Bill Murphy writing in MIDAS tonight said he recently added to his large ECU position. Given the discussion earlier today about the Cartel wanting to hurt GATA, I don't know if this is good news or bad news.

"MIDAS note: while ECU Silver (ECUXF) has been a mistake thus far (in terms of comparative price action to some other silver stocks and physical silver), it remains my largest position by a fair margin. I fully expect ECU to make up for lost time in the months and year ahead and perform share-wise as I had expected years ago ... which is why I added to my position recently."
