<Canada was closed>

To be perfectly honest, the first thing I check for nowadays on my remaining Canadian holdings is the Loonie price. Up again slightly today. Made more money on that by far than the stocks. I consider the Toronto and Venture exchange almost non-existent at present. Do Canadians even participate in the market at all? I spotted another rather interesting name graduating to the Amex though: Apollo Gold. Might be worth a punt once it arrives. Had a question about their convert though? What are the conversion terms, toxic? And since Apollo is Denver based, is the convert tied in any way to the Resource Capital pirates in that neck of the woods, who raped and pillaged GEO on a toxic convert, a few years ago?

jim - FWIW, my $HUI interpretation is the break of a trading channel, for a target at this year's highs.

Nothing wrong cashing some profits, cashed my Swiss at open and wait for another entry <g>

OTOH, downbeat comments on the Dollar index could be a trap and YOU would be right.

Decisions, decisions,....
