Sometimes correct, sometimes wrong, too !

In late 1999, I said silver was going under $5 after Y2K hype and may get as low as 4.50 (probably my best prediction)

In May, I said gold was going sideways ($275ish) for the rest of the year.
It made a little run toward $290, but averaged $279 for the entire year.

I did not expect an XAU rally, but expected it to hold better than it did.
I missed the October/November opportunity to buy back (XAU@41.61)
Newmont was cheaper than ABX (a ratio I use), so I should have known to buy NEM !

Anyway, you did get in and I give you credit for an excellent correct call.

Here's a good chart showing how good the November opportunity was:

(nice double bottom on the daily chart)

Despite my incompetence, I still managed to make about 25% in gold stocks in 2000.
I wish I had just put all of my money (instead of just some) in 30 year zeros and went on vacation for all of 2000 <g>
