I subscribe to your view Scruffy but I do not necessarily agree to that article's idea that gold needs to take a step backwards before advancing further forward.
This is just a result of the manipulators having an opportunity to take a breath.
I subscribe to the notion that $940 to 950 whould be here right now, perhaps go back to 920s and then high 900s. Who knows after that and I little care at that point.
The net and long trend should be to 1200$ but I have been seeing, and saying myself, optimism of that kind from $600 three years ago. So I take it all with a good dose of salt.
