A Safe Haven Play to Side-Step AI Anxiety

Tech valuations are high right now, and the end of the year profit taking is in full swing.

This is evident with several big tech stocks selling off yesterday.

Leading AI player Oracle (ORCL) and chipmaker Broadcom (AVGO) were each down 5 percent. Another chipmaker giant Nvidia (NVDA) was also down 3 percent.

So with AI anxiety weakening markets, I’m looking to remain light with some safe-haven plays to close out the year.

One company I’m watching is Clorox (CLX).

I like CLX because it falls under the “consumer staple” category.

Its revenue tends to be less cyclical than tech or luxury names, and its products still sell even when the markets dip.

No matter how weak the market gets, people will still buy items like bleach, trash bags and Pine-Sol.

CLX also has a long history of dividend increases.

The maker of Kleenex and Huggies has raised their dividend for 53 straight years – which could offer safety if we see any tech selling pressure.

As you’ll see in the chart above, CLX started to move up after markets fell on Wednesday.

If a Santa Claus rally doesn’t come and the markets call it a year, there’s a strong chance CLX could see another pop.

It’s why I’m watching CLX for a potential trade in The War Room this week.
