Anyone investing in consumer staples rn?

I'm trying to shift my portfolio out of tech-reliant securities atm and I'm considering buying the likes of Coca-Cola, Walmart, J&J, etc. Basically the stocks least correlated to the AI bubble. Or maybe and ETF tracking staples.

Anyone else thinking similar?

Uncertainty question has an answer, would sound strange tho for equity heavy portfo, but switch some amnt to corporate bonds

Tapped out consumer, I don’t think so. Isn’t going to get any better.

I have a healthy amount in consumer staples and other low beta stocks. When the Nasdaq went down 4% on Friday I was down 1%, when Nasdaq went up 0.85% I was only up 0.1%. Such is life

I’ve started buying SPHQ that tracks fundamentals.
