Boom! Goes the GDX Gold Miner ETF

The move is being spurred by a jump in the price of spot gold, which climbed 2.5 percent following a weaker than expected 'Philly Fed' report. The weak data is stoking speculation that the Fed will be forced to continue quantitative easing efforts later this year, which is generally believed to be supportive for gold and gold miners.
