Given the extreme instability of the stock market, especially amid the COVID-19 pandemic, you really can’t predict for sure when exactly a crash would happen. It could be forthcoming, or still a few months and years down the line. Generally, the stock market has experienced at least a 10% drop every 23 months in the past 70 years. Despite the inevitability of a stock market crash, Motley Fool analyst Edward Ruger says that buying and holding great stocks for a significant time period could give you growth. To validate this view, he points out that the S&P 500 has averaged 10% per year in the past century. Let’s see what other strong stocks Sean Williams, Motley Fool contributor, considers worthwhile to purchase during a stock market crash. •
A Telemedicine Stock (Teladoc ($TDOC)): Health is very important and irrespective of economic downturns, holding onto healthcare stocks may be worthwhile during a crash. One of the greatest advantages of the healthcare industry is that the demand for its products and services remains unaffected despite economic crises that could affect other industries. It is the way of the future, which facilitates patients to get their examinations, diagnoses and treatments all from the comfort of their homes. If you are considering buying a stock in telemedicine, consider the telemedicine company Teladoc which belongs to the healthcare sector. The company has particularly seen a significant rise in virtual health visits, especially during this pandemic.

A telecommunication Stock (AT&T): The telecommunications industry that offers the service of communication is something that is critical in times if all crisis. As AT&T is a telecom stock that has its business model based on subscriptions, it may be favorable amidst a market crash. Also, as this telecommunication stock is moving to 5G networks, it could generate a tech upgrade cycle lasting for many years that would raise the demand for AT&T’s data component that typically offers high margins.

Credit Card Stock: During the pandemic, online retail has increased in demand, and card payment has become one of the preferred modes of payment. Therefore, if the stock market crashes, Visa is a great stock to consider buying. Moreover, during the economic recession of 2009, Visa only experienced a single year-on-year decline. From 2009 to 2018, the company saw its share of the US credit card market skyrocket in terms of purchase volume by over 9% to touch 53%.
