someone please tell me how it is that precious metals (gold) are still flat.

I'd like to know the answer to that as well!

No buying pressure yet, too much complacency, selling by central banks in Switzerland and Germany. Good time to get into gold and mining shares, next week or so, after the next dip.

Haven't checked the numbers, but I suspect that central banksters all over the world are selling gold out of their remaining reserves with both hands to keep the $ from going through the roof, displaying for anyone who cares to look that their fiat-money house of cards is tumbling down.
