You wonder what the Jun & Aug OI thinks POG and trend possibilities will be by summer. Those silly shorts really piled on today. Shades of 2008, even BTO and solid miners down 5% & the like. Could be a long consolidating summer. So far I don't see any explanations that are wholly convincing.

COT D@MN SAM!!!!!!! ....................... ........................... ................... I dunno, maybe this isn't significant at all and just an imagination of a gold bug? Friday, while POG was tanking some -$26.00 and investors were vomiting up PM shares, the Over All (OA) Open Interest did NOT decline, rather it added a modest 854 contracts! Huh? Why aren't investors running from a burning building? Are they crazy? As I pointed out Friday's volume was a large 283,225. Admittedly noting like Novemeber's 486K volume high - but that was when POG tanked 23.50 and OI gave back -27,236 contracts [closing out the Dec front month positions.] So what happened? Apr OI added 3480 of OI and Jun added 256. The main offsetting drops were Aug -747 and Dec -1875, looks like a few LT specs got washed out. ST players appear to be the reason for COT's resiliency here. Here's the chart - definite divergence here, something has to break.... one way or another.....
