10 Stocks to Kickstart Your 2022 Portfolio

[Zacks | Our Research. Your Success.] Mark Your Calendar {NAME}, I'm excited to see what the New Year has in store for the stock market, but even more excited that we're only three days away from the anticipated release of Zacks Top 10 Stocks for 2022. Investors who get in early on our best long-term buys for the year will position their portfolios for outperformance no matter what the market has in store. Since inception in 2012, the Top 10 portfolios nearly tripled the S&P 500. While the market gained +329.4%, Zacks Top 10 Stocks skyrocketed +962.5%.¹ And the 2021 portfolio substantially outperformed the very bullish S&P 500. Each year, from the Zacks universe of more than 4,000 stocks, I handpick the 10 best to buy and hold for the entire year. They are strong, successful businesses, not just companies with potential. A few of the new selections include: • Michael Burry, who famously made a fortune during the Great Recession by shorting real estate, turned his investing focus to…water. It's an industry with inexhaustible demand and one stock is now standing out. • The stock price of this financial giant has more than doubled since the start of the pandemic, and it’s predicted to begin another growth surge when its earnings report is released in late January. • A tech company that deals with pollution, climate, and environmental challenges has understandably been scalding hot. A recent pullback has made it an even more enticing buy. Overall the portfolio is diversified with 7 more stocks from a variety of industries. And remember, their potential value is greatest at the time of their release. You can be among the first wave of investors to see this coveted list of 10 handpicked stocks the morning of Monday, January 3.
