Knee replacements and similar procedures had been increasing 2% to 4% every year for about 40 years, apart from a flat year between 2008 and 2009. But they fell 15% last year as people avoided hospitals because of COVID-19, notes Ely.</p><p>“We see these coming back. You can’t put off getting your knee done, or your ankle done, or your hip done forever,” he said. Pacira’s products will cut the risk of an opioid addiction, he adds, pointing to data showing 40% of people who end up addicted got there as the result of surgery.</p><p>While opiates have been popular because they’re cheap and get the job done, the playing field for companies like Pacira has been leveled thanks to a bipartisan opiates support bill of a couple of years ago that subsidizes non-opioid anesthesia, he noted.</p><p>His next pick taps into what everyone is looking for — companies levered to consumers or consumer interaction. “I have kids in their late 20s, late teens — they can’t wait to get back out there and go to an event, go back to the gym, go to restaurants, travel, what have you,” he said.</p><p>That leads him to stocks like ride-hailing group LyftLYFT,-2.67%,which he said has been getting costs under control and is specifically leveraged to helping consumers return to those activities.

First off, people are having babies when they’re older, in general people are having more trouble having babies just flat out, and more and more corporations want to show that they care, and want to help employees in areas that they can. This is a terrific benefit for people to sign up for,” he said.</p><p>Many may have discovered during the pandemic problems with conceiving children, and may be ready to seek that treatment. Progyny did an initial public offering last January, went through the pandemic and did well, but then investors got rattled by some disappointment with revenue, Ely said.</p><p>“There’s nothing wrong with the business, they were just being conservative going into the year, which every company does” he said.</p><p>Ely reiterated the importance of investing early in an economic cycle, set to get kick-started by the recent U.S. fiscal stimulus package. “Right now, we are seven to eight months into a new economic cycle,” he said. Previous bull markets have lasted eight to nine years on average, and equities, notably small companies due to their leverage in an improving economy, tend to perform better, he added.</p><p>“The biggest risk to investors out there right now is not taking risk, [or being] blinded by these stories that the world isn’t going to be great.
