Just to clarify what you probably already know, the index is the relation between the dollar and a group of foreign currencies, so troubles in their economies will cause the dollar index to rise.

What I think "may" be a sign of an imminent and major increase in PMs is a special telltale where the dollar is declining below an "apparent" line the central banks have drawn (i.e. 80), while the price of PMs are rising without sellers having much of an impact on price. One might construe that as sign manipulation was becoming ineffective, if prices are indeed being "managed".

Just my two cents worth... ;)

Two excellent presentations by Edward Griffin on Youtube:

OK, thanks. I was in this strategy a few years ago, almost totally in regular stocks now, think it's about time to head back into energy/gold funds again. That's an interesting indicator you brought up, will be watching it.
