that's certainly a good point, plus we have some warning signs in terms of quantitative sentiment data, but one mustn't lose sight of the most important point of them all, which is the price action itself. we can't rule out that the gold stocks will e.g. begin to discount expected future changes in the yield spread before they happen.
this is not a comment on the likelihood of this happening, just noting that it's in the realm of the possible.

"Some of the American soldiers taunted the detainees by asking them, "Can you say Abu Ghraib?"

"One truck quickly stopped and a soldier got out and pointed his pistol at the children, causing them to scatter briefly, before he drove away."

" Bush Takes Responsibility for Blunders "

meaning what? is he going to resign? take a pay cut? what? what does 'taking responsibility' mean for politicians? i still recall Rumsfeld 'taking responsibility' for Abu Ghraib.
