The Most Popular StockBattle Choices
Devoted players have a long list of preferable stocks and crypto to form their portfolios with. Still, there are major tickers that were used the most this month. So let’s see the list of companies and cryptocurrencies that are at the center of attention that people are adding to their portfolios this February to compete for cash prizes. Be ready to use these hints till the month is over.
Hot Stocks to Watch
It’s been barely a month since the beginning of the year, but the market is already full of drama and excitement. If you are ready to dig deeper into the market whirlwind, you may consider three stocks that are the hottest now, according to MotleyFool analytics. Keep an eye on ExOne ($XONE), Lizhi ($LIZI), and Tilray ($TLRY) stocks. Here’s why…
Lizhi is a Chinese podcast platform that you probably didn’t hear much about through most of 2020. Still, it doubled in value overnight in early December after announcing a series of partnerships with some of China’s more notable electric vehicle manufacturers. In January, the stock was on the rise again because of a new deal with leading toy designer and retailer Pop Mart to create a branded podcast channel for the company.
Of course, the stocks may raise doubts until Lizhi shows some real results of these partnerships, but China’s EV market is on the road to becoming a major force on its own, so it may be the right time to invest in the volatile stock like Lizhi.
$XONE is a completely different story. It’s been on the 3D printer makers market for over 15 years. Keeping it in mind you may find the near-500% surge in its stock over the first five weeks of the new year is remarkable.
There are newcomers to the market, such as Desktop Metal whose IPO in December created new investor enthusiasm for using metal and carbon-fiber materials in the 3D printing process, but ExOne is believed to be “already better capitalized.”
Last but not least is marijuana producer Tilray. As $LIZI, it also was sleeping its way through 2020 until this year started off with a bang — the company announced a pot stock megamerger with Aphria that would form the world’s largest cannabis company in the world in terms of revenue.
Marijuana stocks have been mostly a losing bet since they burst onto the market a few years ago, but momentum looks to be turning in their direction, and investors would do well to keep an eye on the best of them.

Both sales and earnings are critical for the success of these companies. Here we listed stocks with the highest growth investing ranks this month.
