I'm shocked! shocked, that gambling is going on there.
Of course this won't have any effect on gold... or will it?

Yes, but the after hours market in Asia has very low volume. What will be more interesting is to see what happens when Europe opens, around 4 AM Eastern time (IIRC).

US S&P futures down -1.5% , ouch!  If this sticks overnight it's the most excitement /volatility I've seen in a long time, takes me back to August 2011 fiscal cliff days...  ;D

Will be interesting if this can be papered over yet again by central banks or if this is the start of something serious.  I have been happy with the gold I hold, and this certainly is one reason.
