I don't know Hutch, did you see this?

Maybe investing in the metal will not make a lot of sense, but I think there is a return brewing where-by profitable companies will be rewarded. After reporting of 4Q1999, I think any companies which can not show a profit will get hurt. Those that can show a profit will do have an improving stock price, reguardless of the busines they are in. The gold carry is falling apart and I don't think the game will ever get as it was again..

Will gold be as it was before? NOTHING is ever exactly as it was before. Who knows, what 2-5 years may bring.

I've always had a greater respect for Bob Marley than Jacob.

Hutch: Reorientation to reality: As Santayanna said: those
that don't learn from history are bound to repeat it".

I say Hutch, those that repeat history's mistakes,
( printing valueless money like Germany in 2nd world war )
willreap the same benefits.

Some say the Economy is slowing, so need to raise rates.
What if one of the reasons it appears that the economy
is slowing is because we have run out of workers to hire?
How can you grow without workers?


But he remaining workers are not standing still:
They will demand higher wages because of higher prices.

In the next month prices are going up because:
* more expensive goods from overseas won't restrain our prices.
* healthcare will start exploding because of Lawsuit fears.
* y2k supply disruptions.
* As out dollar falls based on the above people overseas
will buy less of it to support our debt, they may send
the debt home for repayment. What do we give them?

The last PPI looked benign ( 0.3 ) because Oct oil was not
included. That will be in in Dec report. Just in time for
the Fed to raise rates in the middle of y2k: the longer
the Fed takes to raise rates, the worse the enviroment/time
to do it,

I am looking at Gold at $400+ next 3 months ( especially from y2k disruptions ),
