Junkie...maybe you have different glasses on than me..lol...I see economic  problems in the world everywhere and so don't consider my views as telescopic...I see them around the corner!I would be shocked if this nonsense  can carry on for another 6 months  without a reaction.The uncertainty is already  here today  IMO

    So I take it your view is that one will continue to rally and one will sell off(gold/$)as it  is doing now.

    hurricanemalta, pardon my borrowed quote and watch treasury bond yields for a signal. If gold does not sell hard in May/June, that's another signal.

    Gold Vs. USD

    Under the scenario you have described, I see gold falling but much less than equities and other commodities... much like 2008.

    However, there is a near doomsday scenario, where under some geopolitical event, there could be a rush to both gold and USD while equities and other commodities crash... say Israel attack Iran or something like that.
