Chloe,

I just luuuuuuurrrrrrrvvvv it when people people ask questions retrospectively (after having done s/thing they later think they shouldn't have)! What's he point? You posed a question as if you were THINKING of buying Suncor - didn't know you were ALREADY under water (read oil). Well, you crude shorts are hedging you WELL against that loss.

No, I'm not short Gold. If I was, I would've posted here. Oil should make a final stretch a shade above 80.50, after which it should be adios 80s for a while. And once it comfortably breaks 80, then you can throw the kitchen sink at the short...

Chloe,

* oil sands only economical if crude oil is ABOVE 75 (and we keep flirting w/ this average).

Chloe,

Suncor has made its empire over the last three years...and been back since then. Don't know why you'd want to hold it. It derives it's oil from oil sands - a EXTREMELY environmentally hazardous process (not to mention extremely expensive process...only economical if crude oil is below 75) - & was one of the losers (and will continue to be) of the recent 'climate' drama!

I replied to your yesterday that oil would go sub-80 TODAY. Well, it went...& we still have 2.5 hrs to go (GMT). I also said that you need to be a bit patient...or else you'll play STRAUGHT into 'their' hands...

i bought a 1085-1055 put spread on gold back when there was the article about the gold dead cross , been holding it ( obviously not as risky as futures) however they expire tomorrow although loss is limited im hoping for a small gain, not getting my hopes too high though
