Well, you have made your re entry quite eventful. Just focusing on Palladium: as you know the price volatility over the past few years has been staggering, from over $1000 down to $150 or so. now around $270. Do you think that palladium usage, displacing platinum, justifies much higher prices? As I understand it, supplies are plentiful and Stillwater, the main US miner has done a poor marketing job.

There are far more "dollar bugs" than gold bugs. And I know which has been the better performer historically.

I responded to your suggestion that we look at palladium instead of gold. When I went to the palladium chart, I saw exactly what you referred to:risk to reward. But there were no options and my pockets weren't deep enough to go long the commodity. However, I did pick up 10 PAL Jun 7.5 calls for 80 cents. THANK YOU. Is there a better way to play palladium for us poor folk in the future?
