That title pretty much sizes up where we are in transiting to the New Year. As was the case in 2013 and 2014, Gold throughout 2015 continued to be outed, disparaged and impugned; we now see 2016 as the year the general equities markets get...
'Tis quite the question, that title, with but four trading days in the balance for 2015. Of late, Gold is giving -- the appearance anyway -- of at least basing for year's end into which we are racing. To say nothing of the fact 'tis been...
