Mr. Foo Sir,

I am OFF the playing field. And of course missing many of the HUI points we have seen in the past six weeks. Rather than hold miners, I have elected to get a daily beating holding housing shorts. It is great fun, but shorts will prevail. I just don't know when.

I have my bullion of course, but I don't really have plans to sell that at this time. I'm thinking 2010 or later.

I miss my miners, but I don't think we have seen even the second act of the Hank and Ben show. The show will get terrible reviews, and it might be painful for gold bulls and bugs. I'm watching those clowns to see how they plan to have their cake and eat it to. Strong dollar or housing stimulative rate cuts. Ben wants them both, but I don't think it is going to work out that way.

And, I expect a massive dollar rally in the near future. Totally and completely unrelated to any fundamentals, but that never stopped it before. That cover on the Economist stating the dollar is dead is a clear sign that a reversal is near.

ALL IMO, and probably wrong.

Mr. Foo Sir,

I couldn't help myself. I fell off the wagon. Back on the pipe. Call it what you will.

I just bought 5000 shares of Droopy for kicks*.

Good Trading
TH

*Didn't you promise me that you would beat me senseless if I ever did that again? Where were you when I needed you?
