If you have "any" confusion as to where you fit in, regarding the 90/10...

Just read this...

I can not recall, nor think of, a more perfect example:

...Being in the know,being in the right circle,being where you should
be at the the right time and being that fly on the wall is where the 10%ters
are. The markets are rigged by design and human nature;DNA

The longer term trend is still intact;Oil and Gold will continue higher.
The Fed is a joke and those who run this country have failed us. Inflation
will be a household word spoken from the lips of those 90%ters. And as
sure as I am of myself the Fed will continue to tell us the system is viably
sound and intact and inflation should not be a concern.


re: "The longer term trend is still intact;Oil and Gold
will continue higher."


...that's what that spec home buyer in San Diego, and that Condo flipper
in Miami are telling themselves right now too.

The Trend?

-40-50-80% down in many PM stocks... and you want to hang onto
"the trend"?!?!?!

Tell that to all the gold bugs getting their stops run, getting margin
called, and getting wiped out -- because they "held tight" and drank
the Kool Aid waiting for Angels and Magnets to take gold higher,
or who listend to the pundits, and guru's who told them the juniors
were dirt cheap -- about 75% ago.

"Kool Aid -- Just Say No!"

Get the story right... but follow instead of leading, or react instead
of anticipating... and it matters not.

keeping it - has been the problem."
