Gold corrected back to trend as we noted it might the other day, and said we were taking profits in gold and silver on the short term trades only.
This consolidation was predictable given the extension above trend. Long ago we said we expected gold to move to 1375 and consolidate after the breakout from the handle in the cup formation. This is of a common pattern. We may have already seen this consolidation off the spike up.
Gold will remain in a bull market until the fundamentals change in the real economy with regard to honest stores of value. If you do not understand this by now you may not do so until it is too obvious to do anything about it.
