agreed on gold having its day soon...
the pattern on the XAU is clear..From July 17th time frame until September 17th, you had the formation of the left shoulder...From September through November you had formation of the Head, and now you are building the right shoulder...If the right shoulder takes as long as the left shoulder we are looking at approximately 8-10 weeks of time from January 1st...So by April 1st, you should have an XAU that has touched the 63-64 area....

Shopping areas: ABX in the 15.00-15.75 area
NEM in the 16.50-17.00 area
MDG in the 6.00-6.25 area
AEM in the 5.87-6.00 area
PDG in the 8.75-9.00 area..
HM in the 3.87-4.06 area...

P.S. Note how the pattern of NEM closely tracks the XAU...
Look for NEM to touch the 24.50-25.00 area in 90 days or less...

Slider:

The dollar rallied yesterday primarily because it was heavily oversold short-term -- not because of intervention. The dollar's rally was a one day wonder -- the greenback is getting trashed again today. But gold is getting hit anyway.

I don't see how one can argue that the boys are trashing gold to support the dollar. Gold is in the dumps, but the dollar is down sharply regardless. The main motivation to trash gold here is simply to support the huge bullion bank short position.

There are only 3 scenarios I can envision that could move gold up in a big way -- and none of them is very probable

The bullion banks and CBs lose control

European CBs take a more pro-gold approach by cutting gold sales and gold lending.

A crisis develops that fundamentally shakes investor faith in the ability of the powers that be to keep things on an even keel.
