Thanks for that article... most interesting

Perhaps the logic of the situation maybe the undesirability of CASH, which is, of course, the reciprocal of all trading. As Taikun pointed out, even treasuries have a negative real return.... how much more negative is the return on short term cash in this cash bear-market?

That's what's wrong with your suggestion of stink bids. To support a stink bid, your investment funds must be there in CASH. Is it reasonable to believe that in this bear market for cash it is going to enhance in value to enable the purchase of a bullish commodity at lower prices ?

Here is a chart of CASH relative to gold (merely the reciprocal of a gold chart) illustrating the bear market in cash. I have shown slow stochastics as a technical indicator. Note the reversals when there is a crossover in "overbought territory". The absence of that crossover right now perhaps suggests a little more downside to come for gold.
