Central bankers raised their GDP expectations for this year to 7% from 6.5% previously. </p>\n<p>Their unemployment rate estimate remained unchanged at 4.5%. In further evidence that the resumption of business activity has helped get people back to work, the government's latest initial jobless claims total is expected to drop to a new pandemic low of 360,000 for last week. </p>\n<p>The report is issued at 8:30 a.m. ET Thursday.

The treatment was 47% effective in a clinical trial, compared to more than 90% for other mRNA-based vaccines fromModerna(MRNA) andPfizer(PFE).</p>\n<p><b>Novavax(NVAX),BioNTech(BNTX)</b> – On the heels of the CureVac news, Novavax added 3.4% in the premarket while BioNTech rose 2.6%. BioNTech's Covid vaccine – developed in partnership with Pfizer – is already approved for use in the US, while Novavax reported 90% efficacy for its vaccine in a recent study.</p>\n<p><b>The Honest Company(HNST)</b> – The household products maker reported a wider-than-expected loss in its first quarter as a public company, although revenue was better than analysts had anticipated. Sales got a boost from pandemic-induced demand for sanitizing products. The stock tumbled 8.3% in premarket trading.</p>\n<p><b>Tenet Healthcare(THC)</b> – The hospital operator's shares jumped 3.5% in the premarket, after it announced the sale of five hospitals and associated physician practices in Florida to Steward Health Care for about $1.1 billion.</p>\n<p><b>Lennar(LEN)</b> – Lennar earned $2.65 per share for its latest quarter, beating the $2.36 a share consensus estimate. Revenue topped forecasts as well. The home builder is dealing with higher input costs and a labor shortage, but the lack of homes for sale in the U.S. helped push prices higher and expand Lennar's profit margins significantly over a year earlier.</p>\n<p><b>Dell Technologies(DELL)</b> – Dell was chosen byDish Network(DISH) to build key parts of the 5G network the satellite TV operator is building in the United States. Dish will launch 5G service in Las Vegas later this year and plans to cover 70% of the U.S. with its network by mid-2023.</p>\n<p><b>Fisker(FSR)</b> – Fisker shares added 2.8% in the premarket after the electric vehicle maker signed a long-term manufacturing agreement withMagna International(MGA).

The department said the combinationcould eliminate competitionin several different markets. Aon and Willis Towers said the move showed a lack of understanding of their businesses, clients and the markets in which they operate.</p>\n<p><b>Akamai Technologies(AKAM)</b> – A variety of financial institutions, governments and airlines experienced brief website outages early Thursday.

As recently as last summer, 10-year Treasurys&nbsp;commanded a 0.5% rate. That means interest rates have tripled in less than a year.</p>\n<p>Rapid changes like that can have a real impact on your portfolio. Consider that the massive iShares Core U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF,which has $85 billion under management, has dipped 4% already this year even as the S&amp;P 500 Index&nbsp;of the largest U.S. stocks has powered 5% higher.</p>\n<p>Some analysts predict&nbsp;rates are only getting started, thanks to stimulus checks, government spending and the long-shot chance of tighter policies from the Federal Reserve later this year.</p>\n<p>If you want to insulate your portfolio from rising rates, here are five low-risk value stocks that could see you through any choppiness in the months ahead.</p>\n<p><b>Bank of America</b></p>\n<p>Historically, increases in interest rates mean expanding profit margins for the financial sector. And Bank of America,&nbsp;the second-largest U.S. bank by assets, has a massive scale that is sure to pay off as rates rise.</p>\n<p>The stock isn’t just seeing momentum recently because of the prospect of higher rates. The shares are up almost 60% in the past 12 months since the COVID-19 lows of 2020, outperforming the S&amp;P 500 in the same period.&nbsp; It’s also riding an impressive streak of earnings reports, topping Wall Street expectations in 15 of the last 16 quarters.</p>\n<p>Adding to the appeal is that at the end of 2020 iconic investor Warren Buffett and his Berkshire Hathaway&nbsp;investment company pumped more than&nbsp;$2 billioninto Bank of America’s stock to push the stake up to nearly 12% of the entire company. That puts BofA as the No. 2 position in Berkshire’s portfolio, behind&nbsp;only tech giant Apple,and giving the stock a huge vote of confidence. What’s more, Buffett &amp; Co. sought approval from the Federal Reserve to double that already massive investment, up to a total of&nbsp;24.9%&nbsp;of Bank of America’s outstanding shares.</p>\n<p>Adjusted for splits, BofA stock is back to levels not seen since 2008, before the financial crisis sent shares to low single digits and resulted in a dividend reduction to just a penny per share. The combination of a rising rate environment, strong institutional buying pressure and massive scale make this stock a stable investment that investors may want to look into.</p>\n<p><b>Johnson &amp; Johnson</b></p>\n<p>Another mega-cap stock that should be a familiar favorite of value investors, Johnson &amp; Johnson&nbsp;stands out because of a combination of intrinsic value and specific factors that should help it thrive despite the challenges of 2021.</p>\n<p>J&amp;J is one of only&nbsp;two&nbsp;S&amp;P&nbsp;500 companies (tech giant Microsoft&nbsp;is the other) with a perfect&nbsp;AAA credit rating.&nbsp;It’s also among the 10 largest U.S. companies by market cap, boasts $25 billion in cash and tallies more than $20 billion in annual operating cash flow. When it comes to stability and tangible value on the balance sheet, it’s hard to top this health-care giant.</p>\n<p>In 2021, there are also a few factors that should help J&amp;J power even higher. While it is too big and stable to get quite the short-term momentum of a stock like Moderna&nbsp;or Novavax,J&amp;J is set to benefit from a nice tailwind thanks to the fact its own single-dose coronavirus vaccine received&nbsp;Emergency Use Authorization&nbsp;from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in late February.</p>\n<p>Johnson &amp; Johnson has a tremendous portfolio of health-care products to fall back on beyond the vaccine, including over-the-counter medication like Tylenol and its eponymous baby-care products, prescription drugs and medical devices. If you want a “sure thing” stock in an uncertain market environment, it could be hard to find a better candidate than JNJ.</p>\n<p><b>Walmart</b></p>\n<p>Keeping with the theme of tremendous scale, big box retailer Walmart&nbsp;is a $380 billion powerhouse that recorded more than $36 billion in operating cash flow last fiscal year. It’s up nearly 50% from its 2020 lows, outperforming the major stock market indexes in the same period, thanks in part to selling groceries and household goods that have remained in strong demand despite disruptions to other spending categories.</p>\n<p>This bodes well for the stability of Walmart going forward, as these categories should remain strong for the foreseeable future. Furthermore, the pandemic forced WMT to increase its already impressive digital penetration with customers and accelerated its membership platform Walmart+. This service, at $12 a month or $98 a year, allows for free next-day shipping with no minimum orders and free-from-store delivery for orders of at least $35. There’s even a 5-cent saving on gasoline for members, making this program seem like as good of a value as WMT stock itself.</p>\n<p>The icing on the cake is an impressive track record of 48 years of consecutive dividend increase that proves Walmart isn’t just a reliable source of income but also a stock that’s committed to its shareholders. Dividends are a tangible sign of real value in a stock, as you have to have regular and material profits to back them up, and a long history of increase shows long-term value investors can depend on WMT regardless of short-term ups and downs for the U.S. economy.</p>\n<p><b>CVS</b></p>\n<p>Though you may think of CVS&nbsp;as simply a retailer of a different sort, the reality is that CVS has become much more than a drugstore in 2021. Over the past few years, an investment in acute care and vaccination services in-store has paid off big time as CVS is now a critical part of the vaccine rollout in the U.S. In fact, a recent Wall Street Journal report noted the company has delivered over&nbsp;3 million vaccines.</p>\n<p>That’s a short-term opportunity, to be sure. But more importantly, it has brought all those customers into its store and signed many of them up for marketing updates or its ExtraCare rewards program to keep them coming back over the long haul.</p>\n<p>Speaking of the long haul, investors should not be fooled into thinking this is just a vaccine play. CVS has been shrewd in recent years, growing into a dominant provider of pharmacy benefit management solutions&nbsp; and even acquiring primary care insurance provider&nbsp;Aetna in 2018. These operations ensure CVS thrives whether individual patients come in to their brick-and-mortar stores with a prescription or not. In fact, under the Global Industry Classification Standard the stock is grouped into “health-care plans” with other stocks like Cigna&nbsp;and UnitedHealthGroup&nbsp;and not with retailers.</p>\n<p>The kicker is that CVS has a forward price-to-earnings ratio of about 9 right now, less than half that of the S&amp;P 500’s 22, and well below peers like UNH in its industry group that are around 20. With a health-care focus that insulates it from rates and an attractive valuation, CVS is worth a look.</p>\n<p><b>General Motors</b></p>\n<p>I made the case for General Motors&nbsp;earlier this year in a&nbsp;MarketWatch column. And with shares up about 40% year-to-date, it’s worth repeating that call here as GM has a lot of intrinsic value and remains at an attractive price even after this run.</p>\n<p>Case in point: GM is sitting on a forward P/E of less than 7, compared with 11 for Toyota&nbsp;and about 22 for the market at large.</p>\n<p>You might say that’s because the market is discounting GM’s stock for a lack of innovation in the age of electric vehicles. But the truth is that GM is actually running with the pack of EV manfucaturers quite well. Its new&nbsp;Ultium battery power system&nbsp;is modular, allowing it to grow quickly into the many vehicle lines offered by this legacy automaker, and its BrightDrop subsidiary continues to innovate with developments include a&nbsp;250-mile range delivery van.

As recently as last summer, 10-year Treasurys commanded a 0.5% rate. That means interest rates have tripled in less than a year.\nRapid changes like that can have a real impact on your portfolio. Consider that the massive iShares Core U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF,which has $85 billion under management, has dipped 4% already this year even as the S&P 500 Index of the largest U.S. stocks has powered 5% higher.\nSome analysts predict rates are only getting started, thanks to stimulus checks, government spending and the long-shot chance of tighter policies from the Federal Reserve later this year.\nIf you want to insulate your portfolio from rising rates, here are five low-risk value stocks that could see you through any choppiness in the months ahead.\nBank of America\nHistorically, increases in interest rates mean expanding profit margins for the financial sector. And Bank of America, the second-largest U.S. bank by assets, has a massive scale that is sure to pay off as rates rise.\nThe stock isn’t just seeing momentum recently because of the prospect of higher rates. The shares are up almost 60% in the past 12 months since the COVID-19 lows of 2020, outperforming the S&P 500 in the same period.  It’s also riding an impressive streak of earnings reports, topping Wall Street expectations in 15 of the last 16 quarters.\nAdding to the appeal is that at the end of 2020 iconic investor Warren Buffett and his Berkshire Hathaway investment company pumped more than $2 billioninto Bank of America’s stock to push the stake up to nearly 12% of the entire company. That puts BofA as the No. 2 position in Berkshire’s portfolio, behind only tech giant Apple,and giving the stock a huge vote of confidence. What’s more, Buffett & Co. sought approval from the Federal Reserve to double that already massive investment, up to a total of 24.9% of Bank of America’s outstanding shares.\nAdjusted for splits, BofA stock is back to levels not seen since 2008, before the financial crisis sent shares to low single digits and resulted in a dividend reduction to just a penny per share. The combination of a rising rate environment, strong institutional buying pressure and massive scale make this stock a stable investment that investors may want to look into.\nJohnson & Johnson\nAnother mega-cap stock that should be a familiar favorite of value investors, Johnson & Johnson stands out because of a combination of intrinsic value and specific factors that should help it thrive despite the challenges of 2021.\nJ&J is one of only two S&P 500 companies (tech giant Microsoft is the other) with a perfect AAA credit rating. It’s also among the 10 largest U.S. companies by market cap, boasts $25 billion in cash and tallies more than $20 billion in annual operating cash flow. When it comes to stability and tangible value on the balance sheet, it’s hard to top this health-care giant.\nIn 2021, there are also a few factors that should help J&J power even higher. While it is too big and stable to get quite the short-term momentum of a stock like Moderna or Novavax,J&J is set to benefit from a nice tailwind thanks to the fact its own single-dose coronavirus vaccine received Emergency Use Authorization from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in late February.\nJohnson & Johnson has a tremendous portfolio of health-care products to fall back on beyond the vaccine, including over-the-counter medication like Tylenol and its eponymous baby-care products, prescription drugs and medical devices. If you want a “sure thing” stock in an uncertain market environment, it could be hard to find a better candidate than JNJ.\nWalmart\nKeeping with the theme of tremendous scale, big box retailer Walmart is a $380 billion powerhouse that recorded more than $36 billion in operating cash flow last fiscal year. It’s up nearly 50% from its 2020 lows, outperforming the major stock market indexes in the same period, thanks in part to selling groceries and household goods that have remained in strong demand despite disruptions to other spending categories.\nThis bodes well for the stability of Walmart going forward, as these categories should remain strong for the foreseeable future. Furthermore, the pandemic forced WMT to increase its already impressive digital penetration with customers and accelerated its membership platform Walmart+. This service, at $12 a month or $98 a year, allows for free next-day shipping with no minimum orders and free-from-store delivery for orders of at least $35. There’s even a 5-cent saving on gasoline for members, making this program seem like as good of a value as WMT stock itself.\nThe icing on the cake is an impressive track record of 48 years of consecutive dividend increase that proves Walmart isn’t just a reliable source of income but also a stock that’s committed to its shareholders. Dividends are a tangible sign of real value in a stock, as you have to have regular and material profits to back them up, and a long history of increase shows long-term value investors can depend on WMT regardless of short-term ups and downs for the U.S. economy.\nCVS\nThough you may think of CVS as simply a retailer of a different sort, the reality is that CVS has become much more than a drugstore in 2021. Over the past few years, an investment in acute care and vaccination services in-store has paid off big time as CVS is now a critical part of the vaccine rollout in the U.S. In fact, a recent Wall Street Journal report noted the company has delivered over 3 million vaccines.\nThat’s a short-term opportunity, to be sure. But more importantly, it has brought all those customers into its store and signed many of them up for marketing updates or its ExtraCare rewards program to keep them coming back over the long haul.\nSpeaking of the long haul, investors should not be fooled into thinking this is just a vaccine play. CVS has been shrewd in recent years, growing into a dominant provider of pharmacy benefit management solutions  and even acquiring primary care insurance provider Aetna in 2018. These operations ensure CVS thrives whether individual patients come in to their brick-and-mortar stores with a prescription or not. In fact, under the Global Industry Classification Standard the stock is grouped into “health-care plans” with other stocks like Cigna and UnitedHealthGroup and not with retailers.\nThe kicker is that CVS has a forward price-to-earnings ratio of about 9 right now, less than half that of the S&P 500’s 22, and well below peers like UNH in its industry group that are around 20. With a health-care focus that insulates it from rates and an attractive valuation, CVS is worth a look.\nGeneral Motors\nI made the case for General Motors earlier this year in a MarketWatch column. And with shares up about 40% year-to-date, it’s worth repeating that call here as GM has a lot of intrinsic value and remains at an attractive price even after this run.\nCase in point: GM is sitting on a forward P/E of less than 7, compared with 11 for Toyota and about 22 for the market at large.\nYou might say that’s because the market is discounting GM’s stock for a lack of innovation in the age of electric vehicles. But the truth is that GM is actually running with the pack of EV manfucaturers quite well. Its new Ultium battery power system is modular, allowing it to grow quickly into the many vehicle lines offered by this legacy automaker, and its BrightDrop subsidiary continues to innovate with developments include a 250-mile range delivery van. GM has publicly pledged to have a 100% electric portfolio by 2035, and is well on its way to that long-term goal.\nNow, you may write off this promise as the desperate public relations campaign of a company that has already been eclipsed by Tesla.But GM has one big thing Tesla doesn’t — a mature manufacturing operation that cranks out 7.7 million vehicles a year, and property and equipment valued at almost $80 billion, according to SEC filings.\nYes, the pandemic has created short-term disruptions for the automaker. And yes, there is long-term risk of missing out on the EV revolution. But GM has a ton of intrinsic value right now. And if rates are rising thanks to an economic recovery, you can expect folks to eagerly spend on GM vehicles rather than pay more in financing costs or sticker price later.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":179,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"defaultTab":"posts","isTTM":true}
