BGR -- What do you expect AG to say --

1) 'I am out to kick the market in the ass?'

The Japanese clearly do not want a weak dollar, but they will get one unless they keep dumping yen -- and Rubin has said 'stop that'. What do you expect the Japanese to say --

There is an uproar in the gold market over the BOE's announcement and there is a move in Congress and the Senate to block IMF gold sales. Gold is not only oversold -- there is the mother of all short positions sitting under it -- gold is not a goner -- its going to get its turn in this currency morality play. The BOE has helped to feed the shorts -- now they are going to have their D-day --the gold carry trade will collapse just like the yen carry trade did last fall.
