Looking for the best stocks to buy after the Fed raised interest rates? The Fed just made its move, and Wall Street is panicking over retail stocks... but the real data on consumer spending tells a very different story. Andy Swan with TradeSmith joins Bridget Bennett to break down why the sell-off is way overdone, and why the top 10% of spenders are still driving strong demand across the economy even with rates moving higher.
Andy walks through three stocks he's buying on this dip right now, using TradeSmith's real-time consumer data instead of Wall Street sentiment to make the case. He also explains why institutional buying patterns are lining up with what the data is already showing, and why this could be one of the best buying opportunities in retail stocks this year.
