There are so many wicked crosscurrents in the stock market now, from war and pestilence to raging inflation, it pays to check in with the best and the brightest for guidance.
On the war, Retzler expects a formal compromise before the summer. The market will price that in ahead of time. He puts inflation at 4%-5% by the end of the year, and 3% next year. 2. Own companies that benefit from endemic Covid Though a lot of people still don’t believe it, Covid seems to be on the way out. Omicron subvariants create much milder symptoms in people who have immunity because of vaccines or prior infections. This will benefit several types of stocks in the health-care space, says Neal Kaufman at the Baron Healthcare Fund BHCFX, -0.15%. His fund beats its Morningstar U.S. Healthcare index by 10 percentage points annualized over the past three years.
Now, with Covid lifting, these issues will recede and help the biotech space, Kaufman says. He cites argenx ARGX, -0.17% as a company from his holdings that will benefit as Covid backs off as a threat, because it has early-stage drug launches and clinical trials slowed down by the virus.“There is a tremendous amount of innovation and ultimately there will be many success stories,” he says.
2. Retzler also singles out II-VI IIVI, -1.72%, which makes optical components and chips used in communications equipment, aerospace and defense and electric vehicles, which are strong end markets.
