Not shorting gold shares ...but buying puts.

Very different risk reward.

Nasty time decay erodes profits.

But a negative geopolitical event will result in loss of put value only, not major damage to portfolio like shorting could...

Haven't done it yet - just thinking about it...

Recovery will come from business side & Federal government, not consumer.

Recovery may be mild at first ...copper price seems stalled for right now.
