Sure, I get it: You’re searching for the best, soundest stocks to buy in the market. You seek that secret sauce that will make you profitable heading into 2025.

What you may not know is that it's not necessarily about fundamental or technical analysis. It's all about a handful of mega-cap stocks, and here's why.

So, when volatility and direction are ominous, the real question is: What do you do as a last resort?

We’re going to get into that right now.
