Finallythere, I dunno if you can call me a table pounder on energy... I sure was high on agriculture stocks though and played a lot of fertilser juniors.. I started cashing in early July . but I was > 80% agriculture stocks not energy.. I actually started to rotate into some energy back then like PWE (PWT.UN) and DAY.UN but kept raising cash.. Way back here I actually posted my back of the napkin cash level here (although earlier than that I mentioned I was high cash, but I didn't know how high I was going then) Message 24788202 a thread I suspect many folks here have bookmarked also.. and in many posts thereafter ... I had planned to be cash by late spring and relax this summer.. .. I gave back a little better than 10% off my all time highs in the summer before my complacency wore off.. so I haven't just woken up one day and presto chango ... I'm cash.. It's a funny thing when you sell.. Some folks get pi$$ed off at you and some put you on ignore... Many don't like to hear others not singing the same tune.. I guess it raises doubt.. Anyway I've given back far too much profit, far too many times.. I'm stressed enough right now with 35% in and figure I'll be lightening that this week.. My skin is thick ;o) The Black Swan
