I added VGPMX yesterday. Now I just need to keep an eye out for any troublesome kids considering unionizing.

Thoughts on GOLY?

The leveraged funds, NUGT and GDXU. Anyone play these? Can you hold them more than a day?
Also, frick Vanguard for not letting you buy just about any gold or silver funds/etfs.

It's crazy watching how strong the price of Au has been the last two years. It's one of the only things that the world really trusts.

The price of the element is at that point: Miners are going to be crazy profitable.
Look for the strongest companies, but also have a peripheral on the up and comers.
GDXJ is the safe "speculative" stock play.
Personally? I like snagging the real thing. Silver & Gold bullion that I can hold in my hand. Though, it's not a quick trade on this route.

I’ve switched from ITM GLD calls to shares and I’m starting to add $40 SLV calls for January/March.

quote:It’s such bullshite when Schwab pops the little message that “buying commodities carries extra risk”. Meanwhile, gold’s sharpe ratio is ungodly the last couple years. GLD/IBIT/QQQ and some cash and you’re wrecking every hedge fund out there. And all the financial institutions absolutely hate it.

With rates looking to come down I refreshed myself on Sprott’s metal Trusts. CEF is is Gold/Silver mix fund an PHYS is gold only. Both are available on Fidelity.
Both have also exploded this year. I’m thinking of moving some of my cash/MM into CEF to offset reduced MM returns. Even with the run up if they start cutting rates I don’t think it’s too late.
The only problem is if we hit a recession metals are highly correlated to the markets at least initially so need to stay frosty with stops.

Do you not think they will decouple with the large inflation risk and all the smoke around the reset to gold back dollar?
In general, what is everyone's thought on all the talk about going gold back? Russia recently came out with some interesting accusations.

There’s no way to tell. When everything starts sellling…EVERYTHING starts selling. Stocks, gold, commercial bonds, etc. At least that’s been my experience through 2001, 2008, etc. and it taught me that diversification is really tough in a panic sell off.
The only asset I’ve seen that is less correlated to a crash is TLT or govt treasuries as there is a flight to safety. Go back test different assets during 2008 and you’ll see it.
Next time? Who knows?

It would seem that the value of gold against the dollar, in a falling US economy, would be somewhat buffered by what is happening with gold sentiment in India and China, where 38% of the planet's population lives.

It does decouple after the initial sell off.
But check the charts yourself - I’m just a guy that learned real quick that the bond allocation and other assets all get blasted if it’s a bad market sell off. I’ve never experienced stagflation though.

Are GLD and PHYS roughly the same? Both holding physical gold?

IMO it's very straightforward. If the US wishes to preserve King Dollar as the world's reserve currency, we must improve the "faith and creditworthiness" of the US Treasury.
Two ways to do that .... either we repay our massive Debt and return to fiscal responsibility, .... or we secure the Dollar with hard assets.
