I noticed that many budget stores prosper in recessions because people want to save money and buy things for cheaper. Stores like Ross and TJ Max are at highs right now. I want to get into Ross, but think it might be too late. Does anyone have other recession stocks that they bet will prosper when the market doesn’t?

>I think it's never too late to invest in any stock, but I'd recommend looking for stocks that have an inherent value and are likely to do well regardless of economic conditions. Stocks like energy companies, technology giants such as Microsoft or Amazon, health care providers with stable cash flow models etc. can be a great way to diversify your portfolio during recessions since they tend not only remain unaffected by market fluctuations but may even benefit from them if other sectors struggle.

If things are as bad as some are predicting, maybe invest in gun stores and rope manufacturers. Repeat customers won't be a thing but people will pay a premium on those products. Cost won't bother them...

Too dark? Maybe? Naaaa

just go for things that people will still need (not want) when recession hits. food producers, telecoms/utilities, healthcare.

MCD, BUD, PM, CAG, AWC, PEP and DPZ are my recession plays the last couple weeks. I’ve been in GIS a little longer and like it

Some good ones for the recovery are CCI, O, META, and of course TQQQ.

I will fight anyone who says to buy shit companies like CVNA, PLTR, and PTON.
