Where’s it going to run? That’s been the catch, or the saving grace for the US several times since 2007. Precious metals? Holding paper is suspect, physical is difficult, and it’s already had a huge runup. Real estate is a safe haven historically but that’s the original bubble that set the whole conflagration off in the first place, it’s still deflating.

"Wheres it going to run?"Germany was the place along with UK. Now Deutschland is suffering the contagion.
Switzerland is too small and already has capital controls (pegged to the teurdo).
Japan was a haven that had to intervene to protect the yen (to no avail).
Australia? Canada? Too small.
China? They don't call it Communist China for nothing. The yawn is not even convertible.
How about the ruble, er rubble, nuff said.
U.S.A.? Always the haven with unlimited supply, political safety and ....................... liquidity!!

Back to necessities (commodities) and productive countries. Planners and building inspectors, for two examples of many, probably won't present much in the way of profits or useful products over the next decade or two.

Agreed on that, and it's going to deflate for a long time.
