| From Our PartnersBen Franklin is often attributed with the statement “a penny saved is a penny earned.” The idea is that it is just as useful to save the money you already have as it is to earn more. It shouldn’t surprise me that sometimes the wisdom of over 200 years still applies to investing today.
And that statement sums up the attitude of the risk-averse investors.
In investing, the preservation of capital growth is essential to a solid portfolio. But over time, you know that stocks are the way to get that growth.
So assuming you’re still reading this, I’ll assume you don’t want to avoid stocks. Even at a volatile time like this. But you want to hold on to the gains that you make.
Fortunately, there are many stocks that can help you achieve those objectives. And we’ve selected 7 stocks that are ideal for risk-averse investors.
The stocks in this presentation feature beta values that are less than 1. This means that they are not as volatile as the market. You won’t get some of the higher highs. But you won’t get the lower lows either.
The other attribute that all these stocks share is a solid dividend. Regular dividend payments are an exceptional way for investors to improve their portfolio’s total return regardless of market conditions.
And don’t worry. There’s more here than utilities (there is one) and REITs (there are none here, but they still are a solid play). These companies are showing their strength despite the ongoing pandemic. And once the country is on the other side of things, these stocks should be well-positioned for whatever the economy looks like. | | View the Stocks Here |
