'Stocks are made to be sold' - a quite well-off old fat bald guy told me this years ago, if i'd taken it more to heart i'd be better off today ... but it has saved me from getting ground down playing those double and triple ETFs long, after being clued into their deterioration by savvy SIers months ago [forget who exactly, but thanks guys] ... only way i'd play them is short, if at any point they couldn't be borrowed, then back to high-leverage juniors ... where the heart is anyway, likely if i did have a short account set up i'd only dabble in that stuff

Brent holding up much better than WTI, could it be a more realistic measure

Bhartistan - lol, haven't heard that for years, thanks mimur ... ogi - can't recall wim.to having Limón, don't think they did [could be wrong but wasn't that Black Hawk], they had Jacobina which ended up with Desert Sun and now Central Sun, Velardeña which Ecu has, and Bjorkdal that is now goz.v ... we've taken quite a bit of profit on goz.v lately, fwiw, all the shares bought .13-.16 and a few of the others we rode down ... actually most all of that went to oilsands juniors, a bit early maybe

[edit] - cdb.v news, how about that, meant to ask what was up with them ... took some profit there, sold the wife to freebies late january, don't really follow coals so don't know what to think
