Hello all, I mostly lurk in the woodshed and check the slider den for good solid analysis and opins. Many thanks to nspolar, patron, tooearly, bubble, the sweet Eva, and ofcourse the geezer. I suppose I am not the only lurker who enjoy these threads. Y'all aught to pipe in once in a while. I suppose we all read www.jsmineset.com... yes...? but no one mentions Jim's favorite rgld? Some comments in today's note are particularly noteworthy that being the COT. www.jsmineset.com ....which should propel gold through the March high, basis December, and allow the floor to go after those buy stops above the gold market. There is no doubt those stops are there. I know it and if I know it the entire floor knows it, including COT, which will try to prevent the market from reaching that region or they know they are in for a real thumping. According to the latest Commitments data, there are still over 40,000 funds on the short side of this gold market and they are getting eaten alive. Many of those stops belong to them and with that many floor traders must be salivating at the prospect of touching them off. Looks to me best to be long and strong... You in now slider? or missing this move? Long MNG at 1.38 and .73 in may my other postions are now mostly positive.

It is amazing and very disheartening to me that people are using this tragedy to meet their own psychological needs to hate. Katrina caused the suffering not any one man. To make political hay from this nightmare is just beyond the pale. Message 21680538 Message 21671916 Thanks again for your courage, Slider. It takes guts to go against the party line.

Slide, Whats your thoughts on OSX movement the last 2 weeks? While crude topped out at 70+ and has had a week of downward action the OSX consolidated gains frm last week and today had a total disconnect with Crude. The news from IEA for the second time in 3 Months has been negative saying demand is slowing so they lowered their consumption numbers. I also read that article from Chevron CEO saying that 50-70 BBL is not sustainable probably based on demand destruction at those numbers. But what I found interesting, is OSX was rather weak going into Katrina, and actually looked like it wanted that 15-20% correction, then Katrina put a temp floor under crude and osx took off. But as Crude corrected OSX continued its move to the double top area of 174, whats your thoughts on the index if we have seen the top for now in Crude? That 200dma always gets a kiss from the longs on the way down when we have a correction in osx. If we are in a correction for oil and it starts to show up in the weekly data, could we have seen the top on friday? Thats how I am thinking, and I just came off of 15+ points on the downside in the housing stocks (hov) and I am studying the possibility of severe swing to the south for the OSX. From where Crude closed I would not be surprised if what we saw friday in the OSX was a blow off top. On the other hand the valuations on some of these Service stocks (HAL) and some of these drillers (do, rig, ne) are just so far from any past valuation or past price. I went all the way back to 97, and when we corrected then it was fast and painful, the same for 2000-2001. Thanks for any reply

Powerful. Well written. Thank you. There is a very good "profit margin" in the constant preaching and drum-beat of hate and intolerance in this society.

Well said. I also believe we've gotten a glimpse of the social unrest in our future should economic times become really difficult (1930's). Our great country is in trouble. Prepare to protect yourself and your property.

Slider, well said. Its an incredible contrast as to the generosity of people vs the race aspect. An incredible outflow of generosity and sympathy from regular folk to all that paid no bias to color or race. But the people who played this race card show the ugly side of society that still exists. So much good, so little bad. But unfortunately they each draw equal attention.
