"Kaplan added that he believes the surge in the commodities market is a bubble that will eventually deflate"
Kaplan is an idiot. There is no bubble in gold commodities. Too few investors in this market.
I have 10% of my portfolio invested in gold and it's returned 200% since I bought in 2000. I expect to double that investment in the next two years and then triple or quadruple it by 2010.
When I hear that the shoeshine boy on the corner is buying gold stock, then I'll know we've hit a bubble and I'll sell.
