Thanks, Kim & Wolfster. Until September, Venture was comfortably up for the year. I was a bit surprised by the speed and extent of September's declince, but I've learned to respect technical breakdowns and weak internals.
On the positive side, this sets up the possibility of a good opportunity in the juniors fairly soon. But I'll wait for the internals to improve before stepping back in - all North American markets have weak internals right now.
