I am sitting here wondering with great curiosity what the antics of the cartel will be over the next 20 hours or so...and if they will be successful on optios expiry to any degree. The dollar back up is unlimited. Even if they can bail out with paper as per the US Gov., it still smacks of default and gold/silver have a hay day.

At this time gold and silver turning down, $US turning up, Euro down. ..but it can all change in a wink. Everything looks green for a very nice Christmas in the shiny metals to me.
