Ron:

Yesterday was a good day indeed for investors in junior mining shares.
While the Dow tanked, gold initially dropped and fell to at least
-$1.30, only to recover and close up $.80 in New York. There was a
tremendous rally in the Junior mining shares, which of course had
been smashed just a few days before. You mentioned a number of stocks
that rallied, and in addition to those, Corriente finished the day
up C$2.20 ! The news on Bre-x is improving, and hopefully we'll
see stabilization of the juniors.

I realize that it makes some sense to think that if the Dow Jones Ind.
has a severe correction, that gold and gold
stocks may follow. The way gold is behaving, I think that we may
be near an important bottom in the yellow metal, and that it may
behave in a counter-trend manner to the Dow. I suspect that if indeed
gold rallies (silver, palladium, and even platinum have much stronger
charts than gold-and gold should follow), the gold stocks will follow.
Remember that there is going to be money on the sidelines looking for
a home, and a rally in the gold shares could be accompanied by a major
cash influx, as people and funds cash in their Dow stocks.

Regards

Dan
