Perhaps the Exchange Stabilization Fund played a role in manifesting those lower gasoline prices, perhaps not.

Could that be enough of a trigger event to launch gold out of the range-bound pricing that we have been living with for the past few months? Equities (currently) are only down slightly on that great piece of economic news, but there's plenty of time left in the trading day for the financial news networks to spin it as positively bullish for stocks.
