Utilizing Put Options<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nInvestors can buy put options, which grant the holder the right to sell a specific stock at a predetermined price within a specified period. Put options can help protect against potential stock price declines.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Employing_Short_Selling\"><\/span>2. Employing Short Selling<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nShort selling involves borrowing shares from a broker and selling them, with the intention to repurchase them later at a lower price.

Employing Diversification<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nDiversifying your stock portfolio across various sectors, industries, or asset classes can help mitigate risk.

Going Long in Defensive Stocks<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nDefensive stocks are shares in companies that are known to be more resistant to market downturns.

Using Stop Limit Orders<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nSimilar to stop loss orders, stop limit orders trigger a trade when a stock reaches a specific price.
