Well, you think you can't get a better return on your investment elsewhere.

Just going up isn't enough if something less risky goes up faster.

Going down a little can even be a relatively good bet if everything else is absolutely tanking. Losing 1% of your principle is a pretty good deal if the stock market (and the dollar) go down a lot.
