So everybody is bearish and loves gold. Last couple of days I increased portfolio stocks from 2% to 17%. Portfolio is now: Stocks 17% -- AMAT CIM DOW FSC GLW GE MHR MSFT STX SVU T WHR CTEL TEF TOT Bonds 17% -- Muni CEFs: AFB MFL NEA NXR NZF PIA Pfd stk: GSTPRA Cash & cash equivalents tips: 58% -- mm funds, CDs, ibonds, TIPS, muni cef pfds, GLDPRB Gold & Palladium -- 8% I bought CTEL, the Hong Kong internet provider. Do you have an opinion? PS. I bought all the gold and palladium in the portfolio between 2001 and 2005 strictly as an insurance policy. In 2005 it was around 4% of the portfolio. It has now grown to 8% because the rest of the portfolio did not grow as fast as gold. Since my current gold/PM allocation is sufficient as insurance, I have no intention to add or subtract from it. It has remained unchanged for the last 6 years.
