Energy is a strong sector, and should be a good employer.

You will also want to find out about the market and sector.

Rent control forces the private sector to directly subsidize public programs. 

I have read some articles that the general global economy has been slowing down a bit, primarily the manufacturing sector. 

We have a large health care sector with Children's, Riverside, Ohio Health, Grant, THE Ohio State University and Mount Carmel.

I would not hunt for multi family or commercial real estate at this time since those sectors are getting hammered.

There are only a few people in the sector that I would recommend as most of the insurance agents are not familiar, or not willing to minimize their commission to maximize the cash value of a policy. 

Therefore in my humble opinion we're not in a housing bubble right now.Comments by @Michelle Bright and @Victor Gutierrez about other sectors of the economy (commercial real estate, stocks, etc.) have me worried.  

Most folk thinks the source of inflation is mainly from Fed printing money, but if we examine the CPI closely, the crazy inflation only occurred mainly in two sectors: Energy and gas.

When the Fed decides to "fight inflation" and raises rates, and then when the Government decides to insure mortgages and then makes that mortgage insurance harder to get, well, that limits growth in the housing sector causing home prices to skyrocket while people’s incomes remain stagnant.
