This shows the stupidity of day traders and markets when they react to something a few men talked about in a closed door session over a month ago like it's current in anyway or relevant for that matter. It's a computer HFT algorithm world and it will yet destroy what has taken generations to build and will end badly someday. Seems to me that we may be seeing a pre-determined attack on gold prior to a poorish jobs number coming on Friday when the markets are closed. Now who would be surprised at that !!!
