This account is largely a hard asset play and serves as a hedge for other dollar denominated securites held elsewhere. It uses options to increase the exposure to longs (SA) and buy -writes for income ( COP ). I plan to create a more balanced account with Hard Assets, Value plays and other alternative assets.

 

SA

Holding Rationale for SA.

Well positioned Canadian Gold producer. Owns importatnt operations with cheap costs , its ikely a take over candidate and located in North America, instead of Venez or Russia.

COP

Holding Rationale for COP.

Commodity / hard asset play. I believe COP to be possibly the best Oil Stock.

Tagged Stocks: COP 

 

GLD

Holding Rationale for GLD.

Multi year bull market which hasn't taken out prices of the 1980's. I believe Gold could trade above $ 1,000 OZ in the next 3 years. This position also hedges against my dollar risk in this and other portfolios.
