Did go up 60% on NVIV, so that helped

Anybody tried some gold/silver funds? Since the market took a dive monday I figured I would get in some.
I picked up some CEF, a canadian fund that purchases and holds gold and silver. Kind of easier than purchasing my own. Also got some TGLDX, which holds a little gold, but mostly invests in companies that mine and process gold and other precious metals. It's the only one I could find that is no load. :dunno:

I'm clearly not paying enough attention because I had no idea Tableau was going IPO. It's pretty much all anyone talks about in the presentation layer space these days, so I'm not at all surprised it popped. I think it's a good long term play, but I'm curious to see what happens this coming week.

I didn't know about that either, looks like they're doing fine so far. And their cool ticker name almost makes up for the company name. :thumbup:

It looks like a cheap way to buy many different stocks in a particular industry. I just signed up and poked around a little. I will likely fund an account soon. If you want to sign up let me know. If you use a referral link we both get $100 free.

Second guessing my CEF and TGLDX, but still holding for now.
RGR has crossed SMA 200 (200 day simple moving average), selling this one. Need $ to try some SCTY sometime after the 10th when dust settles. Some 80% of their shares will be available for sale for the first time. If the insiders hold and their price doesn't tank after that I'm in.
