Q&A:
Today's Market
Why aren’t you recommending more pharmaceutical companies, healthcare companies or durables? It seems to be a general consensus that these stocks survive best during a recession. Thank you.
Many of the stocks in these sectors are currently rated as C’s in PortfolioGrader Pro. Too many pharmaceutical and healthcare stocks are scared of what will happen to them if a democrat is elected president, even though they may get more funding. Apparently, these industries are afraid of potential price controls.
