After a record runup in stock prices amid the pandemic, stocks are starting to hit a rough patch.
The Nasdaq hit its record high on Feb.
12, but less than a month later it's trending into the red on the year.
With stocks soaring to record highs amid the economic chaos caused by the coronavirus, investors are rightly anxious that stocks could tumble back down in a hurry.

When the coronavirus began to shut the economy down in March, shares of real estate investment trusts (REITs) got hammered.
The shares of many REITs have since recovered, along with the broader stock market.
Many have called this buy-up a "real estate bubble." Truth be told, that's probably not the case right now.
But never hurts to be ready.
There are certainly a few REITs to sell now whether or not a real estate crash is in view.

Investors who bought the S&P 500 at rock-bottom this year have a whopping 65% gain to show for it.
That’s a lot for nine months.
The S&P 500’s last 65% gain took about five years, from late 2015 to early 2020.
And we know what happened in early 2020… As COVID-19 and other calamities threaten world economies, some investors fear we might be looking down the barrel of another stock market crash.
In the event of a market crash, however, we know what to do.
The name of the game is to always be prepared.
