the market will crash with a stronger dollar not weak one ...some things will go up in price; some things will go down. A creamed dollar propels stocks upward ... generally Of course there is a point at which both could crash, but -- if they did and you were short you'd have more money than if you just held the dollars. I don't understand your post? Are you saying PMs are the only game in town??

Things could certainly work out that way. "Hard currency" like gold and other commodities is the usual answer, but value is in some portion utility, so for example, pallets and pallets of ammunition could be both useful and negotiable ;-) It may be a good time to make a list of your neighbors sorted by estimated age and weight. Beyond meat on the hoof, the fatter ones can be rendered for soap, candles, lamp oil, and so on. Think of it as an opportunity for a rustic revival of a more traditional lifestyle and values, you can turn it into months of fun for the entire family before you all succumb.
