Goldsnow:

Great minds think alike. That is my view. But I would add if all of this money is printed and there is still deflation, we are all in trouble. If inflating the money supply works then at least we can hedge with gold. If we have deflation, I am not sure that gold will work as a hedge. Also, I suspect when I look at my charts tonight, I will find that most gold stocks have broken out of consolidations to the downside. I think the price of gold is short term, at least headed down.

Live long and prosper,

Little joe
