“Sure you do Gordon Ghecko. LOL”

If you actually knew what you were talking about, you’d laugh at your own statement. My statement below is the anti GGhecko, bagholder. You see, the people who think they can call a top or bottom and hold on with their instincts almost always lose. Emotion and opinion can’t win in the long run...the market is always right. Investors who hang on for a small ride, never get crunched in half like rookies like you.

‘Have fun...I buy and sell in the middle long and short...you have fun trying to guess the bottoms and tops rookie.’

Good luck timing that out on gold.

Some people do well timing commodity markets and I say more power to 'em.  I don't, and over time gold just hasn't done all that well compared to other more stable investments.    Let's say $100 is invested in 1950.   With gold it's worth almost $4,000 but with stocks it's over $52,000.

Actually "jr", I do know exactly what I'm talking about. And I did get in at the bottom. I haven't sold anything yet and it's been a hell of a decade thank you very much. I will start scaling out of my position around DOW:GOLD 1-3.
