2 Crash-Resistant Stocks Worth Buying and Holding No Matter What the Market Does
Yahoo Finance ·
The current bull market, which started on Oct. 12, 2022, is nearly four years old. The S&P 500 ( ^GSPC -0.52% ) has generated a total return of 128% with reinvested dividends during that period, but it's starting to look expensive at 30 times its trailing 12-month earnings. Since the end of World War II, the average bull market has lasted for five and a half years. Therefore, it's only a matter of time before the next market crash drives stocks into a bear market. It might be tempting to liquidate your stocks before that happens, but it's smarter to simply park your cash in a few crash-resistant stocks and ride out the volatility. Let's take a look at two resilient stocks that fit that description: GE Vernova ( GEV -0.18% ) and Quanta Services ( PWR +0.21% ) . Both of these electrification stocks are benefiting from the AI boom, but they'll also withstand a market crash better than their industry peers. GE Vernova, the former energy division of General Electric ( GE -0.08% ) , was spun off as a stand-alone company in 2024. Its stock has risen more than sixfold since its market debut.
