GOLD: This certainly would be a logical spot for the metal to take a breather: stockcharts.com[w,a]daclyiay[d19800101,20060101][pc9!c13!f][vc60][iLa4,9,5!Lh5,5]&pref=G Didn't realize that we were up against these loooooong-term resistance levels. BC

"In short, by outlawing normal bear markets the stage is being set for a super grizzly that no amount of printing will be able to prevent." Seems likely. Only question is what is the event that causes China to stop lending, US consumers to stop spending or a headline making crash in a specific housing market. I think small cap stocks except in the strongest performing sectors staged an amazing collapse the first part of 2005 perhaps in anticipation of 2005 being a repeat of 1973. It didn't turn out to be the case. It will be interesting to see how the broad stock market acts when we get into 2006.

>>The strong bull move in gold (the one asset the powers that be do not want to see climbing) is signalling serious trouble ahead IMHO.>> Not necessarily. As usual, I think you are overreacting and trying to make a case for the Bear. It's good that many nations are finally diversifying their reserves and buying Gold. There is excessive liquidity out there desperately looking for a good return. That's what yesterday's equity and gold rally was all about. Plus, there is inflation out there. I'm looking forward to a Bernanke Fed. Markets should be fun and wild. Might surprise a lot of people, including myself.
