Value in Financials stocks rose 82.6 percent on July 29 from the previous day.

The strongest performing Financials company in Arizona was Artemis Strategic Investment Corp. (ARTE:NMQ), sitting 395.1 percent higher to sell at $9.99.

Voya Global Equity Dividend and Premium Opportunity Fund (IGD:NYQ) experienced the smallest increase in share price among Arizona companies, rising 5.4 percent to sell at $5.64.

Among Scottsdale companies, Voya Emerging Markets High Dividend Equity Fund (IHD:NYQ) saw the highest rise in value of 220.3 percent on July 29.

The Financials sector was the daily best-performing sector on the market.

Consumer Staples was the worst-performing sector.

Healthcare and technology stocks are viewed as the safest bets for long-term gains.

Besty Kuekcer with Benzinga.com said healthcare-related stocks, such as hospital conglomerates and insurance companies, have weathered numerous economic crises and still make a profit, suggesting that they are generally a stable investment.

While technology stocks can be more risky, given the boom-bust nature of new tech companies, Kuecker recommended a diverse portfolio of tech companies to strike it big when companies succeed or sell to other larger companies.

For short-term investments, Kuecker recommended “consumer discretionary” stocks, which are sensitive to economic changes but can rise greatly on the back of a strong economy.
