Bottom line

Despite what the fundamentals of the above stocks show, investing during a bearish phase calls for a lot of analysis of the sector’s growth prospects. When the economy is slow, there is inflation, and a likely recession coming ahead, so investors should choose their stocks based on a thorough analysis backed by long-term strategies.
