<<This time of year, I would expect gold to start climbing due to the manufacturing sector building inventory for the holiday season. Since the 9-9-99 date was a non-event, I doubt 1-1-00 will have any effect. .....Is there some other factor which we should be looking for>> My opinion only: BUT if Y2k doesn't start hitting price soon, the impact of 1-1-00(after that date) will be negative on POG as more people dump after that, but how much after is anyone's guess. Second opinion(operative word), A new more honest President in the US, Blair seems to be losing edge in GB, swing seems to be toward a(somewhat)more conservative government next time in Germany. Any or all of these may alter(greatly)the entire basis & rules of the game. Next might be the booming population of India. A new government in Russia? Then of course, the coming recovery for the pending US market crash. BUT don't count out Y2k yet. Everyone laughed at my note of the penny shortage, but it has started in nickels also. When it quarters?????
