I'm stunned - gold stocks non-performing again. THe only explanation I find is that 75 issue - it is the best to close XAU as close to 75 as possible today, to retire all 75 XAU puts and calls. Then we'll see what happens Monday.

if Barrick reduces their hedgebook by 15-20% this year,
and again next year

but gold spikes to #500 by end 2003

Barrick is history, bankrupt

the key is not the direction, but the magnitude of the movement in that direction

if JPMorgo reduces their derivative monster by 5-10% per year,
their exposure is not changed much

Barrick will be the first casualty in the Great Gold Game
every $10 move in gold means $125 million in losses for ABX
(if my mammory serves me)
