The value in Banks stocks rose 10.4 percent on Nov. 8 from the previous day.

The strongest performing Banks company in Indiana was Finward Bancorp (FNWD:NAQ), sitting 386.7 percent higher to sell at $30.89.

First Savings Financial Group Inc. (FSFG:NAQ) fared the worst among Indiana companies, suffering a 58.6 percent drop to $22.4.

Among Corydon companies, First Capital Inc. (FCAP:NAQ) saw the highest rise in value of 354 percent on Nov. 8.

The Tobacco industry was the daily best-performing industry on the market. The market is divided into 45 different industries.

Telecommunications Service Providers was the worst-performing industry.

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.
