Gold Stock Pressure, With Or Without Gold Prices (EGO, RGLD, IAG, GSS, GLD, GDX, ABX)

gold-image4We covered last weekend about how the $1,000.00 gold was at an inflection point and looking as though it was either poised to pop to $1,200.00 on the speculation of fear or that it was likely to fall back towards $800.00 as reality prevails as the world didn’t flatten and proceed to roll off the edge into the abyss.  What is interesting is that even as gold was hitting highs, many of the miners, particularly the speculative miners, were well under highs and have seen even worse pressure this week on gold’s pullback.

Eldorado Gold (EGO): Two Views: Big Difference

Eldorado Gold (EGO) is being pilloried because a court shut one of its mines in Turkey due to potential environmental problems. The company’s shares are down 25% today to $5.

So, EGO is a "buy"?

Probably not.
