   When the stupidest country on Earth buys gold (India buys 200 tons at 1040   
   dollars US) that's when to sell it short down to 500 dollars an ounce.   
   America will likely look like Japan with at least 10 years of no growth.   
   America is lying about the GDP, unemployment and the stock market has been   
   manipulated since March 9th by the bankers and the US government. They buy   
   at 9:30am and 3:00pm. At some point in time the stock market will lose 50 to   
   90 percent and like you said gold will likely fall to 500 dollars an ounce.
