George, my 2 cents on the Euro "solution": - Gold goes down because of the new "financial stability" (lol) - Gold explorers (and producers) continue to suffer. Now it will be PoG related, whereas for the past months it was the market uncertainty (lol) - the "American Desaster" will become a focus of the markets (because in reality it's much worse than the European situation), a new reason for continued volatility and instability Happy investing FANTOMAS
