I don't think Spoos are in a bull at all. This is a secular bear in its 9-th year. We are seeing the dilution of the dollar. When the dollar rallies spoos drop. There are huge real losses for Spoos investors. Some day it will turn, but like with all secular moves, it is hard to tell which year. We fooled into thinking it's a bull and pay taxes on capital gains, which only enhance the real losses. Would you invest in Nikkei? Actually, I think that one is better than spoos. -g- Message 25805681 So, due to Fed manipulations Spoos bears are left with no choice but timing gold rise vs spoos drop, or you can just short spoos outright and convert the dollars to gold. -g-
