Agreed..

Healthcare, food, utilities seem to be safe havens.

Earlier this year it was the energy sector for me as most of the oil/ng stocks trade on the NYSE. Had to wait a few days or in some cases weeks to get my exit points. Its difficult for a trader to be conservative but I have always held a conservative stock or two in the background to keep me sane. Have MO and NEM currently. See the Euro moving off its bottom. Bought NEM in the 13's on a panic selling day in the metal sector. Have held since.

Most of the real good stuff on the DOW is tradin at a 20 PE..so the downside is pretty limited

12 month trailing on the 30 DOW stocks is around 27 PE.
With the recent warnings of some of the components and expected warnings in the future, that PE will go up at current levels.

In full blown bear, I think we could see the DOW cut in half.
In 1974, I believe the DOW was trading at 12-15 PE.
