Taking a peek at the XAU it looks to have bottomed at the $42 level late last year from a high of 155 Area back in the first half in 1996. It's been on a downward move since then and that, of course, goes perfectly with the "Strong Dollar" policy as discussed in the 2 part post you kindly posted earlier today. BTW Thank You for sharing that article!!!

Now if things work out as many are predicting for this fall, a market crash of some kind, then we should see the XAU peak out in the 70 - 80 area in the next 2 - 3 months I would think.

The real question is when will the dollar weaken to the point of crash? Meaning that the XAU and Gold, and probably all precious metals will go up and stay up for many years. Maybe the dollar has already switched it's trend and is heading down but is this the beginning of the dollar crash or are we 5 - 10 years early? It's the timing that is the crucial thing as always.

If the dollar bubble bursts, other currencies, and countries for that matter, that have depended on the dollar will have a hard time as well. Right now I could go to a city in Turkey and give a guy a dollar and he would take it. He understands it's "value". Would he even know what the british pound or Euro is? Same thing in Asia but can you do that with the Euro or another foreign curency? The dollar is global, much like english is, and a crash doesn't just effect the USA, it will have rammifications all over the globe.

P.S. Were you really still holding HGR and GAIT from years ago?

SLTI getting noticed lately
Smaller float and company showed profit last quarter. Truely a micro-cap.

Here's a few old gold posts from here... as usual we were way ahead, unfortunately they walked right past me...

Many stocks in the gold sector have been in the top 1/3 of their yearly range recently, I tell this to people and I get that eye roll. RGLD went through the old high like butter! XAU up over 2.5% today, a nice move..
Don't forget SWC, which I suggested was a great buy @25 now closing in on 27, but I think it will pull 35 soon enough.
A year or 2 back I mentioned HGR & GAIT, I never thought that GAIT would have a higher stock price than HGR, but it does..

I've been looking into some gold rats and they're looking very interesting to me. Most of the charts are coming out of nice long saucers. If this inflation thing you've been pounding about happens, am I correct to assume gold will be a good place to be?

Dig out that old gold mining list from a while back, that might be a good place to be in the coming months.
As I have said for months, the G-7 is creating money like crazy, and of more importance to US, the FED is increasing the money supply at the same rate they were 19 years ago, remember Jimmy Carter? The washout from this over-float will have to land somewhere...inflation, a lower dollar, micro & small cap stocks, etc., take your best guess....

...And I think the markets are starting to figure out that having the tax & spend gang in control of senate committees is not a good thing. Joe Lieberman chair of governmental affairs?
The repubs miscalculated this one on a massive scale.
So, I went short the dow & ndx yesterday, based on the deteriation I see coming in the near term as this gets worked out.
BTW, have you noticed how inflation is back in Germany?
As I said before, the G-7 is really pumping...
And Argentina got their rollover. Well, they are calling it a swap, (I call it bullsh*t)
