a few reasons why gold got hit today in my view:

- relaxed India & Pakistan border tensions
- South African Govt announced nationalization seizures of mining industry
--- (death blow to all SoAfrican miner stocks imho)
- gold rebuffed at #330 resistance
- NYCity hedge fund selling last week broke shorterm uptrend
- possible retail investor acceptance that gold is jewelry
--- (demonetized gold theory)
- gold entering its low season (summer = low season)
- USdollar resting at critical support level (actually just below it)
- OsamaBedLinen admitted he wears Jockey Shorts after all

unless & until the following occur, gold trend still up:
- gold remains above #300
- shorterm TBill yield rises above 2.5% (now 1.75%)
- US trade gap falls to below $200B/year (now $400B/yr)
- US dollar stabilizes below 100 (now 111)
