    Might this be a good buy at the bottom of the gap?

    Not really as ABX is

    Not really as ABX is distorting things as it by far makes up the largest part of GDX. This morning ABX announced they were buying another company for around $7b so count on ABX underperforming for at least a few months - thus dragging down the GDX. 

    Also check out the following link as to why gold stocks have been underperforming for quite a while, and why it will probably continue.
