ParticipantRegardless of “the big one” happening I believe health care is a good bet. You’ll be treating the injured in addition to keeping baby boomers alive, they’re the ones with all the money so you know health care is growing for sure. I expect huge medical advances in the next 20 years.
Johnson and Johnson is a great co. JNJ
Check out the Down Jones health care index for more companies.The downside of health care is the potential for increased government regulation and/or socialization of health care. I don’t want to get into a Michael Moore type debate about it but any time the government intervenes it usually means a hit to stock prices initially.

ParticipantI heard of this guy once who bought up a bunch of land in Arizona and Nevada in advance of a potential quake.
He had big development plans. Part of which depended on the land being ocean front property in the future.
He had planned to split apart the San Andreas fault-line using Nuclear armaments – the resulting explosion destined to send the entire Californian coastline and its inhabitants to murky ocean depths.The problem is that these California inhabitants were likely the most lucrative of future customers. Once his accountant ran the numbers he had to save face, so he told his assistant to release Superman at the last possible moment to allow him to save California and foil the plan.
… Or something like that.
I think your best bet is to invest in Kryptonite futures.

ParticipantWas that Lex Luther? I heard he’s going to be the new fund manager of Blackstone.
One of 007’s nemesisessssses (nemisees?) also planned to cause earthquakes I believe (the dude who ejected an unwilling investor from a glass-bottom blimp if I recall correctly). You may want to check in with him! 🙂

Yes, it was Lex. It’s too bad he is going to the dark side and working for Blackstone. He’ll probably do more harm there than in his old job.

ParticipantI have no advice on stocks that make money on earthquakes. Honestly, the investment strategy behind that question sucks. If Big Earthquake is the market shock (financially & literally!) you plan to profit from, the problem is you cannot predict when it will happen, not even within +/- 10-year accuracy.
OK, you want some GOOD advice on earthquakes?
An earthquake alarm for $23. And this thing is very well reviewed by seismologists.
After I stopped laughing at the apparent ridiculousness of an “earthquake alarm” … I started to think, “Hey maybe this isn’t such a crazy idea, and maybe this product IS worth $23 price if there’s a chance it may save your life!”
http://www.earthquakestore.com/earthquake-alarms.php
That first website has best price on this product. That second website has detailed description of the product. I ordered a couple of these after doing the engineering-geek thing of spending a half-day last weekend researching earthquake sensor alarms. This is a nifty little product and you simply stick on the wall of your bedroom and align it. Then you set the sensitivity.
It works on the principle of detecting the “P” wave (compression wave) of an earthquake, which travel about 1.7 times faster than the more destructive “S” wave (shear wave). If the Big One hits at night while we sleep, we don’t want to wake up when the house is falling on us; hopefully we are woken up (by alarm) 10 or 20 seconds before, and have a chance get out of the house.
Alternatively, there is this product, MUCH higher priced:

Admit it. You should order a couple of these today. No I don’t have any relationship with the company that sells these. I’m just sharing advice that could save your life.
