don't ask me why...i wouldn't touch financial stocks with a ten-foot pole here...then again, maybe that's why they're up? i don't follow ABX... it's a hedge fund with a hole in the ground on the side. you can just as well go and short gold futures...i don't need a supposed mining concern doing this for me.
