The Smart Investors

The current market has been divided with some investors pouring money into technology and others reducing risk by investing in utilities and energy. Growth stocks are also gaining momentum at the moment. It's a little overwhelming for me. What stocks should I invest in today?

It depends on your risk appetite. From the look of things, it seems the tech and healthcare sectors are good for investment for long term purposes. But if a certain degree of stability is required, utility stocks and consumer staples are the way to go.

It's really not safe to invest in just one stock today because the stock market is volatile. I would advise you diversify to spread your risks-never put all your eggs in one basket. You can invest in several sectors or just invest in ETFs so that you can have a diversified portfolio and a broad exposure to the market.

Your investment style is very important in picking a stock to buy. Do you prefer you high-risk, high-reward or steady, long-term growth? If you can answer these questions then you will know what stocks to buy. If you seek high-risk, high-reward stock, you could go for tech stocks. If you want steady stock, buy utilities for regular dividends and moderate price appreciation. You can also buy growth stocks if you are a patient investor.
