SPOT GOLD IN US$ TERMS:  Things Are Coming To A Point,  Aren’t They?:  
“Triangle” consolidations  almost always end with  the market moving in the  direction that prevailed  prior to the formation… in  this instance higher!

We are most impressed with the fact that gold is trading firmer despite… or perhaps interestingly because of… the stronger US dollar. Gold is firm, and quite so, in terms of the EUR, the Yen, Sterling et al, and we accept that as a condition of the world’s central bankers at the margin quietly moving away from the EUR as a reservable asset and moving to gold instead.
