Every week, Tracey will be joined by guests to discuss the hottest investing topics in stocks, bonds and ETFs and how it impacts your life. To listen to the podcast, click here: Welcome to Episode #437 of the Zacks Market Edge Podcast. (1:00) - Are We Heading Towards A Recession? (7:10) - What Can We Expect From The Fed The Next Few Months? (12:30) - How Should You Position Your Portfolio Right Now?

This week, Tracey is joined by John Blank, Zacks Chief Equity Strategist, to discuss what they always discuss every few months on the podcast: is the United States in a recession? And if not, is one coming? With all the market turmoil, they also discuss what investors should do right now. What stocks should investors buy? John is the editor of Zacks Large-Cap Trader portfolio so he had some suggestions about what he was looking at in the large caps. Tracey is the editor of Zacks Value Investor portfolio so she mentions some value stocks. 1. Tesla, Inc. TSLA Tesla is one of the Magnificent 7 stocks. They have all corrected in the sell-off, which means they are down at least 10%. But Tesla is down even more, falling 38.6% year-to-date. Tesla's earnings are expected to rise 23.5% in 2025 and another 25.9% in 2026. Tesla has gotten more attractive on a price-to-earnings (P/E) basis since the shares have sold off. It is now trading at 77x. That is not cheap, however. A P/E under 15 is considered a value. Should Tesla be on your short list after the sell-off? 2. NVIDIA Corp. NVDA NVIDIA is also one of the Magnificent 7 stocks. Over the last 5 years, shares of NVIDIA are up 2040%. But year-to-date, shares have fallen 13.8%. NVIDIA saw record revenue in fiscal 2025 of $130.5 billion, up 114% year-over-year. NVIDIA's earnings are expected to jump 46.8% in fiscal 2026 and another 24.3% in fiscal 2027. After the stock sell-off, it now has a forward P/E of just 24.8. This is historically low for NVIDIA. Should NVIDIA be on your short list at this valuation? 3. JPMorgan Chase & Co. JPM JPMorgan Chase is one of the largest banks in the United States. Over the last year, shares are up 20%. But year-to-date, JPMorgan Chase shares have fallen 4.9%. Earnings of JPMorgan Chase are expected to fall 8.1% in 2025. It now trades with a forward P/E of 12.6. JPMorgan Chase also pays a dividend, which yields 2.2%. Should a big bank like JPMorgan Chase be on your short list? 4. Exxon Mobil Corp. XOM Exxon Mobil is a large, integrated American energy company. Oil stocks have been weak over the last year as oil prices have tumbled. Exxon Mobil shares are up in the last year, but just 0.8%. In 2025, with all the market turmoil, Exxon Mobil is still up 1.5%. However, earnings are expected to fall 4.9% in 2025. Exxon Mobil has a forward P/E of 14.7. A P/E under 15 usually indicates a stock is a value. Exxon Mobil also pays a dividend, yielding 3.6%. Should energy stocks like Exxon Mobil be on your short list? 5. Novo Nordisk A/S NOV Novo Nordisk is a global healthcare company headquartered in Denmark. It specializes in diabetes and weight loss. Shares of Novo Nordisk soared on increased sales of the weight loss drugs, gaining 180% in the last 5 years. But year-to-date, shares have fallen 12.8%.
