All you say is worthy...but there is one major elephant in the elevator right now. There is one salient question that awaits an answer. When will the funds/hedgies stop ... or be forced to stop...going long the equities and short the gold stocks ... the JPM gold/silver stocks?...and then have go long the goldies and short the equities? How much longer will monetary easing be able to buoy up the phony stock markets? Until ther elections are over in November? I believe this is what the fundies are thinking.

With all the new paper being hosed into the smoking US equities markets...when insider selling recently was reportedly 1400 to one insider buying... we have a lot of weighty considerations to peruse...like, who is buying and with what?...not the Asians, chinese Russians, Saudiis, Brazilians, sovereign Wealth Funds, etc.

But wait, all the conflab always seems to assume things from an American introspective bias, conveniently overlooking the other elephant...this one in the room...that being the overwhelming momentum now on the side of bigger, other-than-US-movers that are able now to outstrip the ability of the US manipulators to continue to move the markets by continued intervention. The end game is nigh and China is the banker. In my humble opinion, the gold/silver JPM stocks will be more influenced by other than US intervention as we see today with the longs out maneuvering the games of the US Cartel shorters...as per Organs report earlier. The timetable awaits the pleasure of those with the real funds.
