Watch This Growth Stock If the Market Crashes

The market is near all-time highs today, and a great many stocks look expensive. That's the case with industrial real estate investment trust Prologis (NYSE: PLD). In fact, the warehouse landlord often seems to trade at a premium price.

That makes its assets vital cogs in the supply chains that move products around the world.
