Besides NG I find the GDX chart pretty impressive.

And that's just the bigger stuff, there are many more such as smaller local area chains bankrupt, closing stores. The Boscov's chain started out at Reading PA when I was a kid, grew with the area, I think they just opened 10 stores last year, now they are closing them, Linens & Things another not on your list:

With the dollar soaring, p metals falling, huge bank losses increasing and numerous closings/bankruptcy filings, sure is sounding the alarm bells. I've been running 75% cash, 25% high dividend stock and NO NRS stocks for much of the summer, which has worked well for just holding and not trading (too busy with other projects), but getting to be a rough ride and may have to take profits, go all the way to cash and wait for ole yeller to ...

"Come to PaPa"

As for busy, there is a new girl in my life, she's mostly black and maybe part American Indian, as she has black feet. Actually four of them feet she has, but she is actually German, occupation is a Shepherd, even though her parents do K-9 work.

But don't get all excited, although she is only 12 weeks old, she is already spoken for by our now fully grown male GSD who is all of 2 yrs and a bit. Pups are planned in the future (18 months) and will be quite expensive out of world renown bloodlines, so save your dubloons, gggg.
