Dollar's weakness may come to an end soon. It will probably head higher near term, probably coinciding with a pop in the stock market as well. It has been dropping for so long. The Japanese are trying their best to keep the YEN weak.
Will the Europeans be next?
This story below makes me believe that the dollar will not be allowed to slide for much longer.

Therefore, Gold's run may be over for the near future; might have to wait a lot longer. The unhedged players may turn out to be great shorts here; so far I have only shorted NEM on Friday.

From my prophecy thread:

Thought you might enjoy this interesting prayer given in KANSAS at The opening session of their Senate. It seems prayer still upsets some people. When Minister Joe Wright was asked to open the new session of the Kansas Senate, everyone was expecting the usual generalities, but this is
what they heard:

Heavenly Father, We come before you today to ask your forgiveness and to seek your direction and guidance. We know Your Word says, "Woe to those who call evil good," but that is exactly what we have done. We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values. We confess that: We have ridiculed the absolute truth of Your Word and called it Pluralism.

We have exploited the poor and called it the Lottery.

We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare.

We have killed our unborn and called it choice.

We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable.

We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self-esteem.

We have abused power and called it politics.

We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition.

We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of speech.

We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment.

Search us, Oh, God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from every sin and set us free. Guide and bless these men and women who have been sent to direct us to the center of your will and to openly ask these things in the name of your Son, the living Savior, Jesus Christ.

Amen.

The response was immediate. A number of legislators walked out during the prayer in protest.

In 6 short weeks, Central Christian Church, where Reverend Wright is pastor, logged more than 5,000 phone calls with only 47of those calls responding negatively.

The church is now receiving international requests for copies of this Prayer from India, Africa, and Korea.

Commentator Paul Harvey aired this prayer on his radio program "The Rest of the Story" and received a larger response to this program than any Other he has ever aired.

With the Lord's help, may this prayer sweep over our nation and wholeheartedly become our desire so that we again can be called, "...one nation under God..."

If possible, please pass this prayer on to your friends.
Think about this:If you forward this prayer to everyone on your email list, in less than 30 days it would be heard by the world. God Bless gutsy Joe Wright!

I watched a documentary on the Travel Channel tonight, that claims Fort Knox really does have 3 Trillion Dollars of Gold! On January 13, 1937 The first delivery was made to Fort Knox. Over ¼ million gold bars were delivered at todays estimated value of 15.5 Billion Dollars. Supposedly the vault has been highly guarded ever since. In 1974 their were rumors that the gold was gone a delegation lead by Senator Huddleston of Kentucky took a trip to the Gold vault and confirmed the gold was really there. A sign in the background on the video claims the vault holds
32,260 Gold Bars. A former worker who has been in the vault a thousand times says the bars weight ranges between 27 and 40 lbs. A guard who appeared on the documentary, very enthusiastically states he has seen the Gold and that it is there.
