Well I have to say that I think yesterdays nice day was just a bounce.I'm in the camp with most people(Peter,Klaus etc.) who are expecting a decline especially in the US.No crystal ball,no active ulcer in the stomach.Just don't buy the recovery claims south of the border.With all the turmoil around the world as well.Things will slow globally for a while.That seems inevitable.The US recovery(if its even that) is too fragile to handle any hiccups.I've been slowly selling most holdings.Keeping my golds(added smf again recently and loving it) and certain specific junior plays(sgc and don of course).Did also add some down side protection during the past couple of weeks in the way of puts on the qqqq.Agree with you Klaus that selling of options is the best way to go.Taking in those premiums is great income but at times like these(if I'm right), a little put can go a long way.Thats my take on things anyway.Cheers everyone.
