>>yeah well i don't think you or most others on these boards are good enough stock pickers to find the 2 or 3 out of 10 that will outperform<< this is precisely why i'm not doing any buying right now. i want to sort out the best picks AFTER they've been shot and god is already done sorting 'em ;-)

yeah well i don't think you are good enough of a commodity trader to find the 2 or 3 out of dozens of commodities that will outperform. Most will remian stagnant. The last several years many gullible people were convinced by commodities trader hucksters that they could makes millions incommodities with a few hundred bucks. Craig I don't know if you think that, but you sure talk that way. And yet you never seem to trade anything ! The point is, if the majority of stocks are going to do well over the next 10 years and the majority of comodities are going to perform poorly, it seems to me that the best strategy is to focus on the asset class where one has the greatest chance for success - stocks. Oh well, you've already explained to us ad nuseum how much you like to talk and inform people of how wrong they all are. So that is fine. Especially since talk is so cheap these days, with the dollar going lower and all! cheers! Victor
