Defensive stocks might be the best plays over the coming months. In many sports games, players need to adjust between an offensive strategy to score and a defensive one to guard.

Following the stock market bottom in Mar. 2020, growth stocks dominated the list of best-performing stocks for the first year of the new bull market.

Aside from the obvious potential for human suffering, I’ve realized why the Russia-Ukraine crisis is so upsetting to me — I hate relying on other people. Maybe it’s the only child in me speaking.
