Well let me count the ways you could be wrong since you are in a herd trade and I am long gold but at much lower levels:
1) You were a Southern Cal property buyer in 2005 and put no money down but hey, there is no way to go but up.
2) You loved the Nasdaq at 4000 and even more at 5000 in Mar 2000--because there was no way to go but up.
3) Oil looked like a screaming buy at $148 because there was no way to go but up.
I'll give you a viable scenario:
The stock market starts to tank since the Fed truly does not control it and the bear market rally ends. The dollar hits bottom and the greatest short squeeze of all time starts to take hold in a global de-risk trade. This continues for about a year--say 16 months like the first leg down in the stock market. Deflation truly takes hold even with the printing presses rolling. Gold retraces several hundred dollars as the Chinese, Indians, and every other country buying IMF gold feels a sense of ease that their dollar denominated debt is safe after all. That puts us to sometime in 2011---gold has retraced and languished.
Long term yes--there is support (unlike the tits that Robo posted on the close-up). But anything can happen in the next year and anyone piling in now is playing with the same bunch of sheep that are long the stock market and shorting the dollar. THREE very crowded trades. Can't wait for the squeeze to begin.
