14. Treasury bonds
At least one of the many articles I've read over the last week claimed that as bad as things are here, they're worse in much of the rest of the world -- so that US Treasury bonds are still seen as a safe haven and will continue to be bought up.

I have no idea if that's true -- and at best, it just kicks the problem on down the road. But it does suggest there will at least be funding for the stimulus program in the short run.
