Hi DMP. The purest play in Platinum is an ETN on Platinum that trades on U.S. equity markets. Symbol is PGM.

Hi Don,
Thanks so much for all the great information you provide on this site.
Can you point me in the direction of a pure platinum play, stock or ETF? I’d like to slowly accumulate a position for the seasonal play in this commodity.
Many thanks,
Dean

Hi Nirmal. Yes, both Brooke and I have read this book. The book focuses primarily on the overall stock market and does not attempt to look at sectors, commodities and currency (as offered in Brooke’s book). It also does not mention the possibility of fine tuning entry and exit points using technical analysis. Not surprising, the book identifies the best average optimal day to enter the U.S. equity market (October 27th) and the best average optimal day to exit the U.S. equity market (May 5th).

Don
I am very happy to see that a new ETF-HAC has been now issued.
I plan to buy it as long hold, because I am hoping that
the ETF manager will do the market timing based on your and Brock’s analysis.

Fianlly please tell me if you have read the book ” SEASONAL STOCK MARKET TREND”
BY JAY KAEPPEL.
If yo have what is your comment? Has he done his analysis in the same way
as Brock and yourself?
Thanks
NG

Somebody asked about Natural Gas. FWIW, Don Coxe gives his view at this link. http://events.startcast.com/events6/122/C0018/Event.aspx

Hi Eve. I was referring to the comment on the U.S. Dollar. Failure of the U.S. Dollar to move above resistance at its 50 day moving average triggered strong buying in gold yesterday.

Hi Mills. Sorry, I legally cannot discuss current content of the fund or specific plans to make changes. Content is published on a regular basis after the fact. The fund has the right to own Horizon Beta Pro ETFs when appropriate. The logical time to use them is for the “Holiday Trade” or the “Super Seven” trade when holding periods are relatively short.
