In case the selling continues, here's a way to protect yourself. [Trade of the Day Logo] [View in browser]( [Illustration of two stick figures rescuing another figure with a net]( ["Today's two bear market hedge plays offer you shelter in case the storm gets worse."]( Bryan Bottarelli, Head Trade Tactician, Monument Traders Alliance [Robert Ross] Despite the fact that the major market averages opened higher this morning... And despite the fact that General Motors (GM) just entered an agreement with the United Auto Workers union to end its strike... We cannot forget that the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq are both down more than 10% from their 2023 highs. This means that both are now in "correction" territory. Will October be the third consecutive month in the red for the major market indexes? If it is, it'll be the first time the markets have fallen for three straight months since 2020. So, as traders, we have to ask... Will things turn around? And if so... what'll be the trigger? [I Call Them "100-Percenters"]( [Marc guarantee]( "100-percenters" are dividend stocks that raise their dividends so high and so fast that they can ultimately deliver annual payouts as big as - or bigger than - the amount of cash you started with. In other words, if you had put in $1,000... you could've collected $1,000 in dividends per year. If you had put in $10,000... you would've collected $10,000 per year! [Click Here to See How It Works]( Well, this week, we have three distinct catalysts... - The Fed's rhetoric: The Federal Reserve is set to make its next interest rate decision on Wednesday. This could be a large, market-moving event. - Earnings: We have a full slate of earnings announcements this week, including Apple's (AAPL) on Thursday. Any of them could sway market sentiment. - Jobs report: October's jobs numbers are scheduled to be released this Friday. These figures always give a sense of the strength (or weakness) of the economy. Clearly, any of these items could trigger a bounce... But at the same time, they could also trigger another round of market selling pressure. Therefore, as we enter the "correction" phase of the market, it's smart to start looking at how to hedge in case the selling continues. Today, I'll offer you two of my best down-market hedge plays... - Bear Hedge #1: iPath Series B S&P 500 VIX Short-Term Futures ETN (VXX). This is a volatility hedge that is designed to move up as the S&P 500 moves down. - Bear Hedge #2: Utility plays like American Water Works (AWK) and Dominion Energy (D). In times of market uncertainty, traders tend to move into the most stable, consistent companies on Earth - including utilities. These names represent the ultimate safe haven plays.
