Gold: A Real Short Squeeze Is Coming

Once all the speculators that have been shorting gold discover that their premise is wrong, that we are not getting this vibrant recovery and that we are not going to get less QE (we are going to get more) and that we are not going to have rate hikes, that the Federal Reserve is going to keep interest rates at zero in order to prop up this phony bubble economy that they inflated, you are going to see a mad rush from all the short sellers that are going to be anxious to buy back their money losing positions.

But that`s going to be a lot more difficult because there is not going to be a lot of gold around. Because a lot of the gold that was liquidated in the second half of 2013 is not going to be available for sale in the second half of 2014. That gold was probably purchased by entities that never intend to sell it. So, I think we are going to have a real short squeeze and we are going to have a big rally probably beginning here in the second half of 2014.
