Personal Investment Portfolio:
Still sitting in money market and cash positions. Next week or at least in the near future, I hope to be positioned in equities again. Although much value could have been added to my portfolio in the past month, I just didn’t feel September was a good time to be re-invested.
Precious Metal prices continue to rise dramatically. Now that gold has crossed the $1000.00 mark again, many analyst’s don’t believe that price is sustainable short term.

As numbers above indicate, international markets and precious metals are on a continuing upward trend. I doubt very much that this can continue before we see a correction of some sort in the near future.
