Gold gains as doubts rise over Libya cease fire
Pure, unadulterated crap. You are in gold because you are concerned about the terror being perpetrated upon the currency in which you denominate your life, and little else. The rest is noise. MSM simply love to ghettoize the barbarous relic.
Now, onto this week's CoT Report for gold and silver. Gold lurches toward healthy with large and little spec's selling and commercials covering. Silver does the same.
Have a great weekend.
