He's gone out of juice. Probably cathing up when fiat sent from gox arrives at stamp.

No, mt.gox will always be more expensive than Bitstamp

I disagree with painting it so broadly. It is certainly possible that Mt. Gox changes its protocols to make withdrawals easier. If the outside factors were to remain static, maybe this could stand.

The spread is the greater with larger volatility, while BSTP catches up during times of low volatility like right now.

When the exchange rate decreases, the gap decreases. When the exchange rate increases, the gap increases. So far, at least.

That is always true for total numbers (total USD amounts) but it becomes confusing and less fungible when you want to compare this spread at different price levels. I therefore recommend we measure this spread in %.

By writing this the current spread is around 9% (123 USD BTSP/133 USD MTG)

Difference between gox and stamp is down to USD 9. Will stamp soon take the price lead?
