gold index falls 16 percent, page-22

It seems to me there is real fear in the world about the stability of the banking & financial system and with good reason.

I cant fathom why people are flocking to the USD as it the country with the most unstable finacial system its under real pressure and could crack. The safe haven of Gold just hasn't lived up to its reputation. I can't figure it out .... its driving me crazy!
