[RT] Re: BACK UP THE TRUCK ON GOLD

Doug may be right in the long run but i think there is 
some pain coming to gold bugs over the intermediate term.

I'm short NEM after being long other gold mining stocks 
off and on for the last year or so. The best you can say 
about these charts is that they are weak. If NEM breaks to 
a new low it should be very safe to short with a stop at 
the current swing high.
