quick answer of my own question on gold non-response

the European continent now is facing the opposite of what the US economy is facing
their euro currency is rising
imported US products are coming down in price
they have disinflation, if not deflation
prices will be coming down
they wont hedge with gold in such cases

Europeans also are seeing asian currencies rise just about evenly as the euro
the yen and euro have each risen about 12-15% versus dollar in recent months
the euro/yen ratio is steady

so perhaps not until price pressures rise in the US from imports will gold see significant pressure
coming this autumn or winter
