Did you Stack the Smack, or did you miss gold's correction from $1923 to nearly $1500 over the previous 2 months?
China sure as h*** didn't, and you can bet that the banksters didn't either.
Quit attempting to predict the movements of gold and silver, and RESPOND to price weakness by accumulating professionally into price weakness. If you don't have a strong enough stomach to buy the dips (Stack the Smack) then allocate a monthly purchase program on a specific date each month without regard to cost. At least that will prevent you from price chasing into rallies.
