:0) while the correction of gold has been unpleasant, it handily beat a lot of other strategies (long only, short only, naked this, fully covered that, long and short, short and long, relative value, no value, bottom-up fundamental, macro top-down factoids, triple bottom technical, double shoulder mechanical, round-and-round day trade, quaint philosophical, steadfast principle, astro, animal guts, tea leaves, very busy do something, very hectic do anything, etc etc) this year as players twisted, turned, contorted, gyrated, and in general got messed up

whatever else is happening, gold has been true
