3 of the Smartest Stocks to Buy With $300 in May

The first four months of 2022 have been quite the trip for the investing community.

Last year, the benchmark S&P 500 endured no worse than a 5% correction. But in 2022, the S&P 500 and iconic Dow Jones Industrial Average have both fallen into correction territory with declines of at least 10%. Things are even more challenging for the growth-focused Nasdaq Composite, which has shed as much as 23% of its value since November.

Although the velocity of downside moves in the stock market can be scary, history provides plenty of evidence that buying high-quality companies during these downturns is a smart move. No matter how steep the correction or bear market, a bull market rally eventually puts all downtrends in the rearview mirror.
