Darin Richards, Aldrich Wealth CIO, appeared on CNBC’s Power Lunch to discuss investment strategies and his top picks.

Darin’s outlook:

  • U.S. is in later stages of an economic cycle and growth will be fairly modest.
  • Companies that are able to grow faster than the economy will be rewarded.
  • U.S. dollar could resume strengthening trend and limit profit growth.
  • Weaker Euro has increased profitability among exporters.
  • Recovering oil prices benefit energy biz, driving increasing spreads in high yield bonds.
  • Consider larger position in high yield bonds.
