The stock market volatility of 2022 has carried into 2023. The year got off to a positive start, with the Fed raising interest rates by 25 basis points (bps) in February. Earlier this month at Capitol Hill, Fed chair Powell took a relatively hawkish tone since inflation still remains above the target rate. However, this was before the collapse of SVB and Signature Bank. These bank failures have spelled trouble for the global financial system and now the markets are pricing in a quarter point hike, with a small group also considering the possibility of a Fed pause.
On March 15 Invesco's chief global market strategist, Kristina Hooper, appeared in an interview on CNBC to discuss the Fed and her view of the markets. Kristina Hooper noted that there is a lack of clarity about the course that the Fed will take at the March meeting. However, if the banking crisis continues and the Fed decides to pause, Hooper thinks that it will be a conditional pause and not a complete halt. Kristina Hooper did not name any sectors she likes in the current environment, because she follows a long-term strategy.
Hooper thinks that investors with a long-term time horizon, "can be well-diversified and take advantage of what can be market panics that create pricing inefficiencies". For investors with a short-term time horizon, Hooper recommends being defensively positioned. Kristina Hooper sees increasing near-term volatility and, while there is a lack of clarity with the Fed amid contagion fears, she thinks that the PPI report was a positive for the markets on the inflation front.
The next FOMC meeting is just around the corner. Right now, the majority of the market is expecting a 25 basis point rate hike, while there is a 26.9% chance of the Fed pausing. In highly uncertain and volatile times like these, retail investors can feel overwhelmed and find it difficult to park some cash in the stock market, especially those that are on a budget. Investing in $10 stocks can be a viable investment option for investors that do not want to break the bank, and at the same time diversify. We have compiled a list of the 15 best stocks to buy now, according to hedge funds, that are currently trading under $10. Some of the best stocks $10 stocks to buy now include Yamana Gold Inc.
