    Stocks to Watch Even As Markets Start the Day in the Red

    The markets are down this morning, indicating that investors are not confident of a return to pre-pandemic levels anytime soon. Labour numbers are still pointing to a generally sluggish economy. According to a report by JOLTS, hiring was slow in July despite an increase in job openings.

    The report showed that job openings in July were still much lower when compared to a year ago. While there is an improvement when compared to March/April, they still point to a market that is still relatively depressed and does not correlate to the massive run-up in price that the stock markets have experienced recently. As such, there could still be a sizeable number of investors that believe the markets are overvalued.

    The markets have also been dampened further by news that that the Oxford vaccine trials had been halted after complications. While this is just one of the many vaccines that are being tested, it points to the massive challenges that the world faces in the race to a vaccine.

    This means that the world could have to wait longer before a credible vaccine candidate is found. By extension, this means that large segments of the economy could continue to suffer in the near-term. Despite the dampened outlook, there are stocks that are gaining quite strongly this morning. Some of the big performers this morning that are likely to outperform the markets in the day are as below.
