Here’s why it could get way worse for gold

“When that dollar really does break up towards that 100 level on the futures… ahm, perhaps the Fed raises rates, whatever it may be, that will be the thing that finally pushes gold through to the downside and for traders – this is trading nation [biiwii comment: wtf does that mean?] – gold is a great trader to the downside. It tends to be very deliberate, very tradeable… I look forward to it but its still range bounce for now.”
Well okay, CNBC’s talking head expert agrees with Team Final Plunge, all aboard the Gold Downside Momo Express! By the way TFP, how do you feel having this crowd in your trade?
Now don’t get me wrong. I am not bullish on gold’s price yet and indeed NFTRH‘s lowest potential target is 970. But never will CNBC be right there giving the public the ‘need to know’ information when they really need to know it. If gold takes a final plunge, it is probably going to be quick and it is going to be a final washout prior to something entirely new on the macro.
Anyway, then they go on to blab about bad fundamentals “as the US dollar rises” and needs “a real volatility avoidance mentality, and we don’t see that. Overall I’d say you’re better off focusing on your equities and fixed income vs. gold.”
Then the Barbi Doll doing in the interview of these high level geniuses closes with “not a fan, that will do it for us…”
Get this; these clowns following the trends were nowhere to be found last summer when we began chronicling the bottom and upturn through resistance in the US dollar. These clowns are the ones who are going to put the public against gold, for the US dollar and for equities just as these clowns are the ones who put them in gold and silver heavy in 2011.
Get this also; while it has been a patience play for sure, a strong US dollar is one strong fundamental consideration in bringing on a new bull market maybe not in gold, but in the gold stock sector. That is because we are 100% focused on economic cycles now. Not some stupid blathering about a strong US dollar and the Fed’s ongoing Kabuki Theater‘will they or won’t they raise the Funds Rate by a lousy 1/4 point’.
I really do dislike the MSM’s utter banality, it’s just that I need them to gauge the psychological aspects of an overall plan that includes so much more than what the average TV star analyst puts out there, not to mention a good chunk of the mainstream financial services industry.
