Wade & Dan et al,

I think I missed a couple of weeks or I messed up in posting the data for the second a third weeks of August. Sorry about that. I will post the last three weeks below.

I don't recall seeing anything in Barron's the past few weeks concerning PMs. Lease rates looked like they were going to equal their all-time lows last week but they have bounced back; though they remain very low. I'm not sure what they are telling us.

The GMI/POG ratio:

On 8/25, the Barron's GMI was 650.44 down from the 8/05's 664.15. With the POG also down at 436.75 (8/26), the ratio was down at 1.49.

On 9/01, the Barron's GMI was 688.07 up from the previous week's 650.44. With the POG also up at 443.60 (9/02), the ratio was up at 1.55.

On 9/08, the Barron's GMI was 695.18 up from the previous week's 688.07. With the POG also up at 448.25 (9/09), the ratio held at 1.55.

The ratio has reached the high side of the middle range but it doesn't yet suggest strongly a rise or drop in the POG or stocks. It may be indicating that interest in mining stocks is beginning to increase significantly.

The ratio a year ago was 1.50, almost as high as today.
