the beast also threw up all over the gold bugs I was just looking at the XAU 5-year chart, wondering if I'll get my long-awaited revisit to the 2000-2003 support trend line. Hoping to get back into NEM at ~33, after having sold it to you (way too early) at 41 last fall.

It wasn't the market that swung the oil prices but some old politicians seating in the US senate. Even without that bunch of sexagenarians swinging it, it is not the market that swings oil prices, but the OPEP cartel. As you said there's no real economy, I add: there's no real market, Jay! The only thing that exists, for sure, is wayo. Plots to help one's case dressed up, by the media, as events related to market. And people believe in them!! That's why they are possible. Look those people talking about windmills as examples of changes in the energy matrix. These are no more than tokens to get Greens, environmentalists and other assorted weirdoes quiet, and to make the annual reports of the energy companies PC. If everybody was like me, wayo wasn't feasible and the market would work.

Friday's report ; Sold the remaining shares of my ISE (ISEC ) @ 9.86 left quite a bit on the table but still only paid 1.70 ...This morning I got back from my wanderings...some places weren't what they were cracked up to be. <<Do not get more alarmed ;0)>> Yeah, well I'm plenty alarmed anyway ( but for different reasons than yourself ) so history tells me that we've seen the bottom. I'm well over 50% cash and that's not counting the money I've put in the bank to pay my 2003 tax bill and first quarterly payment. <<GDP growth in the absence of productive employment gain is a faster appointment to economic hell.>> I dunno about that we've had good mkts with higher unemployment than we do now. Still holding DPW ,INTN and CGN
