Seriously--Gold? I too was thinking of some gold, but you know, cash is better. Gold mining is a sick industry, I've changed my mind on it, oh, if gold plunged below $200 I might buy some coins or something, but tearing up the environment to do something that doesn't do anybody any good, not for me anymore. I've dabbled in gold and done okay in the past, but walking away from the idea alltogether. By the way, wife's acct and my own blew through the targets for the year today, now what? Have raised cash, bought a little more cnsi, snagged a batch of glia and a few March calls-- bottomfishing the VD model portfolio's one stinker I guess! I'm not going to give up things just because my gain for the year has been met. The wife is going to hang on to TGEN as an investment, all paid for and all that. Genset has a mental stop loss at my old target, which it blew thru yesterday. I swapped her Axys for some snap, but I still own plety of axph for the H&Q presentation on Wednesday. It's really been a lot of fun, even my little Magainin, which is one of those sentimental long term investments anyway (so cant trade it away) has nearly doubled in the past month. This biotech thrill ride may continue, but a little cash in the account cant hurt.
