Scruffy, I really think that you might be on to something here. The cartel often signals precious metal short selling by taking down the stocks ahead of the LBMarket and CFT market action. Sometimes when the gold/silver shorting isn't working they will revert to Plan B and take down the precious metal stocks. I haven't looked at the reverse signals prior to you mentioning it but would like to think the greedy @%&()s are buying pm stocks and options to benefit after options close Tuesday and gold and silver starts to climb again. Based on todays positive action in the pm stocks while the Cartel is still controlling the pm markets, we could see some dramatic increases in pm share prices next Wednesday.

The only concern I have is that JP Morgan is in such complete control of the silver market that they may try and keep prices down until the end May in order to allow them to cover more shorts.
