One of the most famous traders of "all time" was Jesse Livermore. One of his quotes stuck in my mind over the years: "There is a time to be bullish and there is a time to be bearish, and there is a time to go fishing" - If I don't have the quote exactly right you should get the message. I believe that smart investors should be taking positions in VIT and other gold related investments for the many reasons that have been expressed at this web site, but after taking your positions, it is a good time to go fishing - we already know the bullish case for gold bullion and VIT, but we are in a period of limbo for both the gold market as well as the junior gold companies. IMO things will be resolved to the upside, but it is fruitless to anticipate what will happen on a daily or weekly basis. IMO, you buy the fundamentals and just sit tite - take a peek at VIT and gold bullion a month from now or perhaps three or four months from now and I believe you will be pleasantly surprised to see how your gold and gold related investments have performed.
