How to invest in 2024: Goldman's take on stocks and bonds

The Fed's higher-for-longer interest-rate policy will continue next year. Investors can capitalize on it, Goldman says.

by Dan Weil

With investment-grade corporate bonds yielding 4% to 6%, “you don’t have to stretch in [terms of] risk for returns”.

When it comes to geopolitical risk, “companies are very focused on volatility in geographies,” Shah said. That’s bullish for supply-chain diversity, benefiting India and Japan.

Another theme is companies diversifying from fossil fuels, with continued investment in alternative energy.

“The rise of AI increases the capability of bad actors, requiring more defense [on the part of legitimate companies]. There will be material opportunities in defense.”

“Consumers are looking for experiences over goods. They are going back to normal behavior.”

There is a strong case for overweighting U.S. stocks short term but not long term. As for sectors, she likes health care, pharmaceuticals, steel and autos.

Meanwhile, gold and other commodities also represent attractive portfolio diversifiers.

Follow These Steps to ‘Rebuy’ a Losing Investment

by Dr. David Eifrig

The key mistake to avoid is trying to “catch a falling knife.” As a stock falls, it does get cheaper, but timing bottoms in asset prices is the hardest way to invest. You’ll do better by waiting for an upward trend to form and riding that momentum.

No. 1: Wait Six Months

No. 2: Wait for Positive Momentum
Ways to measure positive momentum:
a. Positive 12-month price change
b. The stock is above its 200-day moving average (“DMA”)
c. The stock’s 50-DMA is above its 200-DMA

No. 3: Reexamine the Fundamentals
