5 of the Smartest Stocks to Buy With $10,000
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has completely changed how we as a society operate. Ideas that seemed almost unthinkable as recently as six weeks ago, such as the shutdown of nonessential businesses across the country to lessen the transmission of COVID-19, are now a reality. And the physical and financial toll associated with the coronavirus is very real.
As of this past Saturday, April 11, close to 1.8 million cases of COVID-19 had been reported worldwide, with the death toll from this respiratory illness approaching 110,000. The U.S. accounted for more than 20,000 of those deaths and approximately 30% of all confirmed cases.
As you can imagine, being the epicenter of the outbreak has put plenty of stress on the financial system. Almost 17 million people have filed for unemployment benefits within the past three weeks, while the stock market was thrust into bear market territory in less than four weeks' time.
