The Safest Bets for Long-Term Gains in the Fluctuating Stock Market
In the ever-changing landscape of the stock market, healthcare and technology stocks are often considered the safest bets for long-term gains. While Berry Corporation (Bry) (BRY:NSQ) experienced a -14.24 percent change on Wall Street leading up to Aug. 14, healthcare-related stocks, such as hospital conglomerates and insurance companies, have proven their stability even during economic crises. According to Besty Kuekcer from Benzinga.com, these stocks continue to make a profit, making them a reliable investment option. On the other hand, technology stocks can be riskier due to the boom-bust nature of new tech companies. However, Kuecker suggests that a diversified portfolio of tech companies can lead to significant gains when companies succeed or sell to larger entities.
