Healthcare, consumer staples and utilities are considered to be defensive stocks because they are always needed regardless of economic situation.

I am minimising my exposure to US stock market as well. There is the perception that the European stock market doesn't have the explosive growth the way that US stocks does but it is at least safer.

Japan could also be considered safe and their stock market have been on the rise after 30 years of stagnation.
