  • Three Vanguard ETFs to Weather a 2026 Recession
    January 17, 2026, 5:33 PM EST. The article argues a recession could loom in 2026 even as benchmarks push higher. An MDRT December 2025 survey found about 80% of Americans worry about a downturn. It urges investors to stay invested and use ETFs to temper risk. The piece centers on three Vanguard funds. First, the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO) tracks the S&P 500, about 500 large-cap stocks, with a long record of weathering recessions. Capital Group data show the index has produced positive total returns in every 10-year stretch over the last 82 years. Holding VOO for a decade can damp volatility. The second is the Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (VTI), spanning the entire US equity market with thousands of stocks for broad diversification. A third Vanguard fund rounds out the lineup.
