With resepect to Mr Market, I think me bank manager also has a good chuckle from time to time. When I ask for more money I cry when I loose it, he laughs, When I repay it early He cries and I laugh....mostly I think he laughs though ;-)

I'm still LONG ,with stop losses of course and in profit.Was thinking of buying more,quite sorry i read the doomsayers opinion, as now i wont!

[#17]

With all this talk of the Sept/Oct periods being so bad traditionally are we talking ourselves into selling mode? Does anybody know if it is a real fact that this period is always goes through a slump? I know that these are the risks we take but would hate to sell because of historic perception which could be noting more than just that........a perception not really based on fact.

Thx

Gold not very tasty, and when it gets out the "kettle" it's too darn hot to drink.

[DEP]

Hmmm... We still in the same position as yesterday. Market looking for direction from the US.
