Gold going up in tandem w/ the dollar could also mean some Saudis and other Muslims are buying in anticipation of an Israeli strike on Iranian nukes -Katy bar the door if that happens. The trash talk from Iran about destroying Israel helps the gold price. Never trust someone who says he wants to kill you. Even if he says it just once
You left out the part about the trashing of Paris by rioting mobs.
The destruction of a major European capital is worthy of note to those who worry about the future.
