during the slow economy were are the best sectors to place future money ? insurance? yield? oil pipe line?

Answer 1

housing?

Answer 2

I think insurance, maybe CB. Pipelines, you might consider KMI. Also natural gas company CHK has been pretty steady - I own this one. I also own the silver ETF, to hedge against a weak dollar.

I have been investing money in the wind energy sector. Here is my Top10Trader portfolio:

Do not guess! And Never Guess the market.

Check out the sector performance on http://www2.barchart.com/sectors.asp?base=industry

Look at the charts of the sector indices and find the (up/down) trends and go with them. As they say, "the trend is your friend, until it comes to an end."

Answer 5

during a slow economy, putting your money in companies such as Wal-Mart or Pfizer is a good idea. These are what we call defensive stocks. They are companies that provide product/services to the everyday crowd. For more investment ideas, I recommend http://ibooyah.com
