Fifty years ago, uranium fever hit Wall Street. It was then just a few years after a Navajo shepherd in New Mexico, by the name of Paddy Martinez, discovered "yellow rocks" on his property, mistaking them at first for gold. An avalanche of 1950s dollars (more valuable than the ones we have today) poured into mutual funds and uranium mining stocks, sending their values to astronomical levels. Get ready for déjà vu all over again, as Yogi Berra once said. Trend spotter, James Dines, editor of The Dines Letter, believes uranium mining stocks could become just as hot, or hotter, than the Internet stocks of the 1990s. (Editor's note: StockInterview.com interviewed James Dines on July 20, 2004, when he forecast a "buying panic in uranium." Since then, spot uranium (U3 08) prices have nearly doubled. Over the past 35 years, Dines has successfully predicted mega trends in gold, internet, palladium and uranium price movements). And now investors are chasing uranium mining stocks again.A look at industry leader, Cameco (NYSE: CCJ), which money manager Robert Mitchell called the "Saudi Arabia of uranium," shows a three-year gain of more than 700 percent. Over the past few years,...more

About four years ago I stumbled upon an Internet Site called Dxgold. Their premise at the time was "Gold-ebank is a secure gold backed payment transfer system and the gateway to DigotGold and DXSecure accounts."I saw "Gold" and my eyes lit up! I love the stuff. So I had a read through their site and found I could open an account and invest a minimum of $15 into a Portfolio. As I was really an Internet newbie at the time I didn´t want to risk more than this amount on something I knew nothing about. To cut a long story short, I put in my $15 and tried to figure out what to do. At that time Dxgold was not very good at communicating how a Portfolio should be run. I logged in every now and then and watched the figures grow. About a year or so later my Portfolio read $257 - but I still couldn´t figure what I should do to access this money.Then I read a post in a forum by a guy who had discovered the secret to running a successful Portfolio and making some money with a Dxgold Account. I jumped on the chance to finally learn how to operate my Dxgold account and found that I was in at the beginning of a very exciting journey. Dxgold has come a long way in that time.Dxgold in now...more
