Is the "New Normal" for Increased Volatility?

Considering that lots of money is being invested by hedge funds using leverage, is the new normal to have huge volatility? For example, gold has dropped quite a bit in the last couple weeks. I wonder if it drops a little more, will it cause margin calls and a huge dump in price?

It has NO effect on how I will invest in the PP. It would perhaps even make the PP better because if gold experiences a huge dump, then perhaps another of the PP assets will jump.
