Sector Spotlight: Gold

Tech is really starting to annoy me here. Instead of fucking around with the likes of Steve Jobs, I'd rather buy some gold.

Right now, I do not like the behavior of the market. It has a sucker feel to it, where only asshat top tickers get poleaxed regularly.

Sure, there are pockets of strength in a variety of sectors, but none look as good as Gold/Silver.

In short, I feel selling some Tech for Gold makes sense here. Furthermore, in general, the Metals look good, with outsized gains in GGB, BOOM, and ACH.

Finally, if the Metals continue to run, the shorts will become victims, trapped in TIE.

NOTE: Please take the new "Fly Survey." Where is Gold going next?

Comments:
Are you of the belief that the rising price of crude is putting pressure on stocks?
 
Have to disagree with gold. Gold stocks are not confirming the move. Gold usually does best when led by the gold stocks or at least conferming the move in the physical metal. A good move may be to buy GLD and short NEM, ABX at the same time. Not the way to make alot of money but is a decent hedge.
 
We differ because I don't buy Gold stocks, only the index or commodity.

Therefore, my perspective is based upon the metal price.
 
It's all going to shit...look out below!
 
ADY is getting it's udders smoked today. What do you think of AUY?
 
The S&P and the Dow are still strong. I suspect that CSCO is going to save tech tonight, much like AAPL did a couple of weeks ago.
 
Sorry Indigo but CSCO is leading us lower. Those recent upgrades were the institutions helping a good customer unload their shares. Kinda like the ADBE initiation this AM. Any strength - earnings related or otherwise is an opportunity to sell.
