Yes I am sorry one day late but better then never. I agree with most that ECU should as well gold and silver have a banner year in 2010. Inflation will have to occur especialy if there are good resulte during the holiday season for retailers. This means they will have to up there inventories and silver should look very good as companies will be looking for silver that is almost depleted at this point and time. Take into account the stimulas package that will have to cost more than anticipated as there will be more jobless people until they apportoin money to school or incorporate some type of job stimulas and bang here comes inflation. Although I fear for many who are not prepared to weather the storm this will have to happen to close the gaps between neighboring countries around the world. I want to ty all for your wisdom, support, and humor during the last year. May the Good Lord enlighten you and may all have a Merry Christmas.
