<<They will discover them(gold stocks) eventually, but that will be the time to sell, cause gold will be = to Dow Jones then>> Really, at some level, we must admit Bob Johnson is slightly right - or to say it better, his description of is somehow somewhat near correct. Gold is only in part an investment, Gold is as well a part insurance, and nothing less than a part *religion. Thus those very factors that prevent Wall Street from allowing gold a place on their view finder are the same factors which will make it win - but win slowly. The current investment generation will never again fully believe the prior Wall Street mantra that "nothing should be put into gold". Many more people are - on their own - diversifying a small percentage into gold & and questioning Wall Street.. People aren't sold Gold as an investment, they are converted to the religion of gold - and for some this is only a partial or "reformed" conversion, while with others, evangelists are reborn in The Faith* and some are even joining the orthodox version of The Religion of Gold. Let Wall Street remain salesmen of Investments, I prefer converts & apostles! Yes, Apostles are the answer - today each bug should convert one person - who will in turn convert several more, who will in turn convert several more. But then Bob might might call the practice "infecting" rather than "converting"......
