Quick question about investing in a recession environment. Based on my research, there are a few types of ETFs that could be worth considering:
Defensive sector ETFs like consumer staples (XLP), utilities (XLU), and healthcare (XLV) tend to hold up better during downturns.
Treasury bond ETFs like IEF, VGIT, and TLT can provide safe haven protection as well.
Dividend-focused ETFs like VIG, DVY, and NOBL may offer more stability and income. Low volatility ETFs such as USMV, SPLV, and SPHD aim to reduce downside risk.
REITs (VNQ, IYR) and precious metals (GLD, IAU) can also provide diversification and potential upside in recessions.
some commodity ETFs like DBA, MOO, and VEGI may help hedge against stagflation.
Did I miss anything? what are your thoughts?
