  • 3 Vanguard ETFs to Safeguard Portfolios Against Stock Market Crash
    May 2, 2026, 9:04 AM EDT. Despite the S&P 500 hitting record highs, signs of economic strain are evident, including a slowing labor market, rising inflation up to 3.3% in March, and geopolitical tensions from the Iran conflict. These factors threaten a swift market downturn. High exposure to tech stocks, especially in S&P 500-based portfolios (over 30% concentration), increases risk in such environments. Vanguard offers three ETFs that may cushion portfolios in a crash: the High Dividend Yield ETF (VYM), emphasizing established, cash-generative companies; the Health Care ETF (VHT), focusing on recession-resistant healthcare firms; and the Short-Term TIPS ETF, which invests in Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities to hedge against inflation. These funds provide diversification and defensive positioning amid growing uncertainty.
