Good to hear you are doing well. Golds low in december is unimportant because it has more to do with tax loss selling than any fundamental weakness. I think there is too much support at the chart lows where bargain hunters show up.

I don't follow the Euro other than watching the USDX strength ebb and flow around the highs. Clive Maund has an interesting take that when the global economy tanks money will rush to the \USD. CAD is in the toilet and with the current governments i\ don't expect a strong CAD because our exporters benefit from the exchange differential. In fact thats the only thing keeping us alive. We've had huge job losses, huge.
