gold and energy stocks tend to run counter to one another
if so, HOU and HEU are current buys, and HGU is a “lighten up” or sell.
I don’t think i’d have the guts to be shorting gold via HGD, but the next three months
should prove strong for HOU and HEU.
come spring a rotation from […]
this is the ETF that tracks two-times the energy index

The new urbanism is spoken about frequently, in the same breath as Vancouver. It is more than real-estate and shiny new condos, it also includes all the little things that have been part of Vancouver for a much longer period of time.
This just-published article delves into some of the challenges experienced by other cities as […]
