Have covered asset management and always enjoyed the challenge. Plus it helps when you can frame it as “caring for everyone’s retirement”.

Will places like Verizon, Comcast, and Netflix do better than the economy as a whole? What about finance?

Telecom will be fine, in fact I expect them to thrive with the market monopolies they enjoy. Biotech and Pharma will be fine as well, although there are always cyclical market dynamics impacting those industries that have resulted in periodic layoffs. Wouldn’t bet long term on niche tech platforms like Netflix; any undiversified business hinging on favorable relations with telecom companies is not a safe long term bet.
