RE: strange actI created a watchlist of silver stocks starting at $silver recent low of Dec 21, 2007. While SLV and CEF representing physical have shot up 30%, the mining stocks are lagging badly. So much for leverage. Silverstone and Aurcana (I own both) have at least gone up 75% of the price of silver. Most juniors and most of the prior years leaders have been crushed. (SIL, SSRI, PAAS, SLW)
