The stock market has witnessed wild swings as the multi-decade high inflation, dawdling supply chain, and other macroeconomic headwinds have battered the economy. Moreover, the consumer price index rose 9.1% on a year-over-year basis in June, higher than the anticipated 8.8%.

Additionally, the Fed is committed to bringing down inflation. It might launch another 75-basis point hike this month and a possible 50 basis point hike in September, which are raising the odds of a recession.

However, according to the Bank of America, the ongoing bear market is creating attractive valuations and opportunities for long-term investors.

So, we think investors could grab quality stocks Zoom Video Communications, Inc. (ZM), Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Limited (TEVA), and Trulieve Cannabis Corp. (TCNNF), which are poised to stage a rebound soon.

In the same month, ZM announced the general availability of Zoom Apps SDK, which provides developers with the resources and support infrastructure needed to build Zoom Apps within the Zoom client.
