Claude: Today's move in gold shows just what might happen to some of the exploration stocks when the really big move comes! A few things I noticed, due to a rise of only about 2% in the POG.... - BGI -- Up 16% on the day - CBD -- Up 22% on a volume of 60,000 shares - FGX -- Not up much, but the spread has increased to $6.01 -> $6.43 :^) - GEO -- Intraday move from a low of $0.22 to close at $0.27, on a volume of 166,000 - MR -- Up 10% on 56,000 volume -- Spead now $1.07 to $1.15. Imagine what they'll do if gold goes up by 10 or 20%. The sleeper for me is still SWG, with none traded today. Now that it's just below $3.00 and therefore not marginable, it could be that some of the funds are not allowed to buy it. But this could change very quickly. It's frustrating to hold such a high quality stock that's doing so little -- but this is one for the long term IMO. Patience, Howy, patience... <g> Let's see if there's any follow-through tomorrow. Even the Japanese Yen was up sharply against the dollar today, despite the economic meltdown in Japan! Is the worm finally turning....? Regards, Howy
