September will be over this week, but the other month that can sometimes prove dangerous is on deck. October has been notorious when it comes to big sell-offs, and while a huge crash doesn’t seem likely, the bottom line is some black swan event like 9/11 is always in the cards. The question for investors getting nervous about the market, the election and the general state of the global macro picture is what stocks will hold up best if we do get hit hard.
We screened the Merrill Lynch research universe looking for stocks that were rated Buy, had a decent dividends, and also had the safest volatility risk rating at the firm We found four companies that makes sense for investors getting a touch nervous about the overall market: AT&T Inc. (NYSE: T), Colgate-Palmolive Co. (NYSE: CL), Coca-Cola Co. (NYSE: KO) and NextEra Energy Inc. (NYSE: NEE).
