Click here for access. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- With Vice President Kamala Harris leading in polls of some key battleground states, billionaires and institutional heavyweights are preparing for a possible Democratic sweep in November. Legendary investor Warren Buffett has dumped millions of shares of stocks over the last few months, and is now sitting on a record $276 billion in cash—and fellow billionaire Elon Musk says the timing is no coincidence. "Buffett is already preparing for this outcome," Must tweeted on Thursday—and billionaire John Paulson, who made a fortune betting against the housing bubble in the mid-2000s, is saying he will also pull his money from markets if Harris wins. Even so, a handful of stocks stand to benefit from a Democratic win in November, as a President Harris would pour hundreds of billions of dollars into clean energy and healthcare, for example. Here are three top stocks to buy should Harris win on November 5. Harris Hedge #1: UnitedHealth Corp. (UNH) President Trump has promised to end Obamacare—the health reform law that made it mandatory for Americans over age 26 to purchase health insurance or paya fine, with few exceptions. The law was a godsend for health insurer giant UnitedHealth Corp. (UNH), which surged 4,200% in the dozen years following the law's implementation. A Harris victory would reassure markets that the federal government's flow of health care subsidies—which amounted to hundreds of billions of dollars over the years—will continue uninterrupted. Of course, it's unlikely that UNH can repeat its feat of surging thousands of percent, as it's already a $500 billion health insurance giant. But UNH is already on many analysts' radar as a likely candidate to become the first trillion-dollar health insurer, and analysts are forecasting 21.8% growth for UNH this quarter alone. Harris Hedge No. 2: NextEra Energy (NEE) In 2022, Vice President Harris cast the tie-breaking vote on the Inflation Reduction Act, a law pouring $369 billion into clean energy companies. The law included hundreds of billions of dollars in tax credits for clean energy companies—and The New York Times has singled out NextEra Energy (NEE) as perhaps the best-positioned to profit from this tidal wave of cash. NEE recently raised its dividend by 10%, and now pays a yield of 2.5% that is almost double the S&P 500 average dividend yield. It has raised payouts once a year since 1994, providing investors with a growing income stream. Harris Hedge No. 3: Realty Income Corp. (O) In 2017, President Trump slashed the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%, and markets surged. But Kamala Harris has vowed to repeal the Trump tax cuts, which would drag down most stocks as companies faced a higher tax rate. That's not the case with Realty Income Corp. (O). This real estate investment trust (REIT) company enjoys a tax structure that exempts it from paying federal tax on net taxable income that it sends to shareholders. Because REITs must pay 90% of their net income back to shareholders, this means at least 90% of their net income would be effectively shielded from the higher tax rate—making them more resilient if the repealing of the Trump tax cuts causes a selloff in markets. Realty Income pays a 5.5% yield as of this writing—more than 3x as high as the average S&P 500 company's dividend yield. It has also grown its monthly payouts for over a decade.

However, mitigating losses can be of equal, if not greater, importance, as investors find losses much more distressing than missing out on potential gains. Loss aversion, the powerful behavioral phenomenon that explains why, for some investors, the pain of losing is psychologically twice as powerful as the pleasure of gaining, has also been a source of innovation and the basis for the creation of risk management investment strategies, such as Cboe's Buffer Protection Indices Cboe Global Markets, Inc. CBOE offers the Cboe Buffer Protect Indices, which are part of a family of Target Outcome Indices that provide a range of potential investment outcomes. Historically, these outcomes were available only through structured notes and certain insurance products Cboe's Buffer Protection Indices are most effective in a bear, range-bound or modest bull market environment. They seek to provide a buffer of protection against downside losses over a set period while still providing the opportunity for growth to a maximum predetermined level. These strategies seek to provide returns similar to those of the S&P 500 Index, with lower volatility and downside risks, in most market environments except when the stock market is rallying rapidly This enhanced downside protection did not come at the expense of risk-adjusted returns, as the Cboe Buffer Protect Indices maintained similar or slightly higher Sharpe ratios relative to the stock indices. According to the whitepaper, the risk mitigation benefits of these indices were particularly evident during periods of significant market stress. For instance, in the elevated market volatility years of 2008 and 2022, the Cboe Indices significantly outperformed the stock indices, incurring substantially lower losses Read More -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WALL STREET EYES MODESTLY POSITIVE START AS ATYPICAL SEPTEMBER RALLY GENERATES POSITIVE SENTIMENT, CHINA CUTS RATE: INTEL, PALANTIR, BITCOIN MAKE HUGE MOVES by Shanthi Rexaline, Benzinga Editor September 23, 2024 7:03 AM | 6 min read | Make a Comment ZINGER KEY POINTS * This might be a September rally to remember, as history is not on the side of September delivering many market rallies: Navellier * The S&P 500 Index is now above year-end price predictions of 70% of Wall Street analysts. U.S. index futures are modestly higher at the start of a new week as the rate cut euphoria fades and traders look ahead to the next key catalysts. The tech space could get a lift from a potential lifeline for struggling Intel Corp. INTC and traders may also look ahead to Micron Corp.’s MU earnings report due later this week. FedEx Corp.’s FDX annual shareholder meeting and conference presentations by companies could also be on traders’ radar. A few Fed speeches and private sector activity data due on Monday will also be of interest to the market, which has had an atypically strong September. China followed up with more cuts on Monday as the country strives to bring the struggling economy back on track In premarket trading on Monday, the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust SPY rose 0.15% to $569.09 and the Invesco QQQ ETF QQQ climbed 0.27% to $483.06, according to Benzinga Pro dat Cues From Last Week Traders reacted with a lag to the rate cut, sending averages sharply higher on Thursday. The S&P 500 Index and the Dow Jones Industrial Average scaled record highs in the session. Caution returned on Friday as the market closed the triple-witching session on a mixed note. The Dow built on its gains on Friday and ended at a new high Read More -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MARK CUBAN EMBRACES ELON MUSK'S HUMOR: 'I HAVE NO PROBLEM THROWING ELON UNDER THE BUS, BUT I'LL SAVE IT FOR WHEN IT'S TRULY DESERVED' by Bibhu Pattnaik, Benzinga Staff Writer September 21, 2024 2:15 PM | 2 min read | 1 Comment ZINGER KEY POINTS * Mark Cuban defends Elon Musk's social media antics, calling them "kind of insane" yet typical for the tech mogul. * Elon Musk's jest about Taylor Swift endorsing Kamala Harris spins into a Secret Service investigation.
