US Treasuries, CDs and MM Instruments will not become popular until the stock market crashes. This is because of the capital flight induced by a shrinking dollar value. If, before the crash, investors move to fixed income securities, the rate of interest would go down which will push up asset prices or at least hold them steady. These kinds of moves from equities to fixed income securities have kept the US stock market alive and well for a long time. I do not see it happen this time. I am not suggesting a chase for the next "hot" market. I am simply trying to fathom how the panic may ensue.
