Well Thanx Doug I guess you noticed that the YBZ thread was both started and.. discussed by myself in a rather lonely mood :-) Funny how certain plays go unnoticed for ever and then they take off. I am rather embarrassed that I was telling people to buy FNV at 20 cents - but at least I put my money where my big mouth was and lost a few bucks :-) The day before Xmas there was 150,000 shares of YBZ for sale at 3 cents and I was too broke to buy any :-( Funny life at the best of times - when things click they click - but they are still quite "funny". I try to keep away from the evil one and cling to what is right with some limited success. YBZ may pop before the end of the year. The gold sector has done well - we are at a critical point however in my opinion. Gold could retrace and lose interest - but - I am thinking that in spite of the fact that almost everyone is hot on Gold that the market has been gaining ground slower than most fake outs - that gives me confidence that it may continue - but it is hard to tell right now. I am thinking that exploration and mining has been through enough of a bad spell to do better. General market has lost a lot of players who had never tasted anything other than a BULL market and will not gain ground at the insane rate that we saw in spring 2000 for a very long time. Bear is not confirmed as being over and it may be possible that we see even lower prices but the Monthly charts on the DOW look positive short term at least. I was originally attracted to markets when Gold was humming. I actually bought Gold before I realized that was likely the worst way to play gold but Oh well - those were the daze. Later... Don't post this one anywhere ( not a recommendation ) but I also have a huge position in SAG
