I sold half my position in AUY but will buy it back shortly.One down period does not a speculative bubble make.I do not see a speculative bubble and my strength is relative prices of one thing to another since I was 10 years old (also synthesizing data to a relatively simple model,in medicine,economics and other areas) I also rely on those better than me on gold or any other area.Listen to Jim Rickards on Kings World News.When gold hit $800 an ounce in the 80s the US gold resrves covered 110% of all govt $ denominted debt.At its current peak the figure was 17%.My guess is that TJ has done better than 99% of investors out there over the last 7 years, as have I although gold made up a much smaller part of my gains.I like opinionated people even if I disagree because I want to see if their argument has logic.Just like doctors there are few great investors.If a great investor or a great expert in a field calls something a bubble I will listen and add that to my model with the strength I feel it deserves.I am just tired of those who have little knowledge,little intellect and or little expertise who express their opinion on things they know little about.I do not have a good feel for your skills as I have followed TJ for much longer and am not gearing this at your call of a bubble or you in specific.As for me TJ has earned my respect as an investor and in intellect and in leadership and although not a follower I would charge over many a hill at the Generals command.He has told us his moves and has generally been right.I tend to be right on investment moves 50-55% of the time and have made very good money since 2004.TJ I would guess has done better.Go General!
