Sim,
I am also into capital preservation mode.
Short term I am cautious and will only be buying oversold companies.
Long term I'm not sure. The next 6 months are critical IMO. The clouds should clear by then and should be showing me the direction I should take.
Generally I'd be going for resource stocks but I see that world economies are now hurting due to high petrol prices and people are tightening up their belts. So I am thinking that after the Olympics China could slow down and our resourse stocks could take another hit.
Also, we could have a war with Iran and this could make stock markets come down further. Interesting times...
Cheers
