"Hopefully there will be a spurt back up to something reasonable by closing time....pic"
It is always like that. By the way, the Dollar remains weak, so gold and silver will remain strong. The rest is noise.
Unfortunately, Maund tends to listen a lot to rumours. Last time (a month ago) he shared/feared the Rosen/Prechter scare theory, so didn't want to commit himself to the bullish case.
Everyone knows disaster is ahead. But why should it be negative for Gold and Silver this time?
