<this scenario would be harmful to gold?>

In my mind it question of whether a flight to quality trumps the speculative position already in gold. Ideally, we get some fund money out of gold like last week, and remove that risk of herd like selling. Hoye's comments:

For a real bull market in gold you have to have gold going up in the senior currency. Why would it go up in the senior currency? Because of investment demand. That investment demand in the past has been anticipated by a steepening of the yield curve, as investors get out of longer-term Treasuries and into the shorter end. The two most liquid investments in a flight to quality are gold and the bill market in the senior currency.
