Investors –
Will you be a Winner or Loser?

In the current
markets seems all investors, virtually in the world, are being
rewarded with gains in their portfolios.
The U.S.
markets as measured by the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DOW)
and the S&P 500 continue to make new highs as do most of the
foreign stock markets, China, Brazil, Mexico, etc.
The commodities
markets, gold, silver, copper, oil & gas and others also
continue to do very well as do the individual natural resource
shares and/or their long-term warrants.
Most currencies
are very strong with the Euro, British Pound and Canadian Dollar
continuing their upward climb, of course, at the expense of the
U.S. Dollar.
If you are like
me, many of our friends still think we are crazy for investing
in the natural resource sector and they are bragging about the
DOW hitting new highs.
We should all
be reminded that investing and the markets are basically a game,
albeit, a serious game with our monies at risk. As in any
game, however, there will be winners and losers unlike the
current situation in the markets, where almost everyone is
winning.
So, what is
going on?
Liquidity and
so much of it, continues to drive the markets around the world,
but for a few brief moments yesterday (Wednesday) with Ben
Bernande talking about inflation, I thought we finally had a
separation. At one point, the DOW was down well over 100
points, the HUI (gold index) was up very strong as was gold and
silver and the U.S. Dollar on the verge of total collapse. It
actually appeared the markets were starting to make some sense
(at least to those of us, bullish on the natural resource
sector).
Perhaps we have
not yet reached the point where the natural resource sector
shares will continue higher without the benefit of and support
of the general stock markets. But, we believe the day is coming
very soon as the U.S. Dollar breaks down that gold and silver
will explode upward as they get the attention and respective of
investors around the world.
When this game
is over and the music stops there will not be chairs for all
players. There will be some winners and many losers. We
believe the winners will be those investors that have aligned
themselves to the natural resource sector and the many different
ways to invest therein. An incredible number of choices, we as
investors have, mutual funds, ETF’s, gold & silver bullion,
mining shares and/or their long-term warrants, etc.
The message
here has to be one of commitment and patience, picking your
investments carefully and enjoying this ‘game’ knowing that when
the music stops we will be sitting down and richly rewarded.
