your best bet is to invest in Fixed Income, primarily government issued bonds, or just stick your money into a CD> However even if you are investing into something and it is going down i value you are still owning more shares, so when it finally goes up you will make more money |

during a recession health care and staples do well. Coming out of a recession utilities do well. Read article to get a better understanding.
Right now i think trading is better than investing.

Treasuries. These are tables of historical yields. |

There has not appeared to be any safe investments lately. If you want safety, you had better stick to CDs. |

It depends on your time frame. Stocks go down and stocks go up. You actually might want to look at property and stocks while they are low. In five to 10 years when they are back up, it would be time to sell. You can just forget about the quick buck in this market unless you short. |

Nothing is safe. Stick with your bank CDs or high yield savings accounts. Anyone who isn't losing money is making money.

CDs or savings that are federally insured... in other words cash is king when times are bad. Notice gas, gold and other commodities are going down in price? Best to keep your money in liquid holdings only. |

stock certificates always look the same no matter how much they're worth.. |

look for companies with lots of cash and/or little debt, good prospects for the future, and preferably paying good dividends (there are still stocks paying good dividends if you do a Yahoo or Google search for them) |
