USD weakness; goldminers up, Mon., May 23, 2005, 4:58 PM
Today with the Dow up +51 and Nasdaq up +10, the big story was that the USD was weak, and goldminers were strong.


Note that even as the GLD gold bullion index was down slightly, likely causing Kudlow to rant on tonight, it was a day where 25 of 25 of the goldminers on my monitor were up on the day, some very strongly.
And that in my books is 100 pct.

P.S. It's now 5:10pm; the Kudlow Comedy Show was led today with the headline: "Tech Stocks Surge".
Please read the chart above and ask yourself how Kudlow gets away with his crap. As a result, I'm now awarding Larry the "Clown of the Month Award".

And remember the first rule of A Clown's Code of Ethics:
"I will keep my acts, performance and behavior in good taste while I am in costume and makeup. I will remember at all times, that I have been accepted as a member of the clown club to provide others, principally children, with clean clown comedy entertainment. I will remember that a good clown entertains others by making fun of himself or herself and not at the expense or embarrassment of others."

Discourse
Bill - You're too intelligent for such mediocre rantings about other people. Why do you demean your good name through belittlement and mockery of others? Is there any way to make your case on a higher road?
Matthew 7:1-5 There we read:
«Judge not, that you be not judged. For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you. And why do you look at the speck in your brother's eye, but do not consider the plank in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, «Let me remove the speck from your eye;» and look, a plank is in your eye? Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye.»
Many, instead of looking at what the Lord has made us to be in Christ, we are looking at the weak points, at the «specks» each one of us carries. Instead of seeing our own weaknesses, that sometimes may be whole planks, we are pointing at the specks of the others…… Probably because in our own eyes we are perfect, as perfect was in his eyes the Pharisee of Luke 18:
Luke 18:9-14
«Also He spoke this parable to those who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, «God, I thank you that I am not like other men – extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector. I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I possess.» And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, «God be merciful to me a sinner!» I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled. And he who humbles himself will be exalted»
Keep doing your job well and honorably.
All the best.

Now there's a real bozo. Attribution to a Dutch Master, I'd say.
