i know Jipangu's been snapping up mining shares left and right...the Japanese also had a hand in the '93 run. the nice thing about the gold market is that it is both small and full of lopsided (bearish) positions...it won't take much money to move it.

>>"When U.S. stocks crashed in 1929, prices of gold and shares in gold mining companies soared, and the same thing is about to happen again," he said.<< Curious assertion. Not true about the price of gold, at least not in the US, it was set by law, at about $20/ounce. In 1934, Roosevelt raised the price to $35/ounce in hopes of inflating the economy out of depression. Which gold mining companies were trading back then?
