This week was marked by heighted volatility, especially due to rise in the number of coronavirus cases across the globe. The rising pandemic fears sent the global stock markets in doldrums, pushing the major indices around the world in correction territory (a fall of 10% or more from the recent peak). Notably, the S&P 500 saw the fastest correction in history with six consecutive days of decline after hitting new record highs last week.

The rapidly spreading virus has resulted in more than 2,800 deaths and has infected about 83,000 worldwide. This has sparked concerns about its long-term economic impact on trade, ports, supply chains and consumer confidence. In particular, a growing number of companies have warned that the epidemic will prevent them from meeting sales or profit targets for the first three months of the year. As such, the outbreak will likely derail global economic growth and corporate profits (read: Go Defensive With These ETFs as Stock Rout May Worsen).

Per International Monetary Fund, the outbreak could reduce global economic growth by 0.1% this year. Goldman now expects zero growth in profits in 2020, citing reduced economic activity in China and the United States, reduced demand for American exports, supply chain disruptions and increased uncertainty. Market sentiments got even worse after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warned that the outbreak “might be bad,” and that Americans should prepare for the possibility of disruptions.

Amid the virus scare, there are still winners in many corners of the market that are easily surviving the slump. Below we have highlighted six ETFs from different corners of the market that have traded in the green over the past week and are likely to continue doing so should the trends prevail.
