Just came across this article ...evan a few days old it is interesting.....

>>>Mr. Coxe suggests monitoring the KBW Bank Index, a barometer that measures the big U.S. banking stocks.

“When that index turns up decisively, which should happen just before the economists realize that things are getting better, then I think that’s the point at which gold will really outperform,” he said. <<<

Michael,
"..getting my head around it.."

..me, too ; I have a starter position but am inclined to take profits:

a) gold is clearly moving (finally!) and several small/mid-tier producers like San Gold (SGR.V), Richmont (RIC) and even Yamana(AUY) still offer excellent value and I feel prepared in the PM space

b)some argue that it took years before rates went up on Japanese bonds...(and I'm a novice in the bond arena)..

thanks for your thoughts

regards,
Shakes
