FUBO – Rising inflationary pressure, aggressive interest rate hikes, and increasing odds of a recession have led major stock market indices to witness massive sell-off lately. FuboTV (FUBO) and Sundial Growers (SNDL) have lost significantly and are currently trading below $5. However, considering their weak fundamentals, it could be wise to avoid these stocks. Read on to learn more….
