Two excerpts from wash post story today

- Richard Bernstein, chief U.S. strategist at Merrill Lynch & Co., said the surge in gold prices is not based on fundamentals of supply and demand. "People have to remember that the number one player in all commodities right now is hedge funds," he said. "It's all speculation. In gold, it's an inflation trade. Hedge funds are long gold and short Treasury notes."-

-Gartman, despite his recent bullishness on gold, said such figures worry him. "If somebody is thinking of investing in gold right now, I would tell them to go sit down, have a cup of coffee and take a deep breath because I wouldn't be surprised to see gold back down to $400 or $450 by the end of the year," he said. "The very fact that this is making the front page of business sections should give people a lot of caution."-
