Greg Newman's Top Picks: July 28, 2022

Greg Newman, senior wealth advisor and portfolio manager, Newman Group, ScotiaWealth

FOCUS: North American dividend stocks and protection strategies 


MARKET OUTLOOK:

The bulls argue that a U.S. Federal Reserve pivot is starting to appear in sight and that asset prices have already adjusted adequately.

The bears argue that earnings are about to erode further and that another leg down is imminent.

Regardless, we already see value in some areas of fixed income, preferred shares, high yield bonds and equities.

A 60/40 portfolio sets up nicely here for a three to five year horizon.
