If so, we must be very careful regarding everything else – in other words, gold is simply acting as it is supposed to, as a leading indicator for everything else; and I don’t believe gold is a leading indicator for everything else... If gold is falling, why is it telling us we’re onto the next great financial crisis? In 2008, gold fell, but so did everything else. Gold falling tells us what? 1) faith in Bernanke style printing trumps faith in gold? 2) Gold is only 15% correlated to equities.. it is its own animal.. there is nothing here 3) Is it supply/demand? Lots of central bank selling? 4) Threre’s always conspiracy theories of mkt manipulation.. but I’m not writing that on our newsletter.
