If anyone ever had any doubts, just listen to the Q4 POT call and you will feel you need to own it immediately.NSTIEGEhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08233666386082240574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335748440449035592.post-29200642166858900152008-02-01T12:56:00.000-05:002008-02-01T12:56:00.000-05:00I am looking for a hedge. It does not mean it "won't go down". It is relative.<BR/><BR/>My options were<BR/>crops, oil, gold, or Altria<BR/><BR/>I find crops to be the safest of the 4. Gold and oil seem to trade together. Altria I want to buy the spin off.<BR/><BR/>We saw in the worst of panic they will sell off even DBA. But not much. Hence why I like it over gold. <BR/><BR/>Oil could be thrown to the door if worldwide slowdown thesis begins. I could see it in the $70s. If it stays in the $90s by this spring we are going to be talking $3.75 gasoline in US gas stations. But that doesnt matter to the Fed because inflation is just imaginery. And its great for retailers and homebuilders :) If you listen to the stock market.TraderMarkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06241756200482130281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335748440449035592.post-267305242525301612008-02-01T12:25:00.000-05:002008-02-01T12:25:00.000-05:00Mark<BR/><BR/>By the way, great post on the time to adjust strategy. Using DBA as money market, i never think of it!!! That's a gutsy call. I think both gold and oil is correct short term. Will you employ some kind of stop for DBA or you really believe it won't sell off along with the market when the world economy slow down???hieunguyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12450038505274285042noreply@blogger.com
