There has been much discussion in the media of strong buying of physical gold, but this is not confirmed by the chart. Gold now presents a strong setup for a short trade. After a reasonable bear market rally, price is now consolidating below resistance at $1500. Breakout below $1450 and the rising trendline would signal another primary decline, testing primary support at $1320 but with a target of $1150*.
When "normal people" get in something professionals will get out.
Next 12 to 24 months USD is up. Gold will go down to $600 level.
I see a few holes in some of your theories M/W
Gold under $1000/oz. will put most Gold producers under water. Long term support at $1030/oz. could get tested, but Supply and Demand would have to balance at some point.
If we get the "Armageddon" you are describing you may be right .... you can't eat Gold, but it would likely buy you a lot more rice bubbles than a pile of iron ore would
Agree barney and with 10 year US T bond yields crossing above 3% the last few days we may have a scatter in the hen house pretty soon now, or fox skins on the fence.
The huge finance/media mania call we have seen for the last month or two, for gold below US$1,000, has in the past signaled bottoms.
Was looking at the 10 year chart over the weekend and noticed the obvious, POG now back to where it should be, back to the long term 10 year trend..if we consider the irrational exuberance of 2011/12 to be just that then its full steam ahead with everything going according to plan.
Based on the above i would think that the miners look to be extraordinary opportunities at current prices.
