Hi Craig- I was curious if you had an ETA for the gold FAQ that you are working on?

I’m not into market timing. If you are going to do this, then count it as part of your Variable Portfolio and not your money that you count as part of your Permanent Portfolio.

Craig- I was curious if you had checked out this blog by Clive? He describes a PP strategy of approximately 2/3 of his portfolio with the remaining 1/3 allocated to HY stocks based on a timing mechanism. Any thoughts appreciated.

Hi Craig- I understand that you may be working on a FAQ for gold investing. I highly recommend that you check out the following which is a post from bogleheads:

Mike Shedlock (“Mish”) has written about gold in the past and strongly endorses the ownership of bars over coins and also endorses goldmoney.com. Please note that Mish advises that the “markup” on gold coins is ridiculous and advocates bars. These links are well worth the read, IMHO.
