Re Gold: your sell timing looks prescient. Every guru and newsletter falling over themselves with bullish predictions.The US$ has strengthened, the Fed will raise fed funds again, not a good climate for gold. Re Oil: The bear case rests almost entirely on a world economic slowdown. No such prospect is in sight. The IMF predicts that this year worldwide savings ratios will hit their highest levels in two decades.With economies buoyant, oil demand will continue to strain available supplies especially refined products. So I disagree with selling Oil or refining companies short. Quite the contrary, would use the current setback to increase long exposure.
