HOLDING #1 - Long/Short: ADDED 11/30/-0001
Gold Short (DZZ)
SHARES 710.000 | LATEST CLOSE 5.18 (+0.09) | Real $ $3,677.80 | Real $ % 2.91% |
| 1-DAY RET. 1.77% | 1-Mo. Ret. 0.78% | 3-Mo. Ret. 0.78% | 1-Yr. Ret. -14.38% | Held Ret. -16.18% |
IMPORTANT NOTE: DZZ is an ETN that shorts gold futures with leverage (2x). Don't buy a precious metals fund as an alternative as most own gold and gold mining stocks which we've been negative on for many moons. Those seeking more leverage (and costs and risks) and a smaller position can consider VelocityShares 3x Inverse Gold ETN (DGLD). A less risky as a longer-term strategy (but potentially more risky if gold rises) is simply shorting SPDR Gold ETF (GLD). Leveraged ETFs almost always decline over long periods of time.

HOLDING #2 - Emerging Market: ADDED 11/30/-0001
iShares MSCI BRIC Index (BKF)
| SHARES 339.226 | LATEST CLOSE 44.98 (-0.49) | Real $ $15,258.39 | Real $ % 12.05% |
| 1-DAY RET. -1.08% | 1-Mo. Ret. -5.94% | 3-Mo. Ret. -8.15% | 1-Yr. Ret. 26.29% | Held Ret. 39.31% |
IMPORTANT NOTE: Although technically this is a diversified emerging market fund, consider a Latin America-focused fund if you need to purchase an alternative. Most emerging markets are still not out of favor enough with investors.

HOLDING #7 - Foreign Bond: ADDED 11/30/-0001
SPDR Barclays Intl. Treasury (BWX)
| SHARES 864.001 | LATEST CLOSE 29.1 (-0.22) | Real $ $25,142.43 | Real $ % 19.86% |
| 1-DAY RET. -0.75% | 1-Mo. Ret. -0.94% | 3-Mo. Ret. 0.93% | 1-Yr. Ret. 8.73% | Held Ret. 12.81% |
IMPORTANT NOTE: We are intentionally adding foreign currency risk here; do not consider a high-yield (low credit grade), a dollar-hedged foreign, or an emerging markets bond fund if BWX isn't available to you. BWX is pricey for an index fund (0.50%) but is NTF at TD Ameritrade and trades with more volume than iShares International Treasury Bond (IGOV), the closest cheaper (.35%) alternative. Investors buying larger positions ($25k+) should consider (IGOV) with a limit order. Non-ETF alternative: American Century International Bond (BEGBX) - NTF and 0.80% expense ratio.
