First Merchants Corp. (FRME:NSQ) in Muncie saw a -2.9 percent change on Wall Street in the year leading up to Sept. 1.

On Sept. 1, shares in the First Merchants Corp. company were selling at $39.88. One year before, these shares were trading at $41.07.

First Merchants Corp. employs 1,820 people and has reported $187,610,000 USD in income.

In the fluctuating stock market, 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, meaning they’re 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.
