Buy gold

The next step in trying to make some money from oversold precious metal & mining stocks is to buy some gold: I bought some via the Benchmark Gold ETF - GOLDBEES @ 1175.

[Yes, I managed to get in a good entry compared to today's range - only because I had put in a limit order all day. Also, very good entries on longs usually mean the thing is headed down. :) ]

Why go long now?

Risks:

  • Oversold can get more oversold
  • Oil & industrial metal down-trends take gold further down with them
  • Indian farmers don’t buy gold this year, and instead go shopping at the South China Mall

My target is a 8%+ return on gold & 15%+ return on gold mining stocks, within a few weeks. Let’s see if this experiment succeeds.
