I reckon gold is going to get hammered in 2015.
I expect that once the seasonally strong period for gold is over (Jan, Feb typically) it will roll over and start to move downwards.
My only reservation to my expectation is, why is it not getting hammered already. AFAIK near enough all metals, base and precious, have been hammered in 2013 but gold is the exception.
I don't think it's special but the market obviously does. Not sure why, but the market thought crude was fine above $100 until it changed its mind; it thought EUR/USD was find above 1.30 until it changed its mind; it thought greek bonds were fine pre 2007 until it changed its mind.
Gold bulls / bugs think gold is extremely cheap here but I remember when people were gasping that gold had got to $500. And then $600. And then $700. etc etc. Also I remember when silver was single digits, $6 or something. It wasn't that long ago. Inflation adjusted silver could easily come down to under $10.
But hey this is just my opinion and it counts for ****.
