Actually gold traded flat through the last few financial panics. In a financial panic, margin calls occur, risky assets are unloaded, and gold is a risky asset.

The market is totally panicking," said a trader at a big Japanese bank. "The fact that the Fed had to announce its emergency steps on Sunday night highlighted the seriousness of the situation."
The dollar fell to 95.77 yen on electronic trading platform EBS, down more than 3 percent on the day, before rebounding to 96.20 yen. The U.S. currency was on track to posting its biggest drop of the year against the Japanese unit.
The euro hit a fresh peak of $1.5905 on EBS but then retreated to $1.5866, up 1.2 percent.
The dollar dropped as low as 0.9572 Swiss franc, an all-time low, then rebounded to 0.9715, down 2.7 percent.
Deepening concerns about the U.S. financial system prompted investors to shift their funds to safe-haven gold, boosting spot gold to a record peak over $1,030 per ounce.
TOKYO, March 17 (Reuters) – Japan's government struggled to resolve a deadlock over a new central bank chief on Monday, just two days before the current governor retires, but chances of a breakthrough were unclear even as market turmoil took the dollar to fresh lows and battered Tokyo stocks.

Without a resolution this weekend, the company's situation would have continued to deteriorate when markets resumed trading, according to analysts and investors. Yet the value placed on Bear Stearns, which employs about 14,000 people, raised questions about share prices for the rest of Wall Street.

Yup, looks like gold is being unloaded. 🙂 I’m no gold expert, but the research I’ve done actually points to it responding very positively during financial panics and much less during “normal” inflationary periods…eventhough it’s so commonly thought of as a hedge against inflation.
Seems like the last time this happened, the Japanese fired up the printing presses and got the Yen back down. I think that still works. Stay tuned.
