4 Ways to Brace Your Portfolio to Sleep Easy in a Market Crash
With the Federal Reserve finally getting serious about addressing inflation, there's a real chance that the stock market could crash again. After all, if interest rates go up and the money supply contracts, borrowers will have to pay more and lenders will get more for loans. That makes lending more attractive for investors and leaves less money available for stocks.
If you're an investor, you need to recognize that risk and prepare yourself for what could very well be rocky times ahead in the market. If you're smart about it, you can do that without abandoning the long-term growth potential that stocks provide. With that in mind, these four ways to brace your portfolio to sleep easy in a market crash can help you get through the rocky investing seas we could very well be facing soon.
