All a bit sobering isnt it, of the gold stocks i hold the quarterlies of avo, axm, ngf, mun and sbm left me shaking my head, avo wont even tell the market what it actually costs to produce but i have noted the selling into any strength for months now, lots gold bugs who hold gold shares have been in the belief that gold at 1500$ aussie an oz would be a bonanza for our gold shares even if the market falls further, maybe we need to keep one foot on the floor, i hold igr and hope it can come through as a low cost producer but for many others out there thier performance has been very ordinary.
