While it has become somewhat clear that the stock market and much of Wall Street may be rooting for a Hillary Clinton victory, a come-from-behind victory by Donald Trump could always happen. If it does, we could be in for a huge selling spree. The market in general fears a Trump win as trade could be affected, and it sees a Clinton win as pretty much maintaining the status quo.
However, in the event Trump does win, there could be some big selling, and stocks that are more volatile, and especially those in the overcrowded areas like semiconductors, could get hit hard. With interest rates still staying low, and investor still looking for yield, we found four very safe stocks in the Merrill Lynch research universe rated Buy with the firm’s top volatility and risk rating for safety: AT&T Inc. (NYSE: T), Colgate-Palmolive Co. (NYSE: CL), Home Depot Inc. (NYSE: HD) and NextEra Energy Inc. (NYSE: NEE).
