Stock Market Today

  • FTSE Shares to Buy If a Stock Market Crash Hits
    April 27, 2026, 2:45 AM EDT. With stock prices near all-time highs, Bank of England's Sarah Breeden warns of a possible market adjustment. The article highlights the strategy of buying strong FTSE stocks during downturns to exploit eventual recoveries. It stresses that no one can predict market crashes precisely, but long-term investors should seek opportunities in quality companies with strong economic moats, high margins, and solid balance sheets. Games Workshop (LSE: GAW), known for its loyal fan base and global expansion, is suggested as a buy if its stock price falls sharply. Investors are cautioned as the stock currently trades at a high price-to-earnings ratio (34), reflecting elevated expectations that could be challenged in tougher economic conditions.
