Is this the calm before the storm? Comex and GLD inventories dropping fast, commercials are the least net short they've been in years, stock market is starting to get a misfire, volumes are down, and there seems to me to be a growing uneasiness even from some MSM types that nothing is working. Maybe there will be another leg lower for PM's, but maybe not eh? God forbid if the bond market shows some slippage, that is the tectonic event IMHO. It just might be time for gold to actually become what it is intended to be...an anchor in a monetary storm.
