Market down, Housing about to pop, where to put $? [View All]

[berni_mccoy]

If the Market is way down (and not expected to come back up) and the housing market is about to pop (I saw a post on another topic here that housing starts are down 17%, the worst in 14 years as well as a story on NPR yesterday about the coming real-estate market bubble pop), then where are people putting their money (the people that have it anyway)?

Gold is up $25/oz from last year... will this continue to rise? Or will the market jump as people try to take their money out of real-estate (which I can't see happening since people have borrowed against their equity)?

Or are foreign markets (esp. Asian) the place for the next big bubble?

What are everyone's thoughts on this?
