The sharp bounce off the lows for the market have caused many stocks to rally. The dramatic shift to the new “stay-home” economy will leave some companies behind, while others will thrive. It may feel impossible to figure out which is which. One of the best tools an investor can use is the Zacks Rank.

Knowing that is coming, investors can then decide if that’s a trend they’d like to wait out or avoid altogether. This way, you can let the analysts all over Wall Street do the research while you just follow the money.
