The natural gas markets bounced on Monday as traders piled into the market to offer support. The $4.00 to $4.20 area has been strong support in the past, so this move isn't all that surprising. The market will more than likely bounce from this point, and should be good for several cents from here. If you have a longer-term view – you can buy and hold until we get to $4.80 or so.

However, gold should get a bid from the fact that the situation in Europe isn't getting any better. Because of this – we buy on dips.
