Land drillers It was strange that the land drillers like GW, NORT, PDS, PTEN, TBDI, UTI didn't participate in the late day rally today. It looks like tomorrow may be their day to shine. I posted this on a thread I frequent. techstocks.com Regards, Paul

Rory, OT over the long haul gold sucks, its true, but all things are relative. the NEM Sept. 17 1/2 calls I bought yesterday are worth twice what I paid for them today. When the whole damn world has turned bearish on the stuff, I figure it's time to buy a little and with leverage. I could be wrong, but there are a number of factors lining up that might see interest in gold perk up just a little. fwiw

OT: Gold has indeed been a disaster for many years now.but the tide is changing and the lows are in despite all the bearish news items. Lookimg for a move to $300 or better by year-end, with gold stock indexes up 50% or more from current levels. Base metals, oil, and now grains are moving up. Gold is starting to follow. In a real gold bull CB sales will be easily absorbed as they were in the 1970s. I do prefer oil to gold. But the OSX has already jumped 50%; gold stocks are still very near their lows and are down considerably from year-end 1998.
