3 Blue Chip Stocks to Buy as the S&P 500 Flirts With Bear Market Territory
The S&P 500 index, a benchmark for the broader stock market, briefly dipped into bear market territory last week, which means the index fell at least 20% in value from recent sustained highs. It has been a difficult year for the stock market and the pain may not be done yet.
Given that uncertainty, it may not be a bad idea for investors to take a look at blue-chip stocks which are well-known, high-quality companies that are leaders in their industries.
Here are three good blue-chip stocks to check out as the S&P 500 flirts with bear territory.
Berkshire Hathaway
While most stocks are trading down a lot this year, Warren Buffett’s company, Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A -0.34%)(BRK.B -0.16%), has managed to stay roughly flat on the year, widely outperforming the S&P 500.
JPMorgan Chase
America’s largest bank by assets, JPMorgan Chase‘s (JPM -0.06%) stock price has fallen more than 27% this year amid high inflation, rising interest rates, and fears of a recession. Those factors aren’t great for banks because of how linked to the economy they are. Investors were also not pleased on recent earnings calls when JPMorgan guided for expense growth of more than 8% in 2022. But the bank will also benefit from rising interest rates, which most banks do.
Mastercard
The sprawling payments network Mastercard (MA 1.31%) has built a strong moat. It helps businesses and consumers process payments in more than 200 countries and has developed one of the largest payment rails in the world. The company has issued nearly 2.9 billion credit and debit cards and saw $7.7 trillion of payments go through its network in 2021.
