Gold will (eventually) bottom and then rally. It is part of Big Bang(strongly faltering economy, tanking bond market and soverign debt failures, starting 2015.75.). It is not inflation that gold responds to. It is the collapse in trust and confidence in government. We are headed into the eye of the storm. I BELIEVE we will end up with a one-world reserve currency and there will be wholesale defaults of sovereign debts. This is the ONLY issue that will result in a gold rally. Not paper v futures or anything else. Gold is by no means SYSTEMICALLY suppressed just for the hell of it. They(the bankers) make their quick buck and move to the next. That is an excuse for being wrong. Most manipulations are to the upside – not to the downside.
