silicon Valley to Wall Street line up behind the same idea — you know it’s worth paying attention to.

Even as we admire what Tesla, Nvidia, Alphabet, and Microsoft have built, we believe an even greater opportunity lies elsewhere…

But the real story isn’t Nvidia — it’s a much smaller company quietly improving the critical technology that makes this entire revolution possible.

And judging by what I’m hearing from both Silicon Valley insiders and Wall Street veterans…

This prediction might not be bold at all:

A few years from now, you’ll wish you’d owned this stock.

My name is Inan Dogan. I’m the co-founder and Research Director of Insider Monkey. I have an important message for you today.

Since March 2017, my stock picks have returned 16.5% annually. Today, I’ve found an opportunity even bigger than my British American Tobacco call.

Two years ago, Wall Street wrote off British American Tobacco (BTI) as a “melting ice cube.” The stock had crashed 40% from its peak, and consensus said the business was dying.

We looked under the cover and realized they were wrong.

We alerted our subscribers, and BTI returned 90% in just 16 months.

Now if you had invested just $10,000 in BTI in June 2024, you’d be sitting on $19,000 in October 2025.

Today, we have identified a nearly identical pattern in a digital-first giant trading at $3.

While the market panics over a surface-level revenue decline, our PhD-led research shows management has actually surgically cut $100 million in waste to focus on high-margin growth.

This pattern is a hallmark of our 16.5% annual return track record. The current opportunity offers a 400% upside potential—dwarfing even our 90% BTI return.

Get the ticker for our new “Underdog” pick and the full BTI case study for just 99 cents.
