<<The specs... They are now short 58,972
contracts or 41.03% of open interest (143,725). I think that's a record spec/open interest number, virtually a short corner on gold.>>

Isn't a contract 100oz of gold ? How can a short or long position of 6 million oz which is only 6% of annual production be described as a "corner" ?

Prechter has recently become Bullish on Gold. I've read his most recent report. He sees either a final washout to $200 here before a massive bull rally or a rally first to $360 before the final washout comes.
