***MARKET RETURNS YEAR TO DATE***

Note how GLD beats all major averages...

GLD (i.e. $GOLD): +12.10% (and that's conservative, $GOLD actually gained more!)
Russell 2000: +5.10%
S&P 500: +4.87%
Nasdaq Composite: +3.92%
Dow Jones Industrials Average: +.91%

And for what it's worth, the HUI has gained +18.5% year to date, of course energy and the XLE gained +44.49% year to date, so they'll likely go in the books barring any end of year collapse as this year's biggest winning sector.
