At the same time, the Money Managers or “Funds” are likely adding to their net long position, which was still relatively small on May 7 at just 9k.
This does not necessarily mean that Gold peaks tomorrow. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if it continued a little higher to allow Funds to add more longs and Banks more shorts before the latter smash the price lower again. We’ve seen this time and again from the Bullion Banks. However, this time it may be for a more positive reason.
The Banks want to be long when the next rally in Gold takes place, as it plans to be a massive one to new highs, imho. At the same time, they will want to squeeze out as many weak longs as possible before that rally occurs. They can do both at the same time by driving the price down, and then when it takes on a momentum of its own to the downside, start taking profits on their shorts and adding long positions while the Funds add shorts. When the Banks are sufficiently long, then Gold takes off.
