3 Stocks to Avoid This Week

This week I see PepsiCo (NASDAQ: PEP), Blue Apron (NYSE: APRN), and Robinhood Markets (NASDAQ: HOOD) as vulnerable investments in the near term. You're not going to find me often singling out blue chip consumer brands here, but among the small handful of companies reporting quarterly results this week, PepsiCo is one that has me concerned the most. PepsiCo doesn't trip any of the red flags that typically steer me to be concerned heading into an earnings report.
