Thread: Shorting the metals?

If things don't pan out the way the guru's expect (the world is falling, coming to an end and etc.) and gold doesn't rush to obscene highs, anybody else looking to short it?

What is everyone's choice of shorting the metals turn to?

GLD and SLV are so thinly traded (option wise)I am looking for other avenue's, to short with options.

Any suggestions?

SLV is pretty thin, but i've never had any problems getting out of GLD. What type of option strategy are you looking at taking?
