The Best Stocks to Buy Under a Biden Presidency
Joe Biden has officially been sworn in as the 46th president of the United States. Under this new administration there are quite a few stocks worth investing in due to the new emphasis on renewable energy and modern infrastructure. These priorities are likely to be warmly embraced by a Democrat-controlled Congress without provoking a filibuster from Republican senators. Infrastructure spending, green energy and healthcare are all Democratic priorities and should do well under a Biden presidency.
The energy industry is changing rapidly — dominant fuels like coal and oil are being supplanted by cheaper renewable energy sources. As the transition away from fossil fuels continues we can expect to see a rise in technological innovations like electric vehicles and other energy technologies.
