Well, guess I'm timing it!! I think we are hitting at least a short term top on both gold and gold stocks.

Do not like Commecials getting short again so much in a single week. Unlike prior years Central Bank Gold Sales Jan YTD, are way behind schedule. We are likely to see some significant sales to rattle the market, IMO. Although Central Banks unlikely to meet their 500 tonne goal this year, they will likely hit at least 450 tonnes.

FWIW, I still have 18% of my portfolio in gold stocks, so I am not exactly under invested in the sector...

Right now I like US & Canadian T-bonds and cash, thank you very much. Sold a bit of my USO and DBO oil funds today as well. US T Bond 5% yield is just fine with me during tax season, makes it much more relaxing.

As for gold $800, I hope gold hits and maintains $850 so my AAU rights and warrants into CKG stock bear some torque. Sold just a bit of my EPM as well at C$.95 the other day. Exercised my AUY warrants acquired in PP and sold deep Jan 08 covered calls. My 2 largest gold stock positions now are AAU/CKG and EPM. Have a smathering left of AGI, KGI and EDV which are so low cost I can't stand paying capgains.

Good luck, am glad to see you remain bullish on gold stocks and even more glad to see most of those political posts have ceased...

I'm also speculating that the fed will reduces rates as opposed to raising them.
dang ...
can not really argue with you based on the charts ...
other than trend since dec continues ~ but sure seems like a turn as well though ...
yields at resistance

bonds at a confluence of channel support lines and
just under resistance ~ going to do a hammer kind of move back up through broken support ??? broke sept and oct lows on price spread but since then has not followed thru down just clustering going sideways ~ would be the place for a turn if one was coming it seem.s
