Daily Poll: What to buy under the risk of tapering?
As the Fed starts to talk of its tapering timeline, traders are also looking for stocks that can survive, and even thrive from the impact.
According toGina Sanchez, CEO of Chantico Global and chief market strategist at Lido Advisors. “We think probably the mosttaper-resistant pick right now is something happening in the infrastructure play.“The thing about tapering is as soon as you hear taper, you start worrying about stocks that areoverpriced. And since the infrastructure sector has long been overlooked. It supposes to be one of the good choices. Some evidence has been shown on North Carolina-based steel producer$Nucor (NUE.US)$.
“It was already hot becausesteel prices were going up, and then theinfrastructure bill came along, and that was a big win. This is the largest diversified player in the U.S. and it’s cheap,” said Sanchez. “
Craig Johnson, chief market technician at Piper Sandler, said it serves investors to take a look back to the last time tapering was mentioned – in May 2013. Johnson saidthe best-performing sectors in the second half of 2013 were materials, industrials and technology. Johnson is betting on outperformance in that second sector, the industrials, especially themining stocks$Cleveland-Cliffs (CLF.US)$.
