yes, the action has been extremely encouraging. note btw, that the '93 bull run began in a very similar manner: the gap between the Rand gold price and the JGOL widened to a new extreme, and then the index began rallying from roughly the same level as recently while pessimism was really rife. i still remember a JSE broker calling me nuts for buying gold stocks...and trying to hawk some industrials to me instead. after the initial rally, a common refrain was 'it can't continue, because the dollar gold price isn't rallying and the shares are discounting such-and-such a price already'. the VERY SAME THING was said last week by a Jo'burg gold analyst...

Gold will move up in dollar terms due to lowering the interest rate and the low yield on US treasuries. There is fear of some inflation down the road and treasuries have a low yields now, so it is cheap to hold gold.

I can not wait until my Hedge Fund friend will tell me that they are out of oil and coal and now trade silver and gold ....... sign of another top <GGG>
