purely evil. I believe he is deliberately trying to change USA from a representative republic into a marxist state ruled by a dictator. General comments: TA is indicating Platinum and silver will out-perform gold for next 3 weeks. Energy stocks should out-perform other commodity stocks in short and intermediate term i.e. up to about second week of May. Several commodity stocks are showing high levels of shorting: Most notably: ENB, AUY, NGD, HSE:CA, LUN:CA, LEG:CA. All of these stocks indicate probable rise in next few months due to short covering. (AUY is showing very high d/dt of shorting. i.e. anomalously quick/sudden massive shorting.) As far as I know I'm one of very few people that track rate of change of parameters. In the case of AUY, this is a flag, which could mean several different things: e.g. As yet unreported problems with an insider dump. A large entity, such as a hedge fund doing a major effort to drive the price down. I don't know the real cause, just the fact there was quick large sorting flagged by my program. Big Al, Sorry for longer post. I did want to point out to you the very large short position on Enbridge (over 30 million shares shorted) which I don't own but know you do, but I will probably buy on Tuesday. cfs: Are you saying Aurcana is a buy? I agree, not only buy on technicals, but continue to accumulate even if it means cost average increase based on fundamentals.
