Got $5,000? It's Not Too Late to Buy These 3 Market-Beating Stocks
A $5,000 investment can go a long way when you put it into quality stocks that are performing well, pay dividends, and aren't expensive. Those three elements can set you up for some strong gains as even a 10% return on that size of an investment would mean a profit of $500.
Three stocks that have been doing even better than that this year are Cigna (NYSE: CI), ExxonMobil (NYSE: XOM), and General Mills (NYSE: GIS). They're all up more than 15% in 2022 -- and despite their already-strong returns, here's why they can still make for solid buys today.
Health insurer Cigna generally makes for a stable investment. The company provides investors with a good, all-around way to invest in the healthcare industry. In addition to providing healthcare insurance, it offers pharmacy benefits services, and last year it acquired virtual care company MDLive, positioning it for some terrific opportunities in a fast-growing industry.
