Gold jumps above $4,200 as US yields fall- was that an overreaction?

The reaction across the markets to all that US data we just noted has seen US yields drop back and that has seen the 10 year note slip, but in reality not really by that  much. Nevertheless, the reaction in Gold has been positive and the metal shot back above the $4,200 handle. Gold rose as high as $4,219.33, but it has almost immediately pared the move.

So, was that an overreaction? Well, we think it was but the markets are pretty thin this afternoon and we would not be surprised if the move higher is not sustained, but we shall have to see on that. Anyway, it is falling back right now and currently trading at $4,208.50
