LOL. I love the southwest so that cliff appealed to me. I am getting close to setting some limit orders on some gold...finishing up my DD...I really do want to wait for a pullback, sometimes in the next month or so...hoping for a technical bounce on the $ as well to perhaps put some $ in Ozzie or New Zealand $. Maybe the loonie but I sort of think not. Have been reading on some other threads too. Thinking about what I might want to buy. Trying to figure out if I want a little $ in Matthews Asian Funds (Pacific Tiger)...would be buying on an uptrend which I don't like...their funds can be volatile, but it's a way to participate in China. WMT would be too...I almost bot at 52 and wish I had...I just can never bring myself to buy anything except on a retrace. I also was considering some Canadian oil/gas trusts. Those are PVS and ERF (the latter is a mix of gas and oil). They give dividends. I know nothing about dividends and have never owned a dividend stock. Any thots about all this? It is all new areas for me and I get nervous. I basically know position trading in stocks and options. Sometimes even though I know how to do that I don't. As in, when RIMM got beaten down to 77 the other day I really wanted to buy some options and make a quick buck. But I am much more conservative than I used to be, and I passed up the opportunity, which was sort of stupid. I did do well on SSTI which I bought when it got beaten up. And Cisco I traded in and out of. I like to buy them on oversold.
