Buy These 4 Stocks to Help You Sleep at Night

NYSE: RMD | ResMed Inc. News, Ratings, and Charts

RMD – A strong housing market has positive effects on many parts of the economy. The pandemic has also been a catalyst for rising home prices and led to an increase in household spending. Mattress stocks should also rise due to these factors in the coming months. RMD, SNBR, ETH, and CSPR are four mattress stocks to consider.

A strong housing market has many effects on different sectors. For example, there’s an increased demand for dryers and washing machines, home renovations, and real estate activity.
 
Due to the pandemic, spending in many areas is depressed which has led to an increase in spending to upgrade homes. One part of the stock market that investors should look at if they expect the housing market to remain strong are mattress stocks. When the housing market is strong, there tends to be an increase in mattress sales.
 
Here is a quick look at four sleep-related stocks likely to spike as the uneasiness continues: ResMed Inc. (RMD), Sleep Number Corporation (SNBR), Ethan Allen Interiors (ETH), and Casper Sleep (CSPR).
