I've always been a nervous gold bull, it's not religion for me. Really I'm getting to be almost mechanical about it in fact, watch the hedge funds, the Wizards, and maybe now the ETF for the "real" investment demand versus paper trading.

Wizards replace $12 billion expiring temps with $10 billion,

but it's still early in an important too many balls in the air manipulation day.

You are a pleasure to read in the sea of gold bears. I just wish every time the general markets swooned a little, the analysts would begin to speak of an impending crash the way most of our "gold bugs" seem to do. It's amazing each time gold corrects, it is going to be "a major downturn," yet when the general markets drop, it is merely "profit taking" setting up for the next resumption of the "bull." Why does everyone keep forgetting that the general markets began an extended BEAR in 2000 following a 20 year bull run, and gold began a BULL in 2001 following a 20 year BEAR? Eventually, the right people will all be on board, and then we can wait until Krudlow and Crammer are telling sheeple to buy gold and commodities as our first clue to begin selling. Will be nice when gold is 90% held by investors and not traders.

I remain,

1) I doubt there is a sea of gold bears here - certainly not long term
2) Russ himself took profits if I am not mistaken when things got too frothy
3) When gold refused to follow the Euro higher there was a HUGE warning signal
4) COT positions gave further creedence to possible mammoth liquidation
5)Why give back huge profits if you can avoid it

Silver has fallen from 8.22 to 6.36
Giving up a $2 rise in silver seems nuts to me
