Get yourself some gold or silver tomorrow, even if you just intend to flip it short term. I don't see how this couldn't be bullish. Then again, the manipulators have surprised me in the past.

Wait, are you serious? Dow Futures are down 100 points right now... Are you serious as in the dollar going to the moon? Should I sell some of my extra extra gold I have to make a quick buck and buy on a low? What do you forsee this week with the dollar rise and gold prices? I would imagine markets will rally very high this week on hope?
