Good day to you xe2dy, I'm aware of the vote, and I've even heard rumors that France might vote it down but other then that I haven't paid too much attention to it. I'm aware that eventually $GOLD will not care what the dollar does as it will trade as its own GLOBAL & INDEPENDENT currency, I'm not sure when that divergence will become apparent, but it will happen. Now the question on the European Constitution, if it does get voted down, I'd imagine the Euro would weaken and the dollar would of course strengthen, but this in fact would also be a positive for $GOLD I would think... I would think this would reveal that the Euro is just as unsafe and exposable as the U.S. dollar, we shall see, it's all noise for now and the cabal of global central bankers will do what they wish... the question becomes when will it all come crashing down???
