Shorts are likely still there, only about a 2,000 contract drop in open interest today.

<<I notice on the message boards there is a concerted effort by the shorts. Also notice gold down after hours.>> BUT did you also notice it did NOT give back everything gained in the last few days? Have lease rates returned to the 1.5% range? <<I think we have not seen the short covering yet that will send gold over 300/oz but we are close. >> Could it be possible the shorts have such a large position they can NOT COVER? Didn't you see my post that showed the suspected shorts are in trouble for other leveraged loan positions?
