Technology and advancements in medical science may have helped mankind blunt the sting of the Covid-19 pandemic and avoid horrifying death tolls witnessed during pandemics in the past. However, this does not mean the pandemic won’t have a disruptive impact on our future. 

This means anybody seeking better investment opportunities in the future will have to assess and understand the impact of the pandemic on the various sectors of the US economy. 

Health Care

Health is Wealth—the pandemic has transformed a tired and cliched adage into an undeniable golden truth. Obviously, the post-pandemic future will witness a rush to secure our frail minds and bodies from health risks. 

Significant quantitative as well as qualitative opportunities will open up in the US as its dominant position in medical research, technology, and allied sectors make it the natural leader in the quest of better health for all.

Technology 

  • Finding a vaccine
  • Designing PPEs for safety of doctors and nurses
  • Tracking national and global spread of the virus
  • Keeping global trade running
  • Working from home 
  • Ordering products and services from home
  • Staying in touch even during isolation
  • Enjoying live entertainment 

all this and more has been possible only due to investing in technology. And going ahead, it’s obvious that technology will become an even more integral part of our lives. 

The benefits apart, this pandemic has also highlighted the inadequacies of our technologies as well. 

Self-driving automobiles could have prevent the near-total transportation breakdown caused by the pandemic. 

AI, Machine Learning and other high-end technologies will have to become more versatile to cater to dynamic challenges.  

Virtual reality tech and automation have not become robust enough to allow normal business operations during restrictions on physical movements and interactions. 

The pluses and minuses, combined together, create a fantastic opportunity for investors exploring the next big-ticket disruption that will permanently change the way we live, work, or play.

Travel, Hospitality, and Tourism

Taming the virus and suppressing the pandemic may be a matter of time but sectors like travel, hospitality, and tourism may have changed forever. 

But mankind is unlikely to completely stop going on holidays or entertaining in restaurants or traveling to different places. 

This means, just like technology, there is ample scope for experimentation with disruptive innovations and ideas in this sector.

Infrastructure

As a share of the GDP, state spending on infrastructure in the US is at a 50-year low. Fancy innovations and disruptions in exotic sectors may seem very glamorous but everything depends on availability of quality basic infrastructure. 

This means infrastructure continues to remain a vital area of focus for a smart investor who seeks to balance aggressive forays in innovations and new-age solutions with stable investments in defensive infrastructure sectors.    

Real Estate

As offices go virtual and as work from home becomes the norm, the commercial real estate sector in the US and across the world may face challenging times ahead. Yet, there’s nothing fundamentally wrong with the sector, which means demand will spring back if the concerns raised by the pandemic are addressed. 

Of course, the residential real estate sector will have to evolve and adapt the blurring of boundaries between work and personal spaces. 

Like the other sectors, the pandemic has brought forth challenges as well opportunities that, if utilized, can prove to be excellent and timely investments into the future.
