5 Safest Stocks to Buy Now

I chose this week’s topic about safer stocks for an obvious reason. 

That being the nasty correction that has unfolded since the start of the war with Iran. 

It could also be said this market downturn was well over due given nearly 12 months of non-stop bullish gains.   

This creates a wake up call to investors that the stock market is not always so easy. Meaning stocks just don't go up and up and up like appeared to be the case for the past year.  

For those who want to add a bit more stability in their portfolio, and enjoy a better night's sleep…then now is the perfect time to appreciate our Safety rating. Plus the top 5 safest stocks to buy now (shared further below).  

Taking a step back, our Zen Ratings model not only has an overall score of A-F, which is the most important singular concept in selecting the best stocks…we also have 7 component scores for each stock to help you dial into the best picks that meet your unique needs:

• Growth
• Value
• Momentum
• Sentiment
• Financials
• AI
• Safety

The “Safety” component measures a company's consistency in performance and gauges the predictability of earnings, cash flows, and operational metrics. This typically translates to a more stable share price with lower volatility. 

Let me be clear…if you are a more aggressive investor, then feel free to use the Zen Ratings while completely ignoring the Safety scores. 

But to those of you who would like a bit less risk to still enjoy ample stock market reward…then this Safety feature is the perfect solution.

I am a bit more of a long term growth investor. So Safety is not my primary concern. However, I abhor volatile stocks. 

If it's a case of tortoise vs. hare stocks…I will take the tortoise every time because over the long haul “slow and steady” almost always wins the investment race. 

All in all there are 20 hand selected stocks in my portfolio right now. They were picked by blending the benefits of the Zen Ratings with my greater than 40 years of investing experience. 

And that experience tells me exactly how to deal with the current Iran situation and spiking oil prices. This explains why my Zen Investor portfolio is up nearly double digits this year while the rest of the market is painted red.
