Earlie, Yellow gold and black gold. <g> Thanks to MB's 1/3 rds game over the last 18 months was able to collect SA gold stocks with very nice average prices. Keep watching for IMPAY and AAPTY to get hit. I am in the same boat with you on oil. The stocks that I like are not inexpensive "yet". Happy holidays, Joan

Earlie, A note on sectors that will do well during bad times. I have owned a core position in ADM for most of my adult life. <g> It was tough during the time they got caught with price fixing, but that is behind them now. When it was trading in the $8 - $9 range during 2000 I backed up the truck and bought with vigor. Have taken profits on most of this position at the $15 level. The stock is expensive now, but it would not surprise me if during a sell at any price market the stock could trade down in the $8 to $11 range. This company delivers good returns as they pay dividends in both stock and cash. The dividend return this year was north of 6% at current prices. Joan

>>The longer term picture for the gas and oil sector also suggests that these stocks are getting cheap. >> Any thoughts on MIR here? Seems to have bottomed...maybe (gg)
