Hello Pezz, Today's Report: Fire in the theatre!!! (a) I sold my precious uranium play Energy Resources of Australia at AUD 12.95, having bought it here Message 22136169 and there Message 22308644 at net AUD loss of 6.9%, but USD break even; (b) I dumped Woodside Petroleum (even though the US may hit at Iran, and/or Japan economy is recovering needing more oil or that China is tanking up strategic reserve ... I don't care) at AUD 43.84, having bought here Message 22308644 at AUD 44.75, showing a loss of 2% on AUD and a gain of 5% in USD (?!) (c) I unloaded Record Investment (even if the increased volatility may lead to outrageous gains for them) at AUD 10.62, recognizing AUD break even from Message 22308644 , and a gain in USD measure (whew!) Redemption should be sought, and second chance ought to be treasured. I must think about using Zimbabwe Dollar as base currency to pep myself up, up, and up some more ;0/ As to <<working ... trading>>, I am just running and hiding, for something horrid this way comes. As to <<I'm just holdin,watchin and hopin>> ... Oh, yes, did I forget to mention, the theatre is on fire. When the ship starts sinking, do not pray ... but jump. When things go bump in the darkness, do not turn on the light ... but start the machine gun going. Do the word "Tora" repeated three times in rapid succession mean anything to you? Chugs, J P.S. If you are not scared, do you still have a pulse ;0) P.P.S. Out of this trade Message 22308644 , I still hold and aim to maintain hold on Australian Wheat Board and Australian Worldwide Exploration

Hello Pezz, Tonight's Report: Looked at oil price, seems wrong, as nothing changed between yesterday and today, except oil shares went down, and may keep going down, for a while, if that. Anyway, bought the proxy for physical oil, derived from a construct of paper, as an experiment, and so paid USD 67.06/shr for USO finance.yahoo.com I figure to sell it for a 9% gain sometime in the near future, earlier the better. Chugs, J

Hello Pezz, Today's Report: Mis-sent this post to self, so here it is again Message 22477548 I want to increase my appetite for risk on gold, and so must reduce intake of side dishes. I think the time is rapidly upon us when all economic and financial developments, political and social possibilities, and the sum total of all fears and greed, will be distilled, and concentrated, and reflected in gold. The practice run we just had was illuminating, at least for me, and so will prove productively useful. Remember my paying down the loan ? Message 22427562 <<and today, I harvested the Swiss CHF and Thai Baht and placed them in Yen, at 111, give or take, and deLEVERAGEd.>> I can admit to "lucky, very fortunate, and thank you god" Else ... I do not want to even think about it. Chugs, J P.s. going forward, the adopted solution is and will continue to be inflation, to help the unwinding, even if at the cost of economic stagnation. The next rate decision will be telling. I guess no hike.
