I think you are right. I’ve seen that happen a couple of times, like before US bombing in the middle east. TPTB can’t win, because they already lost it. Especially after Trump got elected. I think Gold will pop over $2100 and never look back. Plus the Fed will probably drop rates because of commercial real estate way under water.
I’ve also noticed Gold going up thru the night, and when NY opens they bash it down. Those idiots can’t scare me. 🙂
