I recently moved a decent chunk of money to municipal bonds. Is it guaranteed to be safe? No. But it's a good way to wait out chaos. If cities can't pay their debts the market is in really bad shape, but not necessarily vice versa. And it avoids the "everyone sees the economy is about to crash" premium that you're currently paying for precious metals.
