2011/09/07 kimblechartingsolutions.com: harvest "safe havens" Gold GLD, Swiss Franc FXF, and 20 Year Treasury Bonds TLT

Chris Kimble (blog.kimblechartingsolutions.com) uses a nice chart showing that GOLD GLD, the SWISS FRANC FXF and the 20 Year Treasury Bonds TLT and have found long-term key resistance, all at the same time. Check out Chris' blog here:


From Chris' analysis it is clear that owning these "safe havens" plays at the wrong time - NOW - bears as much risk as any other type of investment. Chris concludes: "I remain of the opinion that conservative investors should harvest up against resistance and aggressive investors should "attempt to score on defense" at resistance with an upside stop if resistance doesn't hold."
