Today, the 29th, commodies moved up strongly suggesting the recognition of inflationary pressures are growing in world mkts. The recent weakness in the dollar/euro/JPY are not showing much affect on gold as yet so far as I can tell. Commodies have in the past been an excellent precurser of moves in gold stocks and the metal. My fuzzy logic model is indicating a move in Gold is now 80% probable. I can only guess size of the move, but my short experience with the model suggests 10-15% is possible given recent history. Anyone else looking for a substantial move?

Howdy islander, Well, the metals are all going nuts today with the dollar sliding, particularly against the yen. Gold's up 4.40, silver +.08 and platinum is up above 700 again. I'm still 30% long in the metals with a bent towards silver. Mostly RYPMX, but with holdings in GG, GLG, BGO, DROOY and for silver PAAS, CDE and SIL. I was planning to reduce if it broke down below 375, but as it turns out, yesterday was a good day and today is looking even better. best, rono
