If everybody wakes up tomorrow and found that gold took off over night and the price again went to a new high, all the gold stocks would follow and this negativity in the markets would momentarily disappear as the prices would go up with the gold trend. The market is a funny thing.......it turns on a dime and you will be left scratching your head, just remember that the stock you felt comfortable with a week ago is still the same stock......nothing has changed, the company is still the same, with the same goals and accomplishments still intact!
