Show Notes

Brian Mulberry shares his team's defensive take on the market, citing interest rates as a major headwind for earnings growth. Despite the S&P 500's rally to 6200, Mulberry expects more volatility ahead. To navigate this environment, he favors high-quality, dividend-yielding stocks with strong balance sheets and diversified revenue streams, such as JPMorgan (JPM), BNY Mellon (BK), and Bank of America (BAC). Mulberry also likes consumer staples like Home Depot (HD) and Walmart (WMT), citing their ability to weather economic uncertainty and deliver steady, profitable growth.
