IMHO commodity markets will be volatile for a while after the financial world will reset the chairs on the Titanic deck. For commodity brokers it will be a bonanza of transaction fees Sunday evening there are important economic news form China

Yeah it doesn't look good. The paper gold trading monkeys are still clearly in charge. The physical supply, apparently, just isn't tight enough yet to break them.

<<A new low will not surprise me.>> All bull markets experience periodic sharp short term pullbacks. The POG is not going anywhere near new lows.

Regardless of the gold forward swap rate, we had multi-decade extremes for precious metals in 2013, so we must experience a sharp move to an opposite extreme. All assets which experience multi-decade extremes of sentiment always move sharply in the opposite direction thereafter. Any dramatically irrational extreme unwinds dramatically. That is how the financial markets have behaved for millennia. It happens because extremes are caused by emotions, so once logic begins to rule it requires a huge move in the opposite direction to compensate for the irrational emotion which preceded it. Pick any asset and ask yourself when it rallies most strongly: always after people have given up on it and there are irrationally high discounts. When do assets plummet the most: always after they are the most beloved.
