GOLD CLOSES $13.00 HIGHER TODAY.....

Today's Gold trade was very strong in response to a very WEAK U.S. Dollar (39 points LOWER at Gold close) and a very STRONG Crude Oil rally (UP 150+ points at Gold close). This housing sector foreclosure debacle is beginning to effect the commercial property sector. This certainly is not good news for the Dollar. The Gold traded in a $ 11.10 dollar range today.
