Play video for What Stock Would You Invest $5,000 in Right Now?DetailsGuestsIn this video, we share where we are investing for the best rate of return in 2023. We discuss investment options, why we chose these respective picks, and the expectations for those stocks. Chris recommends Coca-Cola as a safe and secure place to invest that pays a good dividend, while Thomas suggests Mullen Automotive as a high-risk penny stock with a lot of potential for growth if certain catalysts play out. Thomas also recommends Pepsi as another dividend king that has diversification in Frito-Lay.Stocks Mentioned in This EpisodeCompanyMarketRank™Current PriceDividend YieldP/E RatioMULNMullen AutomotiveN/A$4.79-14.8%N/AN/AKOCoca-Cola4.4063 of 5 stars$72.03-0.4%2.83%29.16TGTTarget4.9576 of 5 stars$98.08-2.7%4.57%10.40 Compare These Stocks Add These Stocks to My Watchlist Chris Markoch, GuestMarketBeat Contributor, MarketBeatChris Markoch is a freelance financial copywriter with over five years of experience covering various aspects of the financial markets. You may find his writing a little different than other stock articles you’ve read. And that’s OK with him. Chris doesn’t have a traditional finance background. What he does bring to the table is a strong business and marketing background having worked for agencies that serviced Fortune 500 companies. With that in mind, he isn’t overly impressed with what companies say, and more focused on what they do. And because buyer behavior dictates so much of what happens with a stock, Chris always keeps the end consumer close in mind. Chris has been writing for MarketBeat since 2018.Thomas Hughes, GuestMarketBeat Contributor, MarketBeatThomas got his start with the markets while working as a Chef. In 2005 a chance invitation to attend the seminar “How To Buy And Sell Your Own Stocks” altered his worldview.
