Over the past couple of weeks I've noticed a pretty consistent pattern developing. For the most part :

If the Dollar is tanking, gold is creamed; and

If the Dollar is rallying, gold is creamed.

Don't ya just love the transparency and openness of the currency and metals market? Also the caliber of leadership of our servants in government, to do good deeds for the people they serve. I'm so proud to be an American. Just makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.

Oh, wait, my mistake. I'm running a fever and haven't shaved for a few days.
