    Gold falls to its lowest level since August, now at $1,591 and off more than 11% since the heady post-QE∞ announcement days. The move is more of a blip on a longer-term chart and the metal is basically flat since summer 2011. GLD -0.8% premarket.

  • S&P will fall significantly more than GOLD when we wake from the dream of economic growth, no inflation and preposterously low interest rates. Stagflation will keep GOLD up.

  • considering what happend with GBP today and why, it's hard to imagine that the FOMC meeting minutes would attempt to increase the value of USD. on the contrary.

  • Long time fan of gold here but I have to say this precipitous fall in value is really testing my resolve. Fundamentally everything points to higher gold prices, yet it just keeps on going down...

  • Ditto both those sentiments. I guess it's because NFLX is suddenly such a great buy. I bought more GLD today. I am at my limit on AAPL and will just hold on and suffer through this sideshow with Einhorn.

  • This is pure manipulation by some big hedge funds, they want that every one should sell their GOLD to them at cheaper prices.
    They can't fool us for ever.

  • If you got be glad... If not you better get some..... If you can afford to; than buy more.... The truth of what is to come is in the the obvious lack of any positive changes in ours and the worlds governments. They have all proven that moral corruption, greed, and complete lack of honesty is the way of the times. God has turned them over to the desires of their hearts. They have even lost the ability to blush.... More of the same is coming; and so many lies and blatant wrongs are simply not sustainable... They are NOT... What ever come will not be pleasant.. And it is coming!!! Better to be prepared and not need it then to not be and wish to late that you were.... A little Gold and Silver never hurt anyone.....
