Gold is doing fine today but what is really inflating my portfolio this morning is oil (via COSWF) and platinum (via IMPUY). I sure wish I could capture the volatility of these two stocks, but I am not going to trade them because:

1. They both pay very high dividends.

2. They allow me to participate in any crazy spikes of the general stock markets abetted by Bernake's easybucks. They are my insurance against the Zimbabwe effect in stocks.

3. They ultimately participate in very valuable and increasingly scarce commodities.
