With the New Year upside in gold looking pretty solid, we hearken back to a post made here December 10 featuring the following chart (with comments):

Here is what that chart looks like now with the December low in place at $1121/oz and the January turnaround – kicked off, I would guess, by aggressive short-covering, but likely now also driven by currency and longer-term inflation concerns. . . . .With gold currently trading in the vicinity of $1183, it is already up 5.5% from the December low.
We caution that just because gold has displayed a pattern in the past, it does not mean that same pattern or tendency will repeat itself in the future, so exercise due caution with this information.
