Happy veterans day

Today is a very popular day for weddings: 11/11/11. We are in glendale for a wedding ourselves.

The computer sent me thee signals for tomorrow; buy the Canadian dollar, buy the Swiss franc and sell short gold. While we don't like to short gold in the midst of a bull market, I do like the fact that the currencies are a hedge relative to the gold. And, as evidenced by last night's action, all could be right. Last night everything plummeted at the open then rallied the rest of the day. Our Nasdaq position isn't looking too good aa a result.

Have a great weekend! We'll be publishing statistics sunday night.
