As an investor with significant positions in equities, I am an optimist. However, it’s important to be realistic at the same time. This helps in readjusting the portfolio depending on macroeconomic, geopolitical, and other headwinds. In my view, potential delay in rate cuts is likely to make the market nervous as it might imply a hard landing for the economy. I would therefore look at stocks to buy for a market crash. I must however add that I see the first-rate cut coming before the Presidential elections. Therefore, there are two strategies that I would consider for the coming quarters. First, buy low-beta blue-chip stocks that would protect the portfolio from capital erosion if there is a 10% to 15% correction in the index. Further, look at buying quality growth stocks if the broad markets indeed decline in the coming months. I expect a strong recovery in the markets towards the end of the year. For now, let’s discuss three stocks to buy for a market crash. Newmont Corporation (NEM) Source: Piotr Swat/Shutterstock Gold has declined from highs with tensions deescalating in the Middle East.
Big money tends to flow from one sector to the other. During the pandemic, sectors like pharmaceutical and e-commerce were hot. This was followed by major buying interest in electric vehicles and other energy transition themes. When money flows out from one sector, it generally translates into undervaluation. This seems to be the case with pharmaceutical stocks. During the covid-19 pandemic, the pharma sector witnessed big buying and valuations looked stretched. In the post pandemic world, the sector has been ignored. However, the pharmaceutical sector or the biotechnology sector bull story does not end with the pandemic. The lack of interest is a good opportunity to accumulate pharmaceutical stocks at a valuation gap for the next bull run. As unfortunate as it might sound, adverse health conditions continue to increase globally. This necessitates investment in new drugs and a big market for major pharmaceutical companies. The focus of this column is on pharma companies with a deep R&D pipeline that’s likely to translate into growth in the coming years.
