RE: hahah good call tonig - Here's another good article on the current ugly bear mkt in the PM miners.

If you look at the 2nd CDNX chart you see the massive rally it went from below 800 in the 2008 crash up to 2450 in around mar/apr 2011. During that time, ORV and most of the miners had a massive rally, we went from around 60cents up to $3.97 (if i remember).
The current bear mkt is 22 months long, and hopefully we're nearing the end of this cyclical bear so we can continue with teh secular bull! Perhaps 2013 will be the breakout year for gold/silver/and the shares! Silver has been in consolidation since last apr (?) and gold's been consolidating since last Aug. Maybe early 2013 will mark the turning point. =)
