Hang on to that gold folks. Nice upside reversal for NEM and others...what the hell happened the last 5 minutes for the market to tank so fast? Bought more NKE Jan 40 puts at 4 5/8ths just before this latest tank a few minutes ago. Thanks Beebs for the heads up.

Suggestion: Whenever I suggest it may be time to get into the oils, short 'em. Fortunately, I didn't jump in this time. Another head fake! Lordy!

Now it just wouldn't be that damn - evil tower if reacted normal in a timely way. Nice negative 163% bad earning surprise and all.

Sometimes I wonder if the only people involved in the trade of this stock are the shorts and insiders. Maybe the same.

Sold my golds yesterday before it hit. Bought back my AU today for 1/4 point less. Thought it would go down more considering some of the others. Still feel safe here. Figure that no overhead resistance helps as people don't worry so much about being stucksters - concidering what some gold longs have been through in the recent past. Not so prone to wild swings anyway.

Well Thean, The family will be traveling to your neck of the woods tomorrow. Ohio correct? My husband's 25th reunion. (he's much older than me - gg).

Wishing the thread my best. May the tower meet a timely demise.

Thean, what do the tea leafs say on AFS. I'm underwater on my Oct puts at 65, and the rally today in them has me tempted to cover. Dont know when you did the put, hence the question. TIA
