While there is validity in your argument for highlighting the broader TSE Gold Index as opposed to the XAU as a relational gold predictor, lagger, sluggard or cheerleader... ...if I recall McAvity's love of the TSE and slavish charting of same and devination of same over the years, he made it a point to illuminate his readership about 3 years ago to some particularly disingenious changes in the TSE which introduced an element of comparing apples to oranges in trying to use TSE current against TSE historical prior to 3 years ago. Everyone alive and breathing knows that the XAU has been adjusted and distorted almost beyond recognition, and LONG before the gold carry trade and ABX entered the fracas. So, in the interest of scholarly/statistical relevance/pursuits, would you please at least occasionally address this truth about the TSE Gold Index when extolling its virtues to this myopic thread? Acknowledgement of this TSE "adjustment"...oh, say every 6-8 months for example would be nice. ;) Regards, O/49r
