I would imagine a lot of people in Greece, Spain, Ireland, Italy and even France will be looking to move some of their cash out of the banking system tomorrow - I know I would! Realistically, what could you replace it with? Gold may rise, as may stabler stock markets (ours?) - especially defensive shares or funds, and gov. bonds maybe. I will however expect bank shares and bonds to take a hit even if by association.Edible geranium0

Might just remind investors that the problems in Europe are far from over, and companies cannot continue indefinitely selling to countries who have to borrow or print money to buy.“It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it.” --Upton Sinclair0
