3 Sectors That Can Thrive in a Stock Market Crash
When the curtain closes on 2020, there's little doubt it'll find its way into the history books for its wild volatility. In a roughly six-month span, we witnessed the steepest bear market decline of at least 30% in history, as well as the most ferocious rebound from a bear market bottom on record. Many of the stock market's biggest nominal single-day gains and losses have been set since February.
But even with the benchmark S&P 500 completely retracing its coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) losses, the potential for another stock market crash remains high. Fundamentally, mortgage and auto loan delinquencies are rising, the unemployment and underemployment rates remain well above historical norms, and there's no telling if or when we'll have a workable coronavirus vaccine.
