At times of uncertainity one should care about preserving capital rather than trying to profit - the chances of you losing a big chunk of capital is much higher than making a profit. Keep it in liquid cash. Maybe buy some canned goods, matches and some easy to use fuel materials. -

Other than that there isn't a lot of value around at the moment, although I'll start buying if the FTSE falls below 5300.Comment
