Bob,
We have been warned of the volatility ahead, as I know you are aware. This Eurozone crisis IMO is like an iceberg - 90% of the upcoming damage is sub-surface. We may be headed toward 2008 squared. After the margin-call induced rush to liquidity (spell that dollars), common sense will prevail and gold will emerge as a much larger component than ever, and I think much faster than it did in 2008.
But I think it's gonna hurt for a while.
