Bank of America equity strategist Savita Subramanian advised investors to own high quality stocks, or stocks with a S&P quality rating of B+ or better .

Quality stocks are about to outperform this year, according to Bank of America. The market is now on a volatile streak after a strong rally in January with a series of hotter-than-expected inflation numbers, recessionary fears and the prospect of further rate hikes rattling investors. Prominent strategists, such as Morgan Stanley's Mike Wilson , believe that the market could fall to a bear market this month.

Nevertheless, analysts are confident in the stock, with 70% of those covering it giving it a buy rating and anticipating an average upside of 12.24%. Digital payment companies Mastercard and Visa also made the list. Visa shares have gained almost 5% since the start of the year, and analysts predict it will rally an estimated 20.2% in the next 12 months. 35 out of 40 analysts covering Visa rate it a buy.
