No supplies are really resistant to failure. When the tokens fall, even the largest and most stable British companies can see how their share prices suffer when (some) investors go out to exits. But a few FTSE 100 Stocks may be more resistant than most, if/when the next vast drop comes.

Today I will touch three examples that cautious fools may want to consider buying in good times – probably now – in preparation for bad.

Always needed

A feature of defense companies is that they do something “necessary”. National grid (LSE: NG) It fits the bill nicely.

Regardless of what is happening in the economy, we all need access to electricity and gas. And this predictable demand has slowly appreciated the price of shares in the long term. It also means coherent dividends.

This does not mean that the latter are always development. For example, last year’s payment was “rebellious” after the network sold a whole pile of shares and placed money for the modernization of the infrastructure. At this time, shocked owners, emphasizing a point where you should never take any stream of income for something obvious.

However, the fact that the actions have been recovered since then helps to emphasize the resistance of the net. The performance is also very respectable by 4.7%, just like me.

Cracking with brands

A second defensive company that can survive the next storm better than most, is a giant of consumer goods Unilever (LSE: ULVR). After all, he owns a huge number of branded products from which people usually buy Domounts Down Horlicks Down Ben and Jerry’s.

Of course, one of the straightforward -to -risk is that the percentage of people will limit tough economic times and are looking for cheaper alternatives. This is certainly an essential problem in the compact period. But we also know that consumers usually return to previous behavior when trust is reflected.

In the long run, analysts are skeptical about Unilever’s ability to achieve their own growth goals. Remember, however, that we are interested in the strength of the company, not the ability to ensure huge capital gains. It is not another highly specific artificial intelligence plant, it may be a blessing when the markets disappear.

Unilever also assesses well when it comes to the reimbursement of growing cash amounts for the owners. The 3.3% capacity is equally and the average in the entire index.

Defensive demon

I think for even greater diversification GSK (LSE: GSK) justifies attention.

This may seem like a strange choice – the price of shares has dropped by 10% in the last 12 months. Undoubtedly, some of them are associated with the threat of Donald Trump, which is a tariff impact on pharmaceutical imports. The ongoing bars about the leadership ability to implement an ambitious drug pipeline also contributed.

But again I think that GSK attractions prevail over his problems. In addition to activities in the highly defensive sector (at some point, everyone needs healthcare, especially at the age of the population), revenues and profit are heading in the right direction in 2025. The debt has decreased roughly since 2016. There is also profitability by 4.4%.

And with commercial actions in terms of price to profit (p/e) only nine-average in the index is about half of teenagers-I believe that GSK offers a potentially spectacular value, if this stream finally has enough fruit.
