Thanks strike. I tried a few other indexes in your chart just to see what they look like:

TSX

S&P 500

http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=$SP...

Nasdaq Composite

http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=$CO...

and The DOW Composite

it seems they are all trending downwards but certainly the Juniors have been hardest hit. It's almost like somebody is sending a message to the those who are more speculative (looking for greater profits with the greater risk). The message seems to be: If you think you can make some big money with gold we are going to do whatever we can scare you away from that. Don't forget, these penny stocks are also more popular with the "average Joe" who wants to own alot of shares at a low price...and pennies are that avenue. If they can scare the pants off of Joe in order to create a fear of gold they will be successful. I welcome the challenge. (grin)

I agree, TDC has a lot of catching up to do and when it does I think it will happen pretty darn quick.

PS: Heading out for the weekend and won't be near a computer so have a good weekend everyone
