Subject: Gold Mining Shares Fri Jun 13, 2008 7:04 pm
I sold off all of my gold mining shares this week. As the gold price went down, and down, and down. Lost my butt on some of them, but from the looks of things may have saved more than that.
I wish you well, Whitake. It's so awful now, that there is no precentage in it for the juniors to go down any further. If one was looking for a contrarian play he would especially find it now. This is mucho dao contarian. As for the input side I see gold and silver being able to fatten the gross margins. I have a small position in a gold etf that is green. I have thought of buying the Deutche Bank's double long gold etf on the next price dip in August. Best of of luck.
