The tech-heavy Nasdaq plunged on Wednesday as two big names turned in disappointing report cards for the second quarter. But with a Fed interest rate cut likely in September, we continue to be positive on the equity markets, despite recent volatility. Consider the international stock fund VanEck Africa Index ETF (AFK), suggests Brian Kelly, editor of Money Letter.

US stocks took a bit of a breather earlier this week as traders evaluated opportunities after an approximate first half gain of 15% in the S&P 500. New inflation numbers due soon are also containing activity. For domestic stock funds, I have one new “Buy” this week: The SPDR Portfolio S&P 500 Growth ETF (SPYG), explains Brian Kelly, editor of Money Letter.

Back in March, I posited: “With a bump up in inflation, early signs of economic weakness – and with the markets at all-time highs – we have a recipe for volatility.” As it turns out, April and May gave us just that. But the good news is, the S&P 500’s 5% decline in early April has been recovered, and the fundamental elements for further gains are still intact. I like the Hennessy Cornerstone Mid Cap 30 Fund (HFMDX) here, says Brian Kelly, editor of Money Letter.

US markets finished mixed on Wednesday after the benchmark S&P 500 declined 1.6% on Tuesday. The indices reversed course late in the afternoon after the Dow was up more than 500 points. Yesterday’s action coincided with Fed Day, with the Open Market Committee deciding – as expected – to leave the fed funds rate unchanged. Fidelity Magellan (FMAGX) is a domestic stock fund I like, says Brian Kelly, editor of Money Letter.
