Why is Gold spiking up afterhours? I don't see any news. It just may be a bit of a delayed reacton to the terrorist threat....and especially the fear of terrorists getting nukes (as Rumsfield pointed out today). Scary thought. One has to think about it for a while before realizing how frightening this really is. That is how I felt it..during the day it was no big deal to me, probably because I was busy trading...but realized this evening how serious a concern it is. (and I would note that the dollar is actually stable afterhours; so it does not seem to be a currency related move this evening)
