Buying These 2 Stocks Is a Good Way to Hedge Against a Market Crash
Sailors have a saying -- "any port in a storm" -- meaning that you take safe harbor where you find it. Investors can do the equivalent of that, too, by fleeing to U.S. Treasury bonds in the event of a stock market crash.
Backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, the low-risk investment can provide needed ballast for your portfolio until the storm passes. Of course, the way inflation is running rampant, you're still likely to get submerged unless you go with something like I Bonds or Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities, which will at least keep your head above water.
