What to buy ahead of the Fed: 5 trades

The "Fast Money" traders re-evaluated their investment strategies on Friday as the major indexes saw their worst day since June 24.

The sell-off followed increased concern about the possibility of the Federal Reserve raising the benchmark federal funds rate.

Trader Steve Grasso said that investors who believe the Fed will hike should "buy the market" a couple of days ahead of the Sept. 20 and 21 meeting. Grasso said that he would probably get back into the retailers and banks.

Trader David Seaburg said companies like TJX and Lululemon look attractive because they did not have "horrible" earnings, yet the stocks got pummeled anyways.

Trader Guy Adami said he's still bullish on the bond market and gold.
