Al, this is not an optimistic picture for the gold price in the short-term. treasurestatefutures.com In fact, I would not be surprised, after it's recent very sharp falls, to see the USD mounting a technical "recovery" of sorts. treasurestatefutures.com In fact, the way the stockmarket shrugged off the $2bn profit "adjustment" by Xerox on Friday adds to my opinion that the markets, generally (ie USD and Dow), are now able to digest/ignore bad news. It won't be long before we are being told of the amazing "recovery" being made by the US economy. It looks like the best thing for us to do is to close the shop and go on vacation for a while. Also, I think it's necessary to mention again that, because of my own personal position, I would rather hold gold shares which are going down than other South African shares which may not be.
