Hello Pezz, Today's Report: (a) I took advantage of a chilling quiet and Starbucks Frappuccino moment on this Saturday AM in HK and sold down my paper certificate gold holdings to the last brave tranche.
I may simply abandon position altogether before the 12:00 noon when the internet-enabled gold window closes for the weekend, or I may just leave well enough alone and be content with the underserved gains already realized.
The physical hoard still lay lazily down in some basement, waiting for their day of calling.
(b) I recognize a richly deserved gain off of this trade Message 21146916 <<shorted a tranche of Cameco September Puts strike 45 @ USD 4.30/shr>> ... it turned out that my original read <<I figured that there is no philosophical difference between Newmont and Cameco>> was spot on :0)
... and now, I get to do it again :0), then once more, in and out, and the ATM, always faithful, the moolah, forever accessible, option period after option period, .... the world is indeed a wonderful place, so full of conundrums that are not, and messes that are worldmarket.blogspot.com
Looking back on my education, expensively paid for at the time, heart aches and moolah and scary moments, I am not certain that it was at all necessary, the electrical wave equations, quantum well ponderings, antenna theories, coding algorithms, option pricing formulae, discounted cash flow, balancing of the T accounts, and everything else that wasn't much fun.
The parts that are really useful may simply be the good bits, weekly allowance training, the Monopoly and Risk games, poker nights, date nights, happy hours, comparative literature, theatre arts, Hotel School wine tasting and gourmet cooking classes, cross country zig and zag, chasing girl across meadows while having wine jug strapped to belt, in a haze of grape juice.
