Hi Liju, thx for your comments! There is no absolute basis for favoring any one asset - even gold. That said, there are and will always be opportunities. In researching the German hyperinflation of the 1920's, I recall many retailers were driven to ruin, while a select few others became wealthy. I'm going to refrain from anything that might be construed as financial advice per se. Though, I think you might find other crises illuminating.
