Ik pik veel onrust op en begin het idee te krijgen dat we naar een fluitende kanarie kijken.
Die kanarie fluit vals en naar mijn idee (gevoel, nergens op gebaseerd) betekend dit niet veel goeds.
De kanarie fluit niet vals, maar de crimex wel ....
Eerst de kanarie dan maar, die het hoogste lied zingt:

Gold futures slumped below $1,600 an ounce for the first time since August as signals on the U.S. economy spurred optimism, eroding demand for the precious metal as a store of value.
In February, manufacturing in the New York region unexpectedly expanded, and consumer confidence rose to a three- month high, separate reports showed today. Billionaire investors George Soros and Louis Moore Bacon cut their stakes in exchange- traded products backed by gold in the fourth quarter, government filings showed. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index of equities has gained 6.3 percent this year, while gold has dropped 4 percent.

Dus de vraag naar fysiek stijgt, het aanbod daalt en in India draait het goudseizoen (altijd in het voorjaar) op volle toeren. En op basis van een stijgende vraag en dalend aanbod .... daalt de prijs fors omdat het in de VS een economisch feestje lijkt te gaan worden ......
Fysiek is wat het is en papier is een hoax. Al is de leugen nog zo snel, de waarheid achterhaald hem wel.
