Good, particpate in the market broadly as a long-term investor and reap the benefits of corporate success, via large companies and small (I'll pass on the precious metals under the mattress mind-set).

By the way, corporate profits reported against Q1, what does that have to do with recent events of the past 4-6 weeks that are driving current fuel costs to the consumer?

I get the bitch, gas is fucking expensive, but the old worn-out "complain about big oil" is a false target.
