Drnols, I'm not sure you are correct, gold and EUR/USD ar more or less in the same place as they were in in Dec 07 , I dont follow that gold isnt keeping up with the dollar? I cant say I am fustrated at all with the performance of gold at the moment, an oz of gold is worth more today then any time in 07 or the first half of 08, you can buy more property and more commodities with your oz of gold. don't be obsessed with the nominal price. ;-)
