RE: RE: RE: First POST!

To be quite honest, I got out out RR bonds in october. did a good run from last january but now they are getting overpriced. I don't think inflation is such a concern for now. I think that the prices will come down next year once people realize that we are not out of the woods just yet. Been busy buying XLB, CLF and gold miners lately.

I've got gold & silver certificates and I doodle with the ETFs as well (CEF, GLD, SLV and the new bullion betapros)
