Paul, We got lucky with TIE - who knew it would get going with the run in the commodity markets - not me!!!!! I took my profits with the 3 bagger!!!! It will probably go to $100 now that I have sold. <g> The only oil related stocks I am holding at the moment are the tankers NAT and VLCCF. I like the return of capital income with these stocks. My 9% TLM preferred A got called this week - I am crying over the loss of this asset. Am holding FCO, FAX, GIM, PSAFX and have some Australian, New Zealand and Canadian government bonds. Also have some gold and silver stocks. I got killed with these assets today. <g> I am using ICPHX incase the US dollar tanks and hold some BEARX expecting this market to get reasonably priced in my life time. Started collecting a position in QRACX and am looking at adding the Pimco Commodity fund to this mix. Still am holding small positions in VELCF, IAF, USU, ADM, and AAUK. It will be interesting to see what happens to foreign debt, gold and silver stocks when this market starts tanking.
