Buy Hold Sell: 5 stocks in a hot sector

After underperforming the benchmark for more than a decade, financials are back - buoyed by a sudden switch to cyclical and economically sensitive stocks and an all-encompassing fear of impending inflation.  Since Pfizer and BioNTech's vaccine announcement in early November last year, Aussie financial stocks have risen nearly 30%, far outpacing the S&P/ASX 200's still impressive 11% return.  So, what are the biggest growth plays in the sector? Buckle up my friends, because in this episode of Buy Hold Sell, Livewire Markets' James Marlay sits down with local large-cap legends Matthew Haupt from Wilson Asset Management and Scott Olsson from Firetrail Investments to answer this very question.  Plus, they also share one COVID-bashed stock they believe is ready for a rebound.  Note: You can watch, read or listen to the discussion below.
