The past decade has rewarded investors with remarkable returns, but investors might not want to underestimate the odds that an economic recession could be looming. The average period of economic growth lasted just 3.2 years up until 2009, and that data alone could suggest this bull market expansion has gotten a little long in the tooth.
Owning these big-cap stocks the next time the economy sours could be profit-friendly. If you're concerned the economy is on borrowed time, then here's why adding Waste Management (NYSE:WM), Brookfield Renewable Partners (NYSE:BEP), and McDonald's (NYSE:MCD) to your portfolio could be wise.
