2023 has been a great year for stock buyers. But not every stock has gone up. In this video, Motley Fool contributor Jason Hall takes a closer look at four stocks he bought in 2023: two that have gone up -- a lot -- since he bought them, and two that, well, didn't go up.
In addition to a look at their short-term results, he breaks down why he owns them and his expectations going forward. Stocks discussed: CrowdStrike (CRWD 1.55%), Live Oak Bancshares (LOB 1.32%), Confluent (CFLT -0.16%), and Wolfspeed (WOLF -4.50%).
