Larry, Thank you very much. I wasn't aware of CEF on the AMAX. That would sure be a neat way to play the metal. Looking at the chart, it seems that the reversal must have been the effect of silver and some improvement in gold. Holding the metal gives me a good feeling, but I understand that the mining stocks are the highly leveraged proxy on the metal and have more potential for gain (or loss <VBG>). Maybe a little physical metal (held as CEF) makes some sense? I hope you will reconsider your affiliation as lurker and actively post. Maybe you could give us a weekly update on the Barron's index? Finding the gold stocks and funds are a part of the profit formula, but market timing is the tough part IMO. Thanks again.
