While stocks in the S&P 500 did manage to break a four-week losing streak it doesn’t mean investors are in the clear. In fact, with the stock market index still down 7.8% from its February peak and several catalysts on the way in April, the odds are that we see lower prices. Even long-term, buy-and-hold investors need an idea of where the market is heading and how to invest so I’m laying out a complete 2025 stock market playbook. I’ll show you what to watch for in signs for a stock market crash with the stocks to buy now and at specific points over the next six months.
With all that in mind, how am I investing over the next six months? I detailed the barbell strategy in February, holding half of your portfolio in the tech and growth stocks that have done so well during the bull market over the last two years. Even as the market falls, long-term it’s that tech and growth that you want to keep exposure to and want to be invested so you’ll be ready when the market rebounds. But taking advantage of lower prices means having some cash set aside and that’s where the barbell strategy shines because you’ve got the other half of your portfolio in super-safe cash, money market and bonds.
Within this strategy and over the next six months, there are some important dates and market levels I would be watching for clues. The first date is April 2nd, the day reciprocal tariffs are set to take effect and when the Trump Administration will lay out its plans. I’ll also be watching the April 4th monthly non-farm Payroll, the jobs report, which will be the first to start showing the effect of government layoffs on the labor market. The big banks will start the first quarter earnings reports on April 11th and I’m expecting companies to severely downgrade their expectations for revenue and earnings. When all the data from these three events comes through, it will be the straw that breaks this stock market and we could see fresh lows into a stock market crash. Will you be ready?
