The San Francisco Chronicle asks, "What are the best places to stash your cash?" The article answers, "Surviving a panic like the one that started 10 years ago -- when Lehman Bros. went under and nearly took the financial system with it -- requires courage, patience, and a comfortable cushion of cash. 'Having that cash cushion allows you to ride out a financial storm, like having a few days of canned goods helps you live out a physical storm,' said Peter Crane of Crane Data, which tracks money market funds." We quote from this article, and also review ICI's latest Money Market Fund Holdings summary, below.
