I think a discussion about the exit plan could be an interesting topic for next author's post. I think author didn't go into details because the different methods are based on each investor risk preferences. What is good for one (buying put for example, but is costly) could no be attractive for others (one could prefer not buy any insurance and so saving cost, and cut position at some price level). Personally I use combinations of put / put spreads /short futures according beta and plain stop losses according my view and the cost of insurance each time.
Nice article by the way. Gary, I like SDIV if a retracement happens:
Just few hours after I wrote the comment....markets have rebounded thanks to Obama's words. when they show this strength it usually is a good signal... maybe I was wrong and another bull leg is starting now
Only NDx had a FTD and wasn't impressive as volume. I think market can have another leg down. I am ready to change opinion but I won't be surprised if S&P will try to break 1350 again.
Maybe Paul is a lazy man who can't sign by hand? lol, I'm joking. I agree with you that GLD and SLV have some shadow sides. I agree also with other who said they are good instrument to trade because very liquid..
In my opinion, if systemic financial collapse would happen (I hope it never won't) and someone relies on GLD/SLV to receive physical metal.... well I think that kind of investor will be quite disappointed... Bye
Next week end I'll update blog. At the moment I'm out from equity. My sell on EMB was evidently wrong.. it happens. Precious metals showed strength and could be a buy again this week if they continue to show good relative strength.
