I would also like to add that gold and silver is still being talked down by the financial analysts, although it is becoming of a rarity now as these morons can see their analysis go up in smoke [on a daily basis].
The public is still asleep at the wheel...when the fear really kicks in, the prices of gold will set your hair on fire. At that point, more investors will search for higher returns [cause they had missed the 'bullion' boat] and move into the precious metal stocks...
