Broad market news Market getting smashed, where is cash going?

Clearly a massive sell off is happening, are traders (big and small) just sitting on cash once they sell? Gold, the bastion of safe heavens, is also getting hit.

Bonds? Simple interest? Are any sectors up in this mess?

Bonds and cds.

If you're not in a position to game the volatility, might as well collect a steady 4-5%
