Pro-Life--A little more volume would be nice, but i read about the big bull in US stocks that got going in August 1982. Light volume with a nice up moves mean the manipulators have shaken out the weak holders and the bearish case is still implanted in potential investors. So, weak volume is not always a bad sign, especially in these dishonest politician times. In 1982 the first few days were met with speculation and when the volume came in Joe Granville called it a sucker rally.
Point 2. I'm reading more about potential "Windfall Profit Taxes" on gold and silver if it really soars. Yes, food commodities could get such a tax, but less likely since there is not the speculative volume as gold and silver an much lower profile.
Yes, nice day on the chart, lots of Green bars in September/October.
