If Ambac gets the rescue, likely the market will have a decent bounce, since we're oversold and bears could not move the market any more.
I think gold is at a critical point, either we pass through $1000, or we consolidate right here, before make another push higher. I think the game plan is to add over time.
After carefully reviewed GDX, DBC and GLD. I think now is a time to just buy GLD. There are risks involved in GDX, and recently GLD outperformed GDX.
So I'll reduce GDX, I already sold DBC. And I added DGP, it's double gold ETN. If I truly believe gold will do well in the next 12 months, DGP will likely to double the return of GLD.
So my plan is simple:
- GLD and DGP are the main positions to build.
- Reduce GDX.
- Hold some small speculative positions, currently I have AAPL and ABK. I think both of them will have a big bounce if positive news come out. I almost pull the trigger on MF when it came back from 14 and finished around 17, but I didn't and missed it.
- Watch DBA, DBC. They are too far ahead and if economy is heading into a recession, common sense says commodities shall head lower.
- China will control price on foods, said the premier, this will cool the red hot commodities markets over time.
- So to play inflation over the next 12 months, or this economic cycle, gold should be the main focus. GLD and IAU. If you're very aggressive, then DGP.
- GDX will outperform GLD in a normal environment, but with energy cost and environment protection around the world, I think the cost of gold mining will increase dramatically, so GLD is far safe bet than GDX, even with less return.
