I believe your professor is throwing your class a curve ball. He's trying to see who is the best at protecting capital. Do yourself a favor and invest in things that appreciate on a defensive basis against stock markets going down. Bonds, Precious Metals, etc. There are also stocks you may research that hold value better in a crash than other companies. Companies like this include McDonalds and Starbucks. You can thank me later.

Interesting. So my best bet would be to try to protect the money from further loss, assuming that most companies wont go up? ie:AAPL
Why would someplace such as McDonalds or Starbucks increase when everyone else is decreasing? |
Because there services are needed no matter what the state of the economy is
