< Even 1 million ounces doesn't do it anymore (one of my new realities of the gold market)> As perception changes [worsens] more and more is demanded of the company until only a few are even on the radar screens on institutions. This is EXACTYLY what happend to biotech until about a year ago... you could have bought the whole sector for the market cap of MERK! Sound familiar?? Was this a "new reality"... yea for about a year, then BOOM! The fundamentals became so compelling they couldn't be ignored... check back and see the returns of this totally ignored sector: Subject 14492 siliconinvestor.com The second one is less than 1 year old, and the first only shows this year in it's returns but had a fabulous 99 as well. I agree with you that unless gold moves there won't be many compelling stories, but I also wouldn't expect the current demands on a stock to make it buyable to remain so strict... if gold starts to move, the ugly ducklings will turn into swans just like every other sector has seen.
