It's not something I would put a hight % of my net worth into, etc. It has to be done with pure risk capital.

For what it is worth, I think your timing right now is pretty good. The market feels oversold. However, I personally wouldn't put any short term money on it. I am too old to play that short term game anymore. I am buying a few things now, but I don't plan on selling them for 3-5 years.
