Q: Why is KL taking a hit right now? Would you buy, sell or hold? Along the same lines, silver is plummeting too. Even though momentum is very negative, would you be accumulating silver names such as PSLV or SIL (an ETF) for any future rally, or do you think the sector might have trouble recovering? Thanks for your insight.
