Dr DT OP : Just to confirm, my Tesla short is now closed.  Target hit at $218.  I am now in the money with SMCI short and all my gold and gold miners holding are having a strong day.  Good luck to all.

The ducks are lining up Crowdstrike today a perfect example how fragile tech can be,and the degree of damage it can cause. Some protection is not a bad thing with gold . Agree totally with your assessment and have positioned accordingly

Dr DT OP 151453268 witso : Gold had a down day on Friday.  We just need to be a bit patient.  No need to worry as this should be a long term hold.  FYI, NEM, world biggest gold mining company, will reports its Q2 earnings next week on July 24.  Expect a blow off top earning report.  Majority of gold mining companies will report in August and most established well managed miner companies would have robust earnings.  Any drops is opportunities to pick up more shares.  Be ready for a nice ride up by end of month into next month.  Cheers.
