Yes, but I think that today's moves have little to do with the nature of the stocks themselves but with a move on quality commodities. Gold and silver are up, they are indicators for the remaining metals which in total are a good barometer of the global economy ( note I said global and not USA).

As for Noront:
"PGE's not even really being considered in valuation."

Actually AFTER copper they are not. I keep harping about copper in the Eagle's Nest with all of you here but you all are still ignoring these rants.

With Glorieux's post earlier about value, he has copper contributing 14% of $/ton, about 50% more ( I posted months ago 10-30% ) than either platinum (10%) or palladium (9%) BUT little is said about it. Yes it is small next to nickel but they are also, yet all I see mentioned besides nickel and chromium are platinum and palladium.
Ok, I agree they are glory metals while copper is debatable if it belongs in the semi-precious category, but $ are $ no matter how they come.
Give all the credit where due.
If you can not notice all your chickens than how can you count them.
