Heard earlier today that supposedly Paulsen lost $1B on the gold selloff.

Einhorn got creamed, too. His recent performance must be horrible, as his top 3 holdings are Gold, Apple and GM.

Even though the market has had a good year, so far, I believe many Mutual Fund investors are going to be unpleasantly surprised by their Funds' performance, as many have Apple as their largest holding.

Tend to agree with you. Still a long way to go before year-end, but if your account ( MF Managers i mean ) isnt up at this point, they need to be replaced.

it looks like gold is heading back down to 1320 to try to test a bottom. if that doesn't hold 1270 is next stop. gold miners are all weak too and look like a further break in them is coming

I directed my 401k to go full bore (50%) into real estate holdings about two years ago...and I've been one happy camper every three months since (around statement time)...still don't see any reason to allocate out of real estate either...does anyone here disagree with me?

Man, Gold has been a day trader's wet dream in the after-hours tonight...50 point swings up and down with ease...crazy!! Action like this only comes around once every couple of years...this time, it's Gold...

That is true. Same thing for the QQQ. I think at one point, AAPL made up 19% of the QQQ.

You made an important point, YOU directed it, not some guy in an office. THe problem is that most people just give their money to a firm, have no clue what is being bought and then get mad if they lose money..I call that being very careless. About real estate, i dont like to make predictions, but i think there is a bubble out there waiting, only time will tell and i dont put money out on a hunch. In any sector i would rather let the big money show me where to go.
