Donald: In your post, you mentioned the potential short squeeze of gold stocks and the possibility of USD weakness. These are important considerations. There are few gold experts because gold stocks have more uncertainties than other stocks. There are two main uncertainties: 1. Central bank actions Large scale selling, change borrowing rates for professionals taking short positions. Who knows what central banks will do next? 2. Producer hedging activities Based on past records, AEM, HGMCY had no hedging; AU, HM, NEM had low hedging; ECO, MDG, PDG had medium hedging; ABX was a high hedger. Past records may not be good indicators for current activities. Julius
