Where to Invest $5,000 Right Now
With half the country stuck at home quarantining, working from home, and trading stocks for free on Robinhood, 2020 was a great year to invest in profitless green energy, electric car, and similar "tech stocks." No matter how bad the company, these stocks just went nowhere but up.
As 2021 gets under way, though, and the economy gets back to "normal," it's time to settle down a bit, and get back to basics with your investing.
In short, it's time to start thinking about buying some value stocks. If 2020's tech rally has given you $5,000 or so to invest, and you're looking for a safer place to stash it, Vista Outdoor (NYSE: VSTO), PulteGroup (NYSE: PHM), and MarineMax (NYSE: HZO) are three stocks that offer a great balance of value, growth, and strong balance sheets to keep your money secure in the New Year.
