I think 1-3 will occur together, along with the stock market decline and a dollar crisis, but who knows. Gold has been a source of the carry trade as well, since lease rates are even lower than yen, gold-yen moves have been correlated in the past. Remember 100 point move in gold in 1999, along with a move in Yen from 120yen/usd to 100yen/usd?

i believe US treasury holds 80-85% of gold in the world. So gold is NOT going up anywhere.
