Eva.. I just finished apologizing to my girlfriend, I mean just now... it's like 5am here in Edmonton. On Friday, I took her account to 90% cash.

Eur/usd is at 1.09 -- gold at $373 (and I'm sooooo sorry baby!)

I'm thinking there are two things on the horizon I'm not comfortable with. Hans Blix (U.N. Inspector) will give his report on Iraq, and without a "smoking gun?" And the President addresses the nation later today.

I'm not willing to discount the possibility that Saddam decides to step down today—in that event the markets would rally big time hard and gold and oil would be hammered to no end, while the U.S. dollar regains some composure. Are you willing to chance this by being invested at a 100%? I'm not. 50% in is deep enough for me, and besides aren’t we in a multiyear bull market in gold?

We'll have plenty of opportunity to make money in these markets-- and there's always the oil and gas supply situation.

...patience!

Regards,
Frank P.
