I have never seen an "invesment" firm or advisor who is anything other than a commission salesman advising you to take long investment positions. If the bulk of your liquidity is in dollar instruments, buy <a href="http://www.tulving.com/goldbull.html#silver">US pre=1965 "junk" silver bags of coins, 715 ounces per $1000 face value</a> whenever "spot" silver bullion prices are under <a href="http://www.kitco.com/">$14.00/oz</a> if you have a secure place to store it.
If you get nervous, buy some of these put options to hedge:

...and reading everything that is posted <a href="http://boards.prudentbear.com/">here</a> , because I think that finally, it is their "time".
