For DIG, check the Boom Boom Room thread, which constantly watches oil, gas, drill rigs, etc. DIG is a 2 X long, and if this is still a bear market, it is a trade, not investment. Rallies in bear market can be very sharp, but tend to end too soon... be sure to take profits.

Hello LJM, This thread is kind of an international pillow fight, where we taunt each other about our relative strengths and weaknesses. The 2x funds like DIG leak pretty badly, so IMO they're best for short term trades. I see you follow CRXL, the Dutch vaccine biotech. I traded it a couple times based on a write-up in Motley Fool, but haven't followed it lately. Do you think it's a buyout candidate? If so, who would be interested? Mostly I've been hiding out in short-term US Treasuries for the last 18 months, while riding the roller-coaster in some gold and energy holdings. -Snow
