As of today, I consider the issue of gold as "not a very effective store of wealth" as dead. I moved into large cap gold (mostly Kinross) last January with a lot of my money. Last week I was showing a slight profit on those shares. Now that money is firmly in the green. I wish I had moved all of my money into gold for the year. Sure, dollars would have been better. But gold is not doing bad at all.

As a restorer of wealth, all of the money I moved into Yamana and Silvercorp at the market low a month and a half ago is doing very, very well. Give it a month or two, and the pm juniors will be climbing again.
