We are not yet in Zimbabwe, but wait a few months and it will sure seem that way. I expect a repeat of commodity moves of Fall 2007/Spring 2008, only much bigger. The largesse of the Fed has been enormous, and even though it won't show up immediately, show up it will... -ng- Gold will break 2K-3K by 2010-2011. I am managing risk in gold equities, but there is nothing else I am doing, except rotating the profits from hedges into gold equities, gradually. Not sure if gold decline from 200MA is already over, gold looks strong. Message 25265301 Stocks will continue to decline in real terms, but anything is better than the treasuries in this situation. I am looking at other ways to short the dollar - commodity plays, whatever. Oil actually looks interesting, but maybe not yet time to go long. I expect it to exceed the Summer peak and go absolutely ballistic. Of course, this has nothing to do with the "peak oil", rather, this has everything to do with US monetary policy. I also suspect that the lows for the bear market in stocks have been seen, and it's over now.
