Investing During A Recession: How To Protect Your Nest Egg

Like most people, you’re probably wondering what you should do to protect your finances and make some money during this difficult time.

“Fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful.”

Buying Stocks During a Recession

Stocks are classified into different sectors so that investors can make better comparisons between stocks.

Dividend Stocks

Dividend-paying stocks are recession fighters and can help lower portfolio risk because they provide an income stream.

Dividends will offset losses in a portfolio and reduce portfolio volatility.

Mutual Funds and Exchange-Traded Funds

For a recession, you can find funds that hold mostly health care stocks or only consumer staple stocks, etc.

Closed-End Funds

With the increased market risk, investors can buy closed-end funds at a discount and wait for the price to match the NAV.
