Mish, I don't think his take is so ridiculous. In my understanding and definitely in my personal case of a short sale, any short or long as of December 31 on the COMEX has to be marked to market and therefore the loss is in the books even from a tax perspective. Now I can't tell what it is for a Canadian company but in the U.S., this would be the case and as it is listed on the NYSE I would think the U.S. rules would apply as well. Why couldn't they hit trouble much earlier as their losses mount with a rising gold price?
