Short term upside to gold

You'd have to be a little more positive about gold at these times; principally for 2 reasons:
1. Prospects for ongoing low interest rates
2. Prospects of tensions in Iran, the Straits of Hormuz - as Iran borders the channel through which oil exports flow. This issue is of course escalating because Iran is building a nuclear weapon.

The reality however for gold is that its going to be a short battle, with the US eventually destroying key military capacity, the nuclear facilities, as well as retaining air and sea superiority.
