3 Big Tech leaders to buy… and 3 to avoid

By the time you listen to this, I’ll have had my second hip replacement surgery.   The first time, it cost me almost nothing out of pocket. But this time, I’ll be paying $8,000! Prepare for a rant about rising healthcare costs and the insurance racket.   Following Fitch’s downgrade of U.S. debt last week, Moody’s just downgraded its ratings on 10 U.S. banks. It’s another concerning sign of what’s happening beneath the surface of the market.   I highlight several reasons for investors to be cautious… including a classic signal that a recession is on the horizon.   The good news is that we’re heading into a stock picker’s market—where it’ll be easier to outperform the market if you select the right stocks. I share the qualities you should look for when picking stocks right now… and a recent Curzio Research Advisory recommendation that meets these criteria.   I also break down which Big Tech leaders are solid investments right now… and which ones can’t justify their premium valuations.   As we head into an election year, investors must be prepared for anything. Politicians will do whatever it takes to get votes… triggering more inflation and stock market volatility. That’s why it’s so important to protect your portfolio from the potential downside—And that’s exactly what Moneyflow Trader is designed to do.   Finally, I share one market-beating strategy investors should focus on… even more than dividends.   In this episode Health insurance is a racket [3:24] What’s behind Moody’s bank downgrades?
