re: "The price of gold will go to and through $3500."
I'm don't much respect pundits who make predictions but don't assign a time frame. When, pray tell, will gold go to $3,500? Tomorrow? In October? 200 years from now?
Seems kind of chicken$#!+ to just say it's going to $3,500. Yeah? Well so will chewing gum. Take that, Mr. Sinclair.
Predictions are risky, and I respect those who make them and put their reputations on the line. Jim Sinclair, though, has made a prediction that can NEVER be proven wrong. Where's the risk in that???
I'd even be content if he'd say "Gold will go to $3,500 before it experiences another 10 percent pullback." There. No time frame, but at least it's a prediction that's ultimately going to be proven right or wrong. But his current prediction, if I'm seeing the whole thing, seems to be utterly gutless.

Gold is $1,581/oz today. When it hits $2,000, it will be up 26.5%. Let's see how long that takes. - De 3/11/2013 - ANSWER: 7 Years, 5 Months
