••Precious Metal Equities continue to lead the way regarding returns on investments. At this time, I hesitate to consider the shiny stuff a rational or safe place to put my money. A friend recently suggested to me that gold could go as high as two thousand dollars. I personally feel gold prices are inflated and will drop to under one thousand before reaching the two thousand buck level.
