"In times of market turmoil, it’s understandable and perhaps more immediately obvious that companies in the other two major segments highlighted earlier – namely information services and consumer staples – should perform relatively well. RELX PLC (NYSE:RELX) and LSEG provide a vast array of essential data and analytical tools, including everything from academic journals to electronic bond trading platforms, or legal software to financial indices, to an equally wide range of end users, who rely entirely on these products to support their daily workflows. As a result, both companies enjoy majority subscription revenues, high margins, and strong pricing power, allowing them to weather challenging economic environments."
