Ben Rains digs into the stock market as the bulls and bears tussle for near-term control of the market as we close out August. Of course, the downbeat month and the recent stretch of volatility are not pleasant in the moment. But pullbacks are healthy and vital parts of the stock market and one was desperately needed after the huge rally.
The foundation that drove the market comeback is still in place. Investors with long-term horizons who can block out the near-term noise might want to consider buying proven large cap stocks and holding them for the long haul. The three stocks we explore today are Caterpillar (CAT), Walmart (WMT), and Visa (V).
