The 1987 crash - could it happen again?

For me this time is not different but it is better be cautious than regret later. I have experience with finance companies how they went to receiverships. Best places to put money now are outstanding companies with long term business model, defensive areas and value opportunities. Do you think so? Thanks.

It's different every time, so no, we won't see a repeat of 1987. But given that there's some sort of crisis every ten years or so, it's tempting to speculate what it'll be this time

WW3 would probably fit the bill.

US investors are running out of cash -- and that's terrible news for the stock market

There's a lot of uncertainty at the moment, and I'm not entirely sure what the right move to make is.
Asset prices are at extraordinarily high levels, NZ house prices are some of the highest in the world (in relation to local incomes) having seen near vertical gains in recent years. The new government's policies, in my opinion, are highly inflationary, the NZD is already reacting accordingly against most major currency pairs. Even overseas markets appear to be developing cracks (US, China, Australian financial sector)..
Do I keep my money in cash and have it devalue? Do I put it into stocks and risk losing a significant amount when the 'mother of all bubbles' bursts? Do i put it into bonds/term deposits and lock in those really low returns of around 3-4% per annum?
Who knows. Things were much easier when all I had to decide was what to watch on TV.
