There are forces playing that are bigger than just the commodity markets. I am pretty convinced there's a dollar intervention going on to drive commodity prices down and thereby reducing inflation levels. This however will be temporary and should not affect junior miners. Most have been heavily punished and this just seems to be a bottom spike in commodities. I think we'll see buyers rushing into metals pretty soon again.

A similar downside breakout happened end 2006 (see: http://www.jsmineset.com/cwsimages/i... ). No worries, the junior miners won't suffer any more than they've already done. and if they will, accumulate for obvious reasons. You know what the drilling results are, why worry about metals prices going down a bit...
