The correlation trade is self evident, the dollar has been rising for 4 months and the grinding lower for the past 3 months. I don't expect much of a change in April, based on last year's performance. Banks are where I want to be right now.

Unless one fears a total collapse of the financial system itself, investing in a few well run mining companies could deliver not only the run up in gold prices but also potential for added benefit from good management. Raw gold thus appears rather limited in dimensions. But, I for one have not yet completely grasped the rationale for gold. Some recommend holding physicals while some recommend a certificate form. However, should the world ever come to an abrupt halt, what kind of scenarios should one assume for physical safety or contracts, or for a uniform application of the law? Could the tax policy remain unchanged? What I have come across so far assume that everything else remains the same, which is hard to digest. regards dinesh
