Going for Gold

Yeah, there's a storm on the loose, sirens in my head
Wrapped up in silence, all circuits are dead
Cannot decode, my whole life spins into a frenzy
--Golden Earring

Bot some physical gold today. First physical purchase of the year. It's difficult for me to buy in a rising market. Plus, selection on venues like ebay has not been all that great.

Given the macro state of affairs, however, gold could be strong for quite some time.

My 2011 goal is to add 3-5% by weight. If prices stay strong, then perhaps I'll try to 'dollar cost average' some coins each quarter.

Should gold price take a significant dive, then I might get more aggressive.
