Federally Funded Health Insurance Benefits for Americans with Pre Existing Medical Conditions; Health Insurance Benefit News PA; President Obama...
Health Care Coverage and Health Insurance Benefit News for Americans with
Pre-Existing Health Conditions: Pa. is making headlines as a leader in health
care for individuals in need of health coverage having a pre-existing health
condition. The management plan is termed PA Fair Care and as of the end of the
last calendar year, the pan was already helping to support almost 5,000
individuals having pre-existing health conditions with health insurance benefit
needs . Finding health insurance for individuals with pre-existing medical
conditions is difficult to do and even more difficult to afford. Administering a
benefit coverage of this sort is considered high risk in the health insurance
industry. The federal government is needed in some cases to support such
programs in order that individuals with pre-existing conditions receive
affordable health insurance. PA Fair Care is an example of a federally funded
support program. Pa representative, Joel Ario, recently reported that the Obama
administration approved the plan which would help thousands of Americans, in
this case Pennsylvanians, obtain affordable health care coverage when they
previously were denied due to pre-existing conditions. The plans coverage will
include preventative care, physician services, mental health services,
prescription medications, and diagnostic testing. All this and the premiums will
be subsidized by the federal government. The President is moving towards
reelection and this is just one of the moves his administration has made in an
attempt to garner votes. For more up-to-date news release regarding this
specific program, see www.pa.gov. Genny Germano

51.485. In all this neither SILVER PRICE nor GOLD PRICE have violated the bottom
boundaries which, if they cross, will drag them lower: 3300c for silver and
$1,705 for gold. It's a bull market. Remember that the longer anything drags on
in a bull market, the more likely it is to resolve in the upward direction,
because that is the market's tide. The riddle remains, Why have silver and the
GOLD PRICE not fallen further, followed through their repulse at $1,750? Is that
strength speaking? Can they not be driven back further? First, look at
currencies. US dollar index today gained a hefty 46.1 basis points (0.5%),
stealing it all from the yen and euro. Euro dropped 0.47% to 1.3126 and Yen
plunged a massive 1.09% to 127.51c/Y100 (Y78.43/US$1). Dollar stands at the 20
day moving average's threshold (70.40) and tomorrow will open the door. Stocks
dithered. Dow gained 4.24 to 12,878.28, S&P500 lost 1.27 to 1,350.50, clearly

Earnings Season Nears for Senior Gold Producers
With several of the world's largest gold producers scheduled to report fourth
quarter earnings later this week, Stifel Nicolaus discussed its outlook for the
companies in a report to clients published this week: Goldcorp (GG) – reports
Wednesday after the market close - "We forecast 4Q11 EPS of $0.56, below
consensus $0.60 and 3Q11's $0.57. We note high-growth companies have inherent
delivery risks, which are almost always short term in nature. Irrespective of
likely quarterly volatility, Goldcorp, with its attractive 60% production growth
profile by 2015 from assets in the Americas, remains our top pick among the
seniors. We maintain our Buy rating and US$65/share target price." Kinross
Gold (KGC) – reports Wednesday after the market close - "We forecast 4Q11
EPS of $0.19, below consensus $0.21 and 3Q11's $0.24. Kinross has the highest
growth potential (65% by 2016E), but mainly from assets located in risky
jurisdictions (i.e., Russia, Mauritania, and Ecuador, versus Goldcorps in the
Americas). We note that while Kinross is relatively undervalued, the constant
stream of bad news and mis-steps has continued to weigh on the stock. We
maintain our Buy rating and US$17/share target price." Barrick Gold (ABX) –
reports Thursday before the market open - "We forecast 4Q11 EPS of $1.21,
below consensus $1.27 and 3Q11's $1.39. Barrick remains attractive for its
steady cash flow delivery and valuation from a solid 8 mmoz production base, in
our view. We calculate that for every $100/oz increase in gold prices, Barricks
cash flow increases by $500mn, or $0.50/share. We maintain our Buy rating and
US$70/share target price." Newmont Mining (NEM) – reports Friday before the
market open - "We forecast 4Q11 EPS of $1.17, below consensus $1.27 and
3Q11's $1.29. We reiterate our Hold rating.

Klondex Mines Reports “Very Encouraging” Results at Fire Creek
Klondex Mines (KDX.TSX) announced the final results from its 2011 exploration
program at its 100%-owned Fire Creek gold-silver project in north-central
Nevada. The emerging gold Company noted that the 2011 program succeeded in
locating previously unknown gold- and silver-bearing veins. Klondex reported
assay results for the final 21 holes of its 33-hole 2011 surface-drilling
program, the first 12 of which were released in November 2011. Highlights: *
30.9 grams per tonne (g/t) of gold over 4.9 meters (m) at hole FC1126, including
109.3 g/t over 1.2m * 8.14 g/t of gold over 1.2m at hole FC1127 * 7.71 g/t of
gold over 1.2m at hole FC1136 Blane Wilson, CEO of Klondex Mines : "Our
exploration team made substantial progress in 2011 in what was the largest-ever
surface exploration program conducted by Klondex. We are very encouraged by the
program's overall results, with a combination of high-grade intercepts, new
vein discoveries and gold bearing shears that warrant follow-up drilling. We are
finalizing plans for our 2012 surface drilling program which is expected to
exceed 15,000 meters (49,000 feet) of drilling and will be underway in April."
Klondex Management: "Our underground in-fill and definition drilling program
is also making excellent headway. We hope to have initial results from this
program soon… Given our strong financial position and the unprecedented level
of exploration and development activity planned for Fire Creek this year, we are
very optimistic about our prospects to create greater value for Klondex
shareholders."

Global Market News Gold and Silver Price Trends Today: Indices were on the rise
during the opening trading session of the week. Positive momentum built as a
result of the Greek Parliament approval of much needed austerity measures for
Greece. The debt due date in March is approaching and austerity approval is a
key step in securing the bailout funds needed. Stock indicators rose higher on
the news as did precious metal gold and silver prices. The dollar lost ground to
the euro and British pound last session and this action helped support gold and
silver price trends. The positive trending did not hold throughout the session
for both metals however as gold and silver rates closed out on opposite sides of
break-even. Contract gold price and contract silver price close review today:
After closing in negative territory on the last session of the previous week,
gold and silver finished the opening trading session of this week mixed. Gold
contract for April delivery finished the last session just red by .02 percent at
1724.90 per troy ounce. Silver contract finished the last session higher overall
by .35 percent at 33.72 per troy ounce. Spot gold price per gram and spot silver
