Why would we even want to consider gold? There is no long trade now >downtrend! There appears to be no compelling reason to hold gold either. Even if we thought there was, why would we hold instead of waiting for something to happen? It's not like we are likely to wake up one morning to see gold suddenly without warning move hundreds of dollars. On the odd chance it does move, we'd rather give up the first $1 then sit waiting and praying for years while slowly lossng are minds trying to come up with theories to justify our position and reading astro guru newsletters to pass the time.
