Having just bought a bunch near a dime above the top of the gap [aaargh], what i'm doing is replacing them with ones bought now at thirty cents cheaper ... plus a few more, because you just get more for the nickels down here ... being a Hughes-McDonald production in the silver business at this time, and doing fairly well at it, as H-McD productions tend to do, i think friday's dumpola was an aberration that had nothing to do with the company's prospects, therefore the gap should fill, and fill soon Gap theory is all hooey of course ... except for the fact that it works more than it doesn't, possibly just because too many folks believe the hooey ... hard to say, doesn't matter imho ... EC just mentioned scm.v, it's on my list and i will have an order in to catch it just above the filling of its gap-up earlier this year [at 1.50ish?] ... hmm, it's getting close now i see, the other day it was over 2.00] .... most gaps tend to fill unless there's a damn good reason for them not to do so [like bankruptcy for instance, there's likely quite a few gap-downs still open due to that, lol] .... here's a page from stockcharts but it doesn't stress the fillings which to me are what's relevant [question is imho -Will the gap fill, if so how soon?] - stockcharts.com On zinc in roofing [post of yours this morning] - there is also zinc in a roof of losa, as the mesh reinforcing is galvanised too .... so you don't build a roof in México without zinc, to my knowledge, but with losa it would be a lot less .... one of the ways of doing losa, the best way in the opinion of a builder in the family, is to do it in the same way that a ferrocement boat is built, start with a thin ceiling for the room below, two inches or so, fine cement thoroughly pressed into two meshes, one finer and lighter below the heavier one, just barely separated ... then pour on top three inches or so, top mesh being optional, and lighter if used ... concrete is strong against compression, real weak against tension, steel does the tension work ... guys who do losa well are the best paid of all construction trades, any monkey can nail on the lámina, done it myself, where with losa i just carry the mortar and keep the mason's beer shaded for him ... there will be tonnes of zinc used just in our little area in the next while, lots of houses to be built, people's kids get married and want their own, or the parents want them to get their own, whichever lol .... can't see where much new supply is going to come from, all the Metallines and Wolfdens together don't add up to very much ... cheers
