Playing defense in the stock market used to seem simple. You bought staples, utilities, telecoms and pharma. But that playbook has stopped working. This week, we speak with top Wall Street strategist Adam Parker of Trivariate Research, who publishes exceptional stock market analysis for individual investors at Trivector Research: https://trivectorresearch.com/. He walks us through what has changed, and the new framework he uses to find stocks that actually protect capital when the market sells off. He shares 7 stocks on his defensive list, including a software giant and a payments network you wouldn't expect. As always, this is not financial advice.
