AllianceBernstein (AB) is a global asset manager with a consistent, large dividend yield (~7%+). High dividend payers provide steady income during a crash, reducing need to sell shares at depressed prices. AB serves as a defensive income play, though itself is not immune to market volatility. Dividend cuts possible if AUM falls sharply; correlation to equity markets remains high.

Berkshire Hathaway holds ~$340B cash; historically buys back shares during market downturns, unlike tech firms with high capex. This cash fortress allows BRK to deploy capital at distressed valuations while providing downside resilience, making it a natural hedge in a tech-led crash. BRK.B is positioned to outperform in a broad sell-off due to cash liquidity and value-oriented holdings. If the sell-off is systemic (not sector-specific), BRK’s equity portfolio (e.g., Apple, Bank of America) could still decline meaningfully.

Chubb (CB) is a leading property & casualty insurer; insurance premiums are less correlated to tech cycles. In a crash, insurance holdings often provide stability due to underwriting discipline and float income. CB can act as a portfolio ballast, benefiting from rate hikes and low sensitivity to AI hype. Catastrophe losses or negative reserve development could weigh on earnings regardless of macro.

McDonald’s is a global consumer staple with recurring royalty and rental income from franchisees. Consumer defensive names like MCD maintain sales even during economic contraction; their real estate model adds asset backing. MCD’s predictable cash flows and dividend growth make it a staple for a safety portfolio. Input cost inflation or wage pressures could compress margins; a deep recession may reduce traffic.

UnitedHealth Group is a defensive healthcare insurer with recurring revenue and limited AI/tech exposure. Healthcare demand is inelastic; UNH’s cash flows are relatively stable even during recessions, providing resilience. UNH offers a non-cyclical earnings base that can hold up better than tech during an AI unwind. Regulatory risk (Medicare/Medicaid policy changes) and potential impact of AI on healthcare efficiency could alter margins.
