Still short the QQQ and SPY for 10% of my portfolio. Small 4%-5% loss or so... Nonetheless, good insurance/hedge because if the stock market goes down, then gold stocks likely will as well. This is my biggest fear, i.e. broad stock market decline takes gold shares with it...

Get this, after selling 25% of my Alamos today, 5% of my total trading portfolio for cash, my total allocation to gold stocks increased from 80% to 81.5%!! My gains in GBN, CBD, and EDV offset the measly cash received for Alamos...

Looks like it's going to be difficult to cull my gold stocks to 50% of my portfolio...
