2 Warren Buffett Stocks to Buy and Hold if the Market Crashes
The stock market hasn't performed well this year. As of this writing, all three major U.S. market indexes are comfortably in negative territory for the year with the worst-performing of the bunch, the Nasdaq Composite Index, down by 11%. Given current geopolitical tensions and their effect on worldwide economies, many investors might fear that we will experience a market crash at some point this year.
Of course, no one knows whether that will happen, but it can't hurt to prepare in advance. And in doing so, it's worth taking a page out of Warren Buffett's playbook. The Oracle of Omaha is known for not fearing downturns since they can present great opportunities to buy shares of excellent companies on the dip. Let's look at two of Buffett's favorite stocks that might be worth loading up on in the next market crash: Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) and Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.A) (NYSE: BRK.B).
