Chartology: Gold Bugs Index Gets a Wedgie (HUI)

Most active December futures $1236.70, flat on the day. The index is at 218.94 down 1.36.
Our call on the commodity, for the last 20 months has been: lower, and for the last 15 months we've been targeting ~$875. Should the metal trade there the miners in the HUI would have some serious cash flow problems.
