rare earth sentiment tone for friday, page-20

Jan, I think you're missing my point. I'm simply saying that there is no volume behind these price movements (read all the propaganda pieces, they pretty much all have the same disclaimer "little sales activity") and therefore their sustainability remains in question.

While I'm quietly confident I view the current flurry of positive press as the precursor to the beginning of the serious battle beginning next month.

This is not a little flutter at the races on a wing and a prayer as some seem to view it, I've got half a large parked so I want to see something sustainable based on true demand.

RE market's been in the twilight zone for years, I want to see what shape it's in at sunrise.
