A chart of two fidelity sector funds, I've used them as ETFs don't go back to 1998. They aren't the top performers in their sectors but are a good representative of oil service and gold stocks. moneycentral.msn.com[/chart]

KF, <Security of gold? Wow, that's news to me.> Well, I'm glad you finally got the news. If you had the foresight to purchase gold bullion in 2003/2004, then you would see that the <wild ass ride> has been up for the past five years.
