Everyone loves a discount at their favorite retail store. But when a discount is offered on the best stocks or funds, people surprisingly look the other way. 2020 will be long remembered for the pandemic and its impact to the world. But it will also be remembered for some big bargains that were offered up. Most notable among them were sectors like energy and real estate. This has been a year where for the most part, those two sectors have been pummeled. But with two back to back vaccine progress news, things have perked up. While the initial blast off is encouraging, we believe this game is still in its early innings. But the field is still treacherous and the exact timeline of the recovery remains uncertain. Investors can do their own due diligence or perhaps pass the buck on to someone who knows this sector really well.
