<As usual greed and fear tearing me apart>

Dostoevskiy "otdihaet" (g).

SA miners were one of the first to move up in May, they may be the first to go down.

One thing where we differ is the timing of the market decline (I agree with Ruth that once "long everything" fest is over, HUI will be hit hard). If you think that the big decline is starting now, it's time to sell HUI. You are greedy (g).

Why not buy some puts, then ?
no shortage of what to buy puts on -g-

my current allo's :

pm shares 64 % (in a mutual fund mostly)
physical pm's (via mill bullion fund) 29 %
puts on xau and other gold shares 3 %
puts on s&p / iwm / tlt/ other us indicies or shares 3 %
misc 1 %

i keep seeing puts disintegrate in value and the pm fund go up...hard to know what to do but since the pm fund has a focus on juniors i think i'll continue to sweat this out for awhile more...the majority of the puts are near term, a month or two out, so i do cover a fair bit of ground if the crash that never will come does come -g-
