If stocks turn down again with a vengeance I shall expect gold to start "trending" up again. IF stocks moved up to make new highs (Very unlikely) the gold correlation would most likely revert back to positive with stocks. The negative correlation is likely to remain for so long as there is real fear in the mkts but during corrective periods we shall see some intra day sideways action also. Perfectly possible that gold has not finished its move down yet, just wish patterns were clearer.
On this occasion my perspective is very wooly :-)
"..Short-selling interest in S&P 500 stocks has reached its
highest since November last year as investors piled on bearish bets in
the past month, the FT reports. Until last month, shorting interest had
fallen to its lowest since at least 2008, according to Data Explorers.."
