Where there's gold there's fire... is it ready for bounce?

By Thom Calandra, FT MarketWatch.com
Last Update: 5:11 AM ET May 2, 2001

LONDON (FTMW) - Some professional investors are questioning...

John Hathaway, who manages the $20 million Tocqueville
Gold Fund from New York City (TGLDX:... says...

... says Edelson.

"In other words...
If the dollar continues to remain strong
or get even stronger, it's a darn good sign
there are big problems elsewhere in the world,
problems that could easily light a fire under gold."

... deficit between physical supplies and growing consumer demand
for cheap bullion could be as high as 25 percent...

Jude T. Wanniski, president of political consultancy Polyconomics Inc.,
says central banks will move back to using gold as an economic indicator.

"It was Karl Marx who actually impressed that on me when he
proclaimed that 'Gold is the commodity money par excellence.'
It is as good as it gets," says Wanniski, who airs his beliefs
at www.polyconomics.com. "The world is not going to give it up,
no matter what Milton Friedman, the monetarist,
or Yale's James Tobin, the Keynesian, say about it."

... that gold mining shares as measured by the
Philadelphia Gold and Silver Index (XAU: news, msgs, alerts)
and the CBOE Gold Index (GOX: news, msgs, alerts)
are a fraction below their highest point since mid-May of last year.

including a German television crew that is doing a documentary."

Gata Nut UIUO Heard through the Gata Grape Vines

Yes folks there i was, at Gata Bill's Le Metropole Cafe
sitting next to them gata grape vines Bill has strung up
so that when someone asks why the person d:ougak,
who always sits alone, is talking to himself all the time,
Bill can answer that on the other side of them vines
is a person you cannot see, but is listening to d:oug talk.

Now the above is just a ruse so that Bill does not have to admit
that he allows this gata nut into his Cafe. Its as E.C. mentioned,
as he remembered when i posted about me myself and i
as three equal and seperate and always "on" doug's that
are fully aware of the other two at all times.
(or)
doug The Barbaric and Terrible :o(
doug The Kind and Genteel :o)
doug The Caught in the Middle :o|
(and)
all 3 of me (or) none of me's remember the why or what
of that required to initiate this posting here of mine's.

ok, got it

Behind grape vines Bill had a radio tuned to Russia news station.

My Russian translator via my 2-way walkie-talkie listened
and spoke to me what was said, as follows.

Russian gold region worried production set to fall.

... at a conference of gold industry bosses in Russia's Far Eastern
Amur Region have appealed to the government for help in connection
with a possible sharp reduction in gold production. [the]Amur Region
produced a record 13 tonnes of gold in the 2001 season...
But placer gold reserves in the Region are becoming depleted
and the Russian Ministry of Natural Resources has been slow
to issue licences to explore new deposits. "If geological exploration
is not permitted very soon, gold production will fall significantly
in as little as two years," Starkov said. Publication date: 2002-02-03
