      I noticed it, too. An hour ago I kicked back up your old thread "Gold getting KILLED!!!!", I just love that classic headline of yours.

        Left to its own devise, the global financial system will collapse and the dollar pricing mechanism for all assets will fail. Banks are stuffed to the gills with non-performing loans and more importantly, trillions of derivatives that require the status quo to be maintained. Any sudden rise in interest rates, currency rates, commodity prices, etc. will trigger trillions in derivatives that simply can't be paid off. Now the banks say that its a net 0 sum game, but that is a lie. Failure of one to pay up will cause failure in the entire system.

        What we view as the price on the comex is merely a reference price for which physical trade is conducted. Very little commodity, compared to the paper ever crosses hands. The illusion of redeemability keeps the system afloat. This illusion requires solvent financial institutions. They are not solvent. You can pretend they are solvent by guaranteeing a few trillions to cover up the CDO's and bad loans, but what happens when their entire portfolio goes under the water. What happens when they interest rate swaps written can no longer be honored? All paper assets will be liquidated to cover up a black hole. All paper prices will go near zero. Recall what happened to the collapse in the oil price. Did consumption drop/supply diminish by 80% in a matter of months to justify an 80% plunge in its price? Failure is guaranteed regardless of the actions taken by our enlightened ones.

          From what i can tell this was caused by a massive short squeze on the Euro. Suddenly everyone needed Euro's (don't know why, but).

            From what I can tell Jtabeb needed some fiat for retirement and sold part of his holdings.

                If it was the case that suddenly everyone needed Euros, that makes a lot of sense. The ECB's 1-year lending facility just ended. That means a lot of European banks had to come up with Euros to pay back the ECB.

                            Thank you for these links to the seasonal charts.

                            Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
