Re Puplava: His comments regarding using dividend yield for valuation purposes are undersupported. IMHO there was a fundamental shift in corporate dividend philosophy away from paying dividends. In order to support his contention, he needs to assess corporate dividend paying ABILITY past and present. He may still be on the mark, but he needs to address this. Regarding Gold/Silver--interesting that Prechter advocates avoiding Gold/Silver too, in addition to stocks. His contention is that deflation will impair their value too. Prechter is an advocate of cash. Puplava must believe that the US will avoid deflation at all cost. It seems that the prospects for deflation and its impact on Gold are avoided by Gold Bugs. Andy
