Strong balance sheets can survive Trump; focus on businesses: 9 large- and mid-cap stocks with upside potential of up to 47%

Some things are easier said than done. In today’s market, not being anxious is one of them. Especially so for the many investors who entered the market after Covid. This is the first time they are witnessing such a volatile correction. Many are also realizing for the first time that macro and geopolitical factors have an impact on stock prices in the short term.

And that depends on two factors: One, how long the runway for growth is for a business. And two, how capable is the management in dealing with uncertain times.
