One particular industry is famous for surviving the brunt of the recession while also handing back solid returns. Itâs all thanks to the magic of inelastic demand. Thereâs a catch, though. [Energy and Capital Header] Practical Investment Analysis for the New Energy Economy Seek Shelter in This Recession-Proof Oasis Luke Sweeney | Oct 17, 2022 Battle-weary investors who need a place to recuperate from the past monthsâ harsh sell-off need look no further. One particular industry is famous for surviving the brunt of the recession while also handing back solid returns. Itâs all thanks to the magic of inelastic demand. Thereâs a catch, though. Isnât there always? While a huge portion of the market is licking its wounds and playing conservatively, major institutions are doubling down on a buffet of cheap stocks. They're narrowing their focus down to only the most reliable, practical plays. Long-term tech moonshots are almost extinct, and promising startups are being neglected. In todayâs market, investors are looking for reliable short-term payouts. Who can blame them? Given the state of the world economy, itâs unclear when the situation will stabilize. One of my personal favorite recession-proof industries is biotech. Medical care is some of the most inelastic demand there is, considering most patients don't have the luxury of cutting back on their meds. Iâd be remiss not to mention that a truly alarming amount of people do attempt to ration medicine during hard times. Itâs a horrific symptom of the total failure that is the U.S. healthcare system. But thatâs a discussion for another time. On the whole, the huge sums of money that flow through the healthcare system donât stop for anyone. Barring something like a meteor strike or alien invasion, Big Pharma is still getting paid. Here Lies Silicon Valley, RIP If you thought the tech crash was bad... you havenât seen anything yet. Due to a massive shortage of one rare resource thatâs critical to their existence... Silicon Valley and the $5.2 trillion tech industry are facing a death sentence. And only one tiny company can save them from disappearing. [Read more about the $1 company ready to revive Big Tech.]( Morbid? Yes. Profitable? Absolutely Thereâs plenty to be said about the ethics of the âpay or dieâ system America currently uses. Iâm sure there are plenty of Buzzfeed Op-Eds already written about it. But the same principle that ignites the anger of the left also makes biotech such a strong investment during a recession: necessity. While most people wonât cut down on medical care, they will cut down on everything else to pay for it. In these cases, insurance companies can dish out hundreds of thousands of dollars per patient. The brick and mortar of the medical system isn't going anywhere. But development of new drugs â typically one of the best ways for investors to score insane gains â has been dwindling lately. [biotech ipo slowdown] 2021 was a breakout year for the industry. CRISPR, anti-aging drugs, mRNA vaccines, and more debuted into the waiting hands of massive investors. Then development stalled due to COVID slowdowns, and investors became acquainted with the fickle nature of biotech itself. Many of these companies made a great case, but the technology itself never panned out. Burning through $100 million in seed money typically burns bridges with investors as well. After more than a few overly enthusiastic benefactors got burned, the industry contracted â but it didn't disappear. Todayâs biotech investor, the one who didnât panic sell last quarter, isn't concerned with the wonder drug of tomorrow. According to analyst reports, most investors are putting their money in established companies with the potential for regulatory approval this year, not at some undetermined future date. These highly paid fund managers are taking the same advice that we told our readers years ago. Sometimes, even the so-called best in the business are behind the curve. Turn the Global Chip Crisis to Your Benefit TODAY The microchip shortage is causing industries to lose hundreds of billions of dollars... And itâs impacting YOU financially. The prices of everyday tech products like laptops, phones, printers, and graphics cards are as much as $350 more expensive. Itâs absolutely ridiculous... But there is a silver lining. Because [Iâve uncovered a TINY, virtually unheard-of company...]( Which is at the very CENTER of Americaâs initiative to solve this crisis.

Biotech stock prices move according to a very different set of rules than tech or energy. In the case of breakthrough medicines, the FDA plays judge, jury, and executioner. Following all the important dates and decisions from each regulator is a monumental task. These organizations put out an enormous amount of highly technical data. Iâm partially convinced they make their releases as jargon-filled as possible to make them purposefully inaccessible. But the payoff for digging through this mountain of data is sweet. When a new drug finally passes inspection, it can send share prices into the stratosphere. Take the COVID vaccines, for example. Although the approval process was rushed, Moderna's stock went through the roof after the decision. [moderna gains after vaccine approval] One simple press release can bring life or death for even the most established pharmaceutical company. If you have about 30 hours of free time each week, you could spend your time combing through the deluge of trial results and clinical data. The importance of due diligence can never be overstated. But if youâd prefer valuable biotech insight without hunching over a computer for most of your life, youâll want to check out [âProject Greenlight.â]( Our team prepares a complete list of the most promising biotech plays based on upcoming FDA decisions. [Let us do the legwork for you â it just might help your portfolio survive the recession.]( To your wealth, Luke Sweeney
