Four top coronavirus recovery stocks to consider buying feature an array of companies that provide products or services that are finding increased demand in the wake of the COVID-19 public health emergency.
One company doubled its share price in less than two months but may have room to rise as it seeks to help detect COVID-19. Others among the four top coronavirus recovery stocks to consider buying include one offering gold mining, another selling pet products online and a third giving online retail access to small businesses that largely have been shut down across the country.
Quidel Corp. (NASDAQ: QDEL), a San Diego-based provider of rapid diagnostic testing solutions, cellular-based virology assays and molecular diagnostic systems, soared 109.58% between when it was recommended in the Home Run Trader advisory service on March 23 and the close of trading on May 19. The share price of Quidel has jumped amid reports that the company could become at least part of the solution to improve testing for the novel coronavirus that had led to 4,985,825 cases and 324,889 deaths globally, along with 1,570,583 cases and 95,553 deaths in the United States, as of May 19.
Quidel is a growth-oriented NASDAQ stock and that index during the past 10 years has beaten all other major U.S. stock indexes, gold, silver and oil as the best-performing place for investors, as the following chart shows.

“Gold is an age-old storehouse of wealth,” said Hilary Kramer, host of a national radio program called “Millionaire Maker” and head of the Value Authority and GameChangers advisory services. “If you’re primarily worried about losing what you have to inflation, a slowing economy or even social upheaval, this is your shield.”
