Do you believe that there is a place to hide in the stock market? If there were, I wouldn't be expecting many people on this thread to find it with stocks that are now at highs. Are you sure you've got the right thread? On a different thread, other people might have a different opinion, i.e. I guess anything with O'Neil and his methods (buy rising stocks as the rise proves itself). If you like the business of propane, perhaps utility UGI. It seemed to have got through '08-'09 debacle with less volatility, perhaps more safety than the propane lp's. Not as much distribution/dividend yield; Otoh, if the market falls and if these propane companies fall again with it, UGI might fall less than others. Thus, as I look at it, UGI's more of a place to hide than the propane lp's. (There'll be no good place to hide in stocks in a market downturn though, would be my guess, from what I experienced in the market downturn of '08-'09.) finance.yahoo.com
