You'll get a lot of folks buying in anyway. From how they see it, they can make 4.5% on the S+P, or 40% some odd percent in precious metals. What do they care if the spread goes up?

Normally that is a sign of a "trap" being set-up, most retail investors don't have good odds in their favour.
 
I don't know about setting a trap up, but I will agree that the "cattle herd" mentality, or the stampede, if you will, always results in a cattle slaughter at some point.

what if it goes down? reminds me of nat gas recently and cattle
 
What if it goes sideways? My point is that when people get herd mentality, and they think the sky is the limit and they don't want to miss out on the bull run, they'll enter regardless of the spread.
