The value of common stocks relative to Gold is about to accelerate in the opposite direction the Larry Kudlow and Jimmy Jack Cramer crowd are expecting.

Gold went higher and won the clash of the titans match against king Dollar today, busting over $1200. Gold stocks managed to tread water and close in positive territory as a group, an amazing accomplishment in light of the carnage today.
