Trade Update - DXO

Well, what people were saying actually came true for once: that when Europe cut rates today, that would boost the dollar, and oil would drop. I was a little worried with oil at $70 2 days ago, but sure enough oil has dropped to $60. DXO went under $5, so I bought a whole bunch. Unfortunately, now I have to sell a bunch of my Sprott funds to pay for the trade :(

Oh, and Please stay above $60, oil, so I can sleep the coming nights :)

Unrelated note: I plan to do a couple of posts on ETFs, ETNs, ETFs vs ETNs (now that I finally understand much better), some info on changes in the Sprott funds, as well as talk about something most people have never heard of: MICs.

Trades:
Bought DXO @ 4.85. Will be selling an equivalent amount of my Sprott Canadian Equity fund to pay for this.
