Rarebird, I went to the pool at noon yesterday and also made a hard decision. Read my PM to you. JR

Perhaps the time frame is the issue. The commercials can move in and out quickly. Maybe they think dollar oversold and will rally briefly and positioning to take advantage of that. I am a believer and have been for at least the last six months that a major gold bull is brewing. Little joe

it's not just the buck for me -- that's important and like you, I believe it has reversed a long term trend, but is due for a correction up short-term. What I smell is the potential for a larger general loss of confidence in financial systems -- I know this puts me on the fringe, even here, but that's OK. A couple of years ago I had a few gold stocks -- just as a hedge -- now they are my largest position -- something I never would have considered before, but that's where I am at.
