Well, I sure didn't see that coming. However, I'm pretty sure that no one saw an August US deficit of $380,000,000,000 coming, either. That cold slap to face brought about a Keynesian reality check and the Comex PMs were bid all the way through the weekly close.
And what a week it was! From the Comex close last Friday to the Comex close today, CDG was up $86 and CDS was up a whopping $2.88! Not to be outdone, the shares got in the act, too, with the GDX up $3.46 on the week or about 9.5%.
Of course, next week will bring its own set of challenges and we can't be certain...
