Gold Tumbles Most Since December 2008

Gold plunged in New York, heading for the biggest drop in 18 months, on speculation that financial markets may be stabilizing, eroding the appeal of the precious metal a haven. climbing speculative demand from investors had pushed the market into a “bubble that is poised to burst.”


Before today, gold’s 14-day relative strength had been above 70 since Aug. 8, a signal to technical traders that prices are poised to fall.

    Just weak long liquidation. Even Sinclair said things would become crazy after 1764. He was right, although I wouldn't necessarily
    call this crazy. An $18.80 stock going to $17.63 isn't crazy, nor is an $1880 gold price going to $1763.

    Gold tumbles most since Dec 2008?

    I believe gold bottomed in November 2008 so December would have been an up month. Maybe you meant December 2009?

    The tumble today was because the word was leaked about another CME margin hike. Has little to do with financial conditions stabilizing as the banks
    were getting crushed for the past 7 months. One good up day out of 7 months isn't exactly a stabilization of the financial system...but it's a start.
