Where was investors money moved to during the last market crash? How about historically?

For the smart investor, it is usually wise to move ahead of the market. Ive been trying to find websites that touch on the subject of where money has been moved to historically during a crash or bear cycle. Some of the usual suspects are Japanese stocks, European stocks, income-producing real estate, timber, raw land, and gold. It goes usually to cash and to safe havens . Lately when the market sputters alot is going into commodities as they are on a tear . Some money going to gold and silver also .

Cash or GOLD(during war time.)

I'm not sure if you're looking for places for your own money or just getting a historical perspective, but from what I've read, it's not a good idea to try to time the market. Nobody knows when the market will go up or down, and if you try to guess, you'll usually be wrong. If you react to market moves after the fact, you'll lose money because you're buying high and selling low. My favorite approach is to maintain a diversified portfolio of index funds, and make monthly investments regardless of what the market is doing. As you get closer to needing a chunk of the money (e.g. for buying a house), move the appropriate amount into more and more conservative investments. That way you'll never have to sell low, and your longer term money will have plenty of time to recover from market dips.

I've been searching too, unfortunately the one who give you the answers is either already in what they recommend (anticipating a bull market) or, well, they want to sell it to you.
So what I've been doing is trying to learn about as many different facets of investing as possible (one possible source: Invesopedia.com). Only then can one be a smarter investor.and make better decisions.
Hope that helps!

Before the Great Depression most investors,seeing the crash coming sent their money to safe havens like off shore bank accounts or Switzerland.

With the 2000-2002 crash, Investors moving to REAL ESTATE, COMMODITY, GOLD, OIL, INTERNATIONAL, SMALL CAP stock. All have the great run when blue chips, technology tanked.
