I was thinking the same thing.
When I felt Obama was going to beat McCain in early October “08”, took 1/3 of my investments and put it in gold which eventually doubled. Maybe it’s time to reinvest that back into my old stocks, or at least something less shaky then gold will be come next year.
Anyway, I will take that into consideration in the next few Months.
Sure, long term investing will be a good thing to do as the economy turns around, but I think many stocks are a good deal now and worth at least a little investment (as long as Romney keeps his lead).
