Top stock picks and bond market area as recession looms

Bob Doll, Crossmark’s Chief Investment Officer and former BlackRock stock chief, predicts that the US economy will experience a mild recession in the near-to-mid future. However, he believes there are still opportunities to be found in the market, particularly in value stocks. Doll recommends five stocks that he likes: Cigna (CI), McKesson (MCK), Valero (VLO), Phillips 66 (PSX), and Adobe (ADBE). While Doll is cautious about the broader stock market’s upside potential, he sees potential in these specific sectors and stocks.
