It has been a rough couple of months for gold bugs. With the precious metal slowly declining in price since the start of 2013, Aprilâ??s nosedive has driven many investors out of the commodity once considered a â??safe haven.â? Down nearly 17% this year and almost 30% from September 2011 highs, the best years of gold investing seem behind us. What was once thought of as a darling of the commodity space is now an asset that has destroyed a number of portfolios in recent years, and even fooled a few famous traders.
