There appears to be a material deviation on apparent US dollar strength (or euro weakness) as the gold price finds strength from physical demand, inflation fears and gold as a currency.

Gold has lagged behind what many analysts had expected or hoped given the prevailing dollar weakness, ... Gold has seen some liquidation, from one fund in particular, and I suspect that is still weighing on the market.

There appears to be an acceptance of a weaker dollar trend even if Europe and Japan are not happy with it. The Americans are probably only too happy to see the dollar depreciate.

Sometimes our greatest strength come from our weakness.

You are human and mortal; we are the sum of our weak moments and our strong.

A lot of what we experience as strength comes from knowing what to do with weakness.
