The bond market is flashing warning signs, and investors are taking notice. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/03/44211421/us-economy-teetering-recession-may-be-looming-as-bond-market-reacts-to-trump-policies">Short-term Treasury yields have dipped sharply</a> as concerns about an economic slowdown grow, and analysts warn that a Federal Reserve rate cut may be on the horizon. Historically, signals like these have preceded recessions, prompting investors to shift toward defensive assets.
For those looking to safeguard their portfolios,<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs"> ETFs that focus on stability</a> and essential industries can be a smart choice. Whether it&#8217;s low-volatility stocks, utilities, consumer staples, or government bonds, these ETFs help minimize risk while keeping your money at work. Let's explore the top options for weathering a potential downturn.
1. iShares MSCI USA Min Vol Factor ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/USMV#BATS">USMV</a>)
For investors looking to stay in the stock market but reduce risk, the iShares MSCI USA Min Vol Factor ETF is a strong pick. This ETF focuses on large- and mid-cap stocks that have historically exhibited lower volatility. It's designed to limit downside risk, making it a great choice for risk-averse investors.
USMV's portfolio includes firms from sectors like technology, financials, healthcare, and consumer staples. While this ETF helps shield investors from large losses during downturns, it also means less upside potential in booming markets. USMV has a year-to-date return of 5.5% and a 12-month return of 13.5%, proving its ability to hold up well in uncertain times. During the downturn of 2020, this ETF was able to pare the losses within a year of its 2020 peak (February 21, 2020).

2. Utilities Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLU#NYSE">XLU</a>)
The utilities sector is often a safe haven during economic downturns. The Utilities Select Sector SPDR Fund offers diversified exposure to this sector, holding 31 companies. Its top five positions make up about 39% of its portfolio.
XLU has a low expense ratio of 0.09% and provides a dividend yield of 2.8% as of 2025. Since utility services like electricity and water remain in demand regardless of economic conditions, this ETF is a solid defensive choice. Over the past year, the ETF has delivered a 21.71% return.
3. Vanguard Consumer Staples ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VDC#NYSE">VDC</a>)
Consumer staples companies produce essential goods like food, beverages, and household products, which people buy regardless of the economic climate. The Vanguard Consumer Staples ETF offers exposure to this sector, holding 103 stocks while balancing exposure to industry giants like Coca-Cola (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KO#NYSE">KO</a>) and Costco Wholesale Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COST#NASDAQ">COST</a>).
With an expense ratio of just 0.09%, VDC is an affordable way to invest in recession-resistant stocks. While consumer staples ETFs tend to be top-heavy, VDC provides a well-rounded mix of large and mid-sized companies.
The Market Signals You Should Watch
While defensive ETFs can help protect your portfolio, it's also important to understand why recession concerns are growing.
Investors have been moving into short-dated Treasuries, signaling concerns about an economic slowdown. Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-03-09/the-bond-market-s-trump-trade-is-looking-like-a-recession-trade?srnd=homepage-americas&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">reports </a>that the Federal Reserve may start cutting interest rates as early as May to counteract slowing growth.
The inverted yield curve, where short-term bond yields exceed long-term yields, flashed warning signs in February, as the spread between three-month treasury yields and those of 10-year notes inverted last week. Historically, this has been a strong predictor of a recession knocking at the door. The curve had inverted in 2019, right before the economic downturn in 2020, according to Reuters.
Meanwhile, indicators such as the CNN Fear &amp; Greed Index <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2025/03/10/investing/us-stocks-drop-after-trump-says-he-wont-rule-out-a-recession/index.html">dropping </a>into &#8220;Extreme Fear&#8221; territory and the Cboe Volatility Index (VIX) <a href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/markets/vix-surge-above-25-implies-above-average-but-far-from-perilous-recession-risk/ar-AA1ACR21?ocid=finance-verthp-feeds">spiking </a>to more than 25 reflect heightened investor anxiety.
Even Warren Buffett seems cautious, as Berkshire Hathaway is<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44212672/jamie-dimon-cashed-out-234-million-in-jpmorgan-stock-warren-buffett-stockpiled-334-billion-in-cash-weeks-later-markets-crashed-coincidence"> sitting on record cash reserves</a> while trimming long-held positions.
Final Thoughts: Stay Prepared
Preparing your portfolio in advance rather than reacting at the last minute can help mitigate potential losses during economic downturns. Incorporating low-volatility equity ETFs, utility, and consumer staples funds can provide a more resilient foundation.

With growing concern over macroeconomic items like tariffs, Roundhill Investments highlights the potential for a correction and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/market-summary/25/03/44227856/nasdaq-sp-500-hit-6-month-lows-as-recession-fears-grow-whats-driving-markets-monday">a bear market.</a>
What Happened: After optimism for the stock market following Donald Trump's victory in the 2024 presidential election, investors are cautious with fears of<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/market-summary/25/03/44216011/us-stocks-likely-to-open-lower-after-trump-hints-at-looming-recession-expert-says-cant-rule-out-a-bear-market-as-indices-inch-towards-correction-territory"> a recession growing.</a>
Trump's recent comments on "a period of transition" and the continued overhang of tariffs on countries like Canada, Mexico and China leading to higher prices for American consumers could be sparking the fears.
A weekly <a href="https://blog.roundhillinvestments.com/roundhill-roundup-march-2025">newsletter </a>from ETF company Roundhill Investments covered the potential of a recession and also how Trump is viewed for the markets. Roundhill CEO Dave Mazza and Roundhill ETF strategist Thomas DiFazio covered the Trump trade and current macroeconomic concerns in a series of charts and thoughts.
"As we march through 2025, the U.S. economy is a mixed bag of solid realized growth coupled with lurking dangers following years of relative calm," the newsletter reads.
The newsletter hits on the recent Trump comments about potential short-term setbacks to achieve long-term goals, much to the potential dismay of investors.
"While the broader market has not yet experienced a correction, let alone a bear market, investors did not seem to appreciate how quickly the ‘Trump bump' would turn to the ‘Trump slump', especially for previous high-flying names."
Dark clouds on the horizon include tariffs and a reacceleration of inflation the report said.
"Mentions of tariffs and trade wars are surging in both company transcripts and news publications to the highest levels on record."

Why It's Important: Mazza and DiFazio said uncertainty around tariffs and economic growth are elevated, but there are still some positives. "On balance, the U.S. economy does not appear to be in major trouble quite yet."
Items like a strong job market, the Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index in expansionary territory and the S&amp;P 500 having +17% year-over-year earnings growth in the fourth quarter are positives mentioned.
The report said soft data points like sentiment and confidence are showing lows, while hard data like earnings, GDP, unemployment and retail sales are showing stability for the economy.
"The U.S. economy expanded by 2.8% in 2024, following a 2.9% growth in 2023. While sticky, inflation has decreased from 9.0% year-over-year increases in 2022 to 3.0% today."
Mazza and DiFazio write that the Federal Reserve is now "caught between a rock and a hard place," as they wrestle with inflation fears.
"Walking the fine line between supporting economic growth and reigning in inflation ties the Fed's hands in adjusting interest rates, preventing them from cutting to the extent previously forecasted."
The report noted that a prolonged slowdown in the economy could weigh on profit growth, often a barometer of strength for stocks.
"While the U.S. economy flashes some green lights with solid growth and a resilient labor market, the red flags of escalating tariffs and relentless inflation can't be ignored."
SPY Price Action: The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), which tracks the S&amp;P 500 Index, serves as one of the top barometers of the stock markets and economy. The ETF is down 2.7% on Monday to $560.55 versus a 52-week trading range of $493.86 to $613.23.
The ETF is down 4.1% year-to-date in 2025 and up 9.6% over the last year. The ETF closed at $597.58 on Jan. 17, President Joe Biden's last day in office. Shares are down 6.2% since that date.
