This list was provided to me in 2017 by a great trader by the name of Teresa in a wonderful community of traders. Since this is from 2017, some tickers may be outdated or do not exist; if this is the case please comment on this post and shout out which ones.


We have a hurricane that is about to set record landfalls (Hurricane Ian) I felt it was appropriate to post the watch list that she had created during these tragic events.


Even if you do not trade off of any of this watchlist, you can use it as a guide to watch and understand the effects of a hurricane this size has on the economy as a whole.
