which is my (perhaps-erroneous?) impression of Sinclair.
==============================================================

Perhaps erroneous?
Fer shure.....
At least to my way of thinking. <g>
I think it really depends on one's timeframe(s) and Sinclair has been most vocal w/r to his short and long term views and has often recommended short termers cash in some chips and play for the pullback.
The b/l here is that he is undauntingly bullish on gold. He's entitled, wouldn't you agree? From what I can determine, he wasn't bullish 5 years ago, but the times, they are a changing and I've heard that, in private, he speaks freely of four digit gold prices by 2008. If this is so, Then I commend his not ever mentioning it in his missives. I really dislike blatant hype of the sort that, imo, BB is consciously hawking.
Many people don't care for Jim Sinclair, and I understand that very well, but to dismiss him out of hand is, imo, a mistaken view.
He's been in the 'business' forever and, imo, one doesn't survive, much less thrive, in that world for 50 years without having a decent combination of savvy and contacts at one's call.
And no, I'm not sleeping with him!!! <ggg>
Good talkin' to you, little fella' <VBG>
best wishes,
