Absolutely, people are not left a choice of keeping any low risk assets and the only choice left is to choose your bucket of risk, whether investors realize the risk they are taking is a separate question(e. g. staying in cash/bonds has sizable risk in these times), everything cash, bonds, stock, RE, commodities, international investing etc are risky. I am being pushed into real assets (commodities/PM) beyond my normal risk band (from insurance levels to now survival levels) but see no choice at this point as I see that is a likely asset do do better over long term (assuming eventual efforts to revive/reflate from severe asset price declines do not catastrophically fail). I agree most folks (including me) will likely turn out to be wrong over next few years and few may survive without major dents....
