The Treasury didn't really step in until they saw that a run on the dollar was shaping up. The Chinks had an article in the state run newspaper about moving away from the USD towards other currencies. That sent Gold from $730 and OZ to apx $900 in 2 days.

So what does it matter if your money is NO GOOD?
