nice UK open, not just on gold but everything,,general theme seems to be get in ahead of Chinese, inflation data from USA was much higher than forecast, (little wonder with oil climbing and their dollar down) and lower in the uk and EU as their currencies high, big moves seemingly led by platinum in the last week which is up up up big time on super thin volumes - big moves in pound and yen and as a result many many items including gold up, lower 10 year bond yield signalling danger but think its the Japanese going nuts in their carry trade search for yield and instruction by thier PM to state pension funds take on more risk.....wild times,
they couldn't have asked for better, futures expiry this morning
