it seems to me , many of the bulls are only short term bullish. then when this wave tops out , new lows are in store.
just watched a gary wagner piece. it seems that is the sentiment. i dont know of course. but it seems what everyone thinks is right, usually doesnt work out.

Yep. Prominent gold bull sent out a letter saying gold has yet to make a bottom. Hey, he's a bull! LOL keep the shorts sanguine. By the time they realize they need to cover we'll be above $1400… then fireworks. Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch. LOL

keep in mind my frame of reference is 78 , that is when i started.
stu always appreciate your perspective.
when i look around, i see japan bent on producing inflation. abe and kuroda are on the same page there, so no political wrangling
crude oil is @102 , so while it is overbought , it appears to be on a breakout so a pullback is waranted
the softs appear to be beginning an up trend as are the grains. w/the drought in california its not difficult to imagine rising food prices. and the start of cost push inflation. when i look @ the velocity of money charts, they are still in the doldrums could be turning up. w/rising oil prices indias balance of payments will keep chidambaram maintaining the tight screws on gold imports. whatever gold gets smuggled in, probably has his take secured.
i do see the seeds of cost push inflation and that is what gold thrives on. all the while prominent analysts in the gold community are waiting for the real low to come in may. to my eyes , this looks about as real as it can get. the volume coming into the miners, has set records and is impressive. now, the bull has to prove itself -above 1434 . the rally has gotten overbought and a consolidation seems appropriate.
the banksters, except jpm have been calling for gold tanking. on the other side. technically it looks good and the backdrop keeps getting better and better
the ukraine is now the battle ground of the previous cold war. seems things are escalating over there.
i remember in 79 the shah of iran was toppled
russia went into afghanistan.
so the present world environment is not friendly, no one wants war, but we are a stupid species!

This is definitely different - the stability of the overall system is being slowly challenged "all around the edges" - attack here - attack there - the "status quo walls" are weakening - we are nearing the end of an era -

stu- i agree. banksters are falling from the skies. lots of challenges to the present system
the initial thrust off the building of the base has potential. and its not just the pms . its lots of different commodities,as your chart shows
lots of cbs are trying to produce"a little inflation" since they have the reins , it shouldnt be too difficult
senor- it will be interesting if the gap turns out to be a breakaway gap.
dharma
Yeah, really matters little in the bigger picture IMO, just a level to look for if we do correct further
