Don, I think we'll have a better idea tonight when we see what the Japanese do with their newly strengthened yen. Or maybe even what you do with yours:)

More importantly, whenever the XAU leads gold higher it has never been a substained rally in either. And if you look at GOLD today, in a relative currency basis... it fell.

Tue $296.00 USD/OZ * 130.2 YEN/USD = 38550 YEN/Oz
Wed $301.30 USD/OZ * 120.6 YEN/USD = 36336 YEN/Oz

Which is a reduction of 5.74% {-5.74% on Gold due to currency}

This is the excess supply coming back onside due to currency correction as I mentioned a week ago. Throw in Britain, Canada, Germany and elsewhere. And you are setting yourself up for gold to go down, once the USD recorrects back up, due to Japan recession.
