I stuck to my guns yesterday and didn't sell a thing, in fact I would have added if I'd had cash to hand. Gold investors seem to be the nerviest lot I've ever encountered, permanently bricking it every time there is a rise (even a highly ordered and steady one like the rise since Christmas), and turning excessively gloomy at the slightest fall.
It's enough to make me think that they have never owned any equities before, as the 'one step back, two steps forward' stuff we've seen in gold is nothing unusual in bull market terms and we have barely had any of the infamous 'rubber underpants' volatility which PMs often produce.
The big help with gold at the moment is that buying the dips has been made so easy by the cartel. The blatant signals given by their clumsy attempts to orchestrate price drops are giving plenty of clear opportunities. God bless them, I say!
I like to follow the old adages:
1. Let your winners run.
2. Let the bull market make you a genius!
