Hello - Have you been following the debates? Will your portfolio will survive this election? Elections have consequences, or so the saying goes. But does your portfolio have to suffer those consequences? It could, but not for the reasons you think. Many investors confuse market volatility in an election year with market performance. In truth, the market doesn’t move much differently in an election year. However, you can get clues to what the institutional investors believe will happen in the way they allocate their holdings. But while the stock market tends to be forward-thinking, timing the machinations of our federal government is a fool’s errand. So I invite you to take a smarter way to invest in this election year. Take a look at some stocks that are poised for growth no matter what happens in November. And I’m not talking about investing in stocks like Amazon. You already know that’s a winner and a pretty crowded trade. And I’m not talking blue-chip dividend stocks. Those have a place in your portfolio, but there are opportunities for growth with companies that are still growing themselves. The stocks in this presentation have some resemblance to stocks that you may have heard of as “coronavirus stocks.” But while some of those stocks will fade after the pandemic ends, there are some companies that exemplify the ripple effects that the pandemic will bring to our economy. I’m talking about the acceleration of e-commerce, digital payments. It’s about technology that lets us sign important forms without leaving our house (and a stock that is resonating with a generation that really doesn’t want to anyway). And it’s about the trend towards personal safety. The next few weeks will contain the normal white noise of campaign nonsense. But governing is different than campaigning. So don’t get caught up in the election hype. Get your portfolio secure with these timely stocks. View the “7 Stocks That Don’t Care Who Wins the Election”
