This gold market is scary. Scary, in what this relentless rise and massive buying from mysterious sources implies. Reminds me of an email exchange I had a while back with James Grant. He signed off an email with a virtual toast to some fantastically high gold price. I replied,

Now that gold's in uncharted territory again, I'll break out my old comps to give some indication of the upside potential. In the 1970-74 bull, gold rose 5.6X from trough to peak. In the 1976-80 run, it multiplied 8.2X. In the ’00-’11 bull, it went 7.5X. The low for this move

Flash crash in spot gold immediately rectified. I'd suspect a fat finger except the crash wasn't a straight line down — looks like a concerted effort. Whatever the reason for it, the market obviously wants more gold at a higher price. Never seen anything like this, even in 2008.
