Gold or SAND? Looking at the respective prices of gold vs SAND since Jun 9, 2010 (when Sandstorm was first available OTC in the US is very interesting. Using the London PM gold fix, gold was at 1233.50 and closed Friday at 1667. From Jun 9 through YE 2010, SAND was +28.6% vs gold +13.9%. In 2011, SAND was +48.1% vs gold +8.9%. And so far this year, SAND is +62.8% vs gold +8.9%. Thousands of "investors", "speculators", and even central banks are buying gold. Well, I'm just holding and buying SAND. If physical gold (+35.1% in the last 26 1/2 months) is beautiful, what would you call SAND (+210.1%) over the same period? GL
