Steep Drop in Gold Foreshadowed Past Events

The rapidity of gold's drop is impressive, concerning, and disorderly. We have seen two other such instances of disorderly 'hurried' selling in the last five years. In July 2008, gold quickly dropped 21% - seemingly pre-empting the Lehman debacle and the collapse of the western banking system. In September 2011, gold fell 20% in a short period - as Europe's risks exploded and stocks slumped prompting a globally co-ordinated central bank intervention the likes of which we have not seen before. Given the almost-record-breaking drop in gold in the last few days, we wonder what is coming?

Probably war and a police state crackdown on us, considering the coinciding bombings. I hope I am too negative though.
"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered....The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs."

Correlates with this view below, the full origin of which I haven't been able to re-create, but was from an analyst last year who said to watch out for a market peak in the first 2-5 months of 2013 followed by a PM crash. A full-up crash of the entire market would likely follow between May and October.
