How To Invest To Prepare For A Recession

[Yusra]

If you're thinking about investing in a recession, know that it's not as scary as it sounds. You can be prepared for a downturn by building up your savings and doing some research.

You must first create an emergency fund.An emergency fund is money you have set aside so that if something unexpected happens like a job loss or medical emergency. you're ready to go. Taking care of your finances can help you avoid debt and help you save for the future so that when the economy does slow down, your business will be able to weather it.

If you don't already have an emergency fund, start with one that's at least three months' worth of living expenses in cash or liquid assets (like stocks). Then think about how much more you could put away if there was some extra money coming in from work each month (such as side hustle income).

Once you've got some cash set aside, it's time to start researching companies that are likely to do well during a recession. This means looking at businesses that thrive on niche markets and have low overhead costs so they can pass savings onto consumers without raising prices too much like Amazon!
