I remember back in the 1980s a NYC friend of mine described Battery Park City as a place where Wall Street types kept their mistresses. A short convenient distance to hustle over for a noon-time quickie.
Lot of gold mining company earnings released in the past few days, good summary at http://www.goldalert.com/gold_price_blog .php. This is one of the best performing sectors this year, although they have definitely underperformed the past few weeks. But going forward I think the gold price will remain strong and benefit these companies because of the Fed’s easy monetary policies.
