Reddec- Gold never hit 900.The highest it reached was 853 and it took two years and two months before it saw 360 again.I agree with you that gold wont hit 1000 this year,maybe not even next year,but it will happen.It will all depend on dollar vauation, or should I say devaluation.Central banks will continue to manage the price of gold on its way up,even though their ability to do so is diminishing.So gold will continue to grind its way up ,with occassional profit taking and seasonal ups and downs.The original trigger was last year at the end of august when the fed announced they would stop reporting the m3 money supply.Gold was at 435.By xmas it was 515.The first time the fed stopped reporting m3 money supply was March 24-31, 06.Gold went from 570 area toto over 730 in 7weeks.The fed basically told everyone ,we're going to print so much funny money that there is no sense telling you much it really is.The smart money took gold from 430-630,hegding against more dollar devaluation.From 630 to 730 was spec. trading.So the P.O.G. settled out right about where it should be.The smart money isnt going to sell with gauranteed dollar devaluation.And by the way , your insecurity is showing when you make childish commentsl like that.
