Idealist In all the reading I have done , I can summarize by saying . We are probably better off staying away from the stocks with no earnings or with price earnings ratios that far exceed their projected growth for this year. Those ultra sensitive to even minor adjustments in what investors believe the companies will earn in future years. Now we are seeing the downside of extreme volatility and it isn't pretty. We need to pick stocks that actually benefit from falling interest rate like banks , insurers , utilities and real estate investment trusts and beaten-down cyclical stocks like home builders and retailers, which will rebound with the recovery . Some stocks in these groups have risen sharply in the past year , especially utilities so we need to keep an eye on valuations . I want to buy in this sector when we finally get cap on the dow .
