All rights reserved actually, i also believe that there's potential for the metals markets to eventually ( probably a few years hence ) to go 'crazy' as you've put it, similar to '79/'80. but getting there will be a rocky road, with more than one opportunity to improve returns by means of a little judicious money management. like i said, even in the 70's bull we got a correction that surely felt like a major bear market at the time. DROOY went from $20 to $2 for instance - and subsequently rose to $52 in the mania phase. this is one of the most volatile market sectors - iow, it's quite suitable for trading. i look at investment in bullion a little differently...it's a form of saving, as well as financial debacle insurance. the best approach is probably to keep a core as well as a trading position in the shares for the duration of the bull market.
