Gary, the XAU is still well below last May's values at which time POG was only $310. kitconet.com This shows how far the gold shares had run up in advance of gold's subsequent rise. Anyway, as you say, gold shares are quite steady notwithstanding the recent fall in the POG. Here's a one week chart of the XAU: ichart.yahoo.com^xau There may be some good news coming as regards the gold price --- the lease rates are going up a bit.
