You can hedge anything. The more common hedging instruments are (1) interest rate hedges, (2) commodity price hedges and (3) foreign exchange rate hedges. These instruments may hedge the risk of volatility of either cash flows or fair value.

1. you can purchase a put on your holdings.
2. you can short an index fund as a hedge against your porfolio.
3. you can sell a naked call against your holdings. That offers some downside protection.
4. you can short technically weak stocks against your strong holdings. If there is a market drop the weak stocks will drop more than your technically strong stocks. If the market rises, technically strong stocks will rise more rapidly.
