The Airlines Are in Trouble

A good investing friend of mine told me to “never own the airlines, only trade them.” Well, it looks as though the airlines are preparing to give the bears one heck of a good trade. Last year felt like it was the “Year of Weather” delays and cancellations. Every weekend we read about how the […]

The Best Stocks to Buy Before the Next Round of Stimulus

Stocks were at their lows for the year back in March when COVID-19 was spreading rapidly throughout the world for the first time.

It was a time of fear and panic in the financial markets as stocks fell about 35% from their all-time highs in February with little information to go on for the novel virus.

But then, the United States federal government went into their economic playbook and passed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act.

This provided over $2 trillion in economic support to American workers, families, and small businesses.

So today, we're going to reveal some of the best stimulus stocks to buy now (and avoid) before a second major round of stimulus hits the markets...
