On CNBC's "Fast Money Halftime Report," Jenny Harrington advised a viewer to buy Medical Properties Trust, Inc. (NYSE:MPW) for a long term. She bought it because it has consistently grown earnings in the 8% range. It has also grown the dividend by 3.5%.
Stephen Weiss said Vuzix Corp (NASDAQ:VUZI) and Jumia Technologies AG (NYSE:JMIA) are highly speculative. He still has positive returns in these names, but he has cut back. Weiss sees a very, very bright long-term future for Vuzix And Jumia, but they're not the right stocks for this market.
