Some sectors always do better in a correction of course. There's usually a flight to quality in defensives like consumer staples. Australia companies that get their profits in $US would be weakened, especially if they were growth companies relying on low interest rates. So, in theory, it should be a case by case basis but the markets work in mysterious ways. If the world starts caving in led by the US, then gold should go ok, but maybe only in comparison to other sectors. Safest place for your money would be in the 'Buykennasayacht Diversified Super Fund' which is highly recommended by Lonsec and gets five starts from Morningstar.new girl said:Come on, may be just a tiny attack where no one gets hurtdo you think that a weakening $US will balance a moderate correction or is this a stupid way of looking at it?
