Ever since the day after Thanksgiving of 2007 when the dollar was pushed significantly lower as the pro-dollar, anti-silver/gold crew slept, a group has been assigned to hit gold and especially silver on traditionally slow trading days. These crooks have vowed to never rest again on these slow days to the detriment of the silver/gold longs who are never willing to defend their turf. Excuse my French, but I call them the pussies in the pits. Never willing to fight the shorts. Of course, the poor relative showing of the HUI/XAU yesterday forecasted this thrashing.
