Gold surged above $1,200/oz. on Monday in its best day since January, amid reports Friday that Venezuela's central bank had converted 1.4M oz. of its gold reserves into at least $1B in cash through a swap with Citibank.
  • "That was a huge potential seller taken out of the market. It's not an overhang anymore," Dennis Gartman said on the Venezuela deal.
  • Other gold watchers say the bigger factor driving prices was the expiration of May options and short covering; an increase of 13K shorts in the market is a positive since those traders could be forced to buy gold when they cover, says Kevin Grady of Phoenix Futures and Options.
