there is a difference between gold and the gold mining industry. Indeed.. Although I've never been known as a gold bug (and I still am not), there is FINALLY something to be said for gold, if only due to the fear in Japan, as well as miner's decisions to reduce hedging. But this is a commitment which may fall under pressure by those companies seeking to capitalize on the windfall they are currently seeing, should they seek to improve their capital positions and acquire other gold miners. (if you don't hedge, you're at a financial disadvantage to those companies that do). But I will say that with $12 Trillion in cash to potentially deploy into gold, the Japanese could prove to be a major force in the metals markets. It all depends on how Tokyo and the BOJ manage this devaluation in order to prevent panic selling of Yen. Btw, the month chart of the XAU is looking mighty powerful, supporting the belief that their is a major bull market in gold companies unway that could carry forward for several years. But what that means for the POG itself is unknown. Hawk
