I though the gold stocks and the common stocks would de couple, but looking at NEM's chart back in 2001 it had a high correlation.

One thing I would say however is that cycles seem to be getting mucho mucho faster. look at how quickly and rapidly the housing figures deteriorated. It reminds me of Chambers' comments about the capex cycle when he said we were just coasting along and then whooosh, out of the blue the pipe of orders just stopped. it does mean swifter policy response imo.

One or two UK stocks also holdig up, when normally they get hit hard when the metal gets hammered.

HUI still holding at the breakout point. Just a routine retest so far. Bullish compared to the drop in gold, so far. Dharma, I think the puppet masters will support the broads til the elections, somehow. Just like they cut prices on gas right on time. Welcome to the Soviet Union. Gotta go read Pravda now.

Bot SLV (124.5x), hanging right at the bottom of the rising channel. CDE looks like one more gap to go (5.15) ... moving up stop on SLV to break-even, could drop to 118-122 before it bottoms.

Senor has sold all longs as HUI 350 was broken. Relaxing with bueno profits.

BS is beautiful

Senor could reenter pronto if prices rally from here, but for now he is just watching. Willing to give up 1-2% to play it safe. Remember, Senor only trading gold and silver ETF's and GDX ETF.

NO BS

I was wondering if you were doing that. Playing it safe sometimes keeps one in the game being able to play. Sometimes the big moves are so obvious there seems less risk. Have to agree this is a little dubious. But that is the beast EH? Good move.
