Jim:

Rates are backing up despite AG's determination to keep the punch bowl forever full. The dollar is weakening, slowly but surely, and the market is pushing up long-term rates. Sooner or later AG is going to have to follow. He is powerless as regards the long term end of the treasury market. If rates back up to 5 1/2 to 5 3/4 range, they could be the pin that pops this equity bubble we've been in for some time now. If that happens, I expect the gold stocks will be taken down with the general market, at least in the short term.

Gold clawing its way up is tough enough given the array of forces doing their damnedest to manipulate it to keep it under $300 and this back up in rates and what it portends for the general market can't be good for gold short term. Money supply has been exploding for months now, which will ultimately benefit gold but a stock market crash will swamp all boats. A very real possibility, IMO. Good luck trading.
