Baltimore – (TFN): With the recent market collapse, the subsequent U.S. Federal Reserve-negotiated sale of The Bear Stearns Cos. Inc. (BSC: NYSE), and a central bank that’s socializing trillions of dollars in debt in a misguided attempt to "fix" the credit crisis, many investors are very astutely asking: How much worse could this get?
My answer: A lot.
Right now the big concern is whether a potential new financial crisis in Great Britain - spawned by the "St. Patrick’s Day Massacre" - will make the jump across the ocean and infect the U.S. financial markets. Fortunately for us, there are steps investors can take right now to position themselves for profit - and protect themselves from infection should this U.K.-generated contagion reach our shores.
