| |  Good morning. . Beyond Meat has been one of the bright spots of a tough (and busy!) IPO market this year. The plant-based meat alternative saw shares soar from an initial price of $25 to $160.

As a consequence, it's been a tough decade to invest in many financial company stocks. Nobody wants to have one of their positions be on the news over whether or not it will go bankrupt or get bailed out by the government! But the finance sector has plenty of opportunities.
