 Time to give up on the CFTC  |
| Gene Arensberg has an article out on the COMEX price smash where he concludes that:
"in order for the initial 124 tonne sale to have occurred “legally” it would have had to have been 14 traders, all with zero orders open, all acting simultaneously, all acting independently, in their own self-interest, without colluding with each other to “sell-for-effect” or conspiring to foment a price smash.
In actuality, the chances that there were 14 traders who held zero open orders all acting independFriday, May 24, 2013 |

| Gold Connection Now A Disconnection |
| IN THE NEWS By Cliona O'Dowd, Eureka Report Gold's rollercoaster ride since April has the market spooked. But, for small investors keen to hold physical gold, the lure of the precious metal is proving too tempting to resist. Since gold futures prices plunged over $US200 a troy ounce in the space of two days in April, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) around the globe, including Australian-listed ETF Securities, have recorded massive outflows. At the same time, many small investors have pounced on tThursday, May 23, 2013 |

History’s Best Gold Buying Opportunity – Dr Baltin  |
| There is only one difference between a bad
economist and a good one: The bad economist confines himself to the
visible effect; the good economist takes into account both the effect
that can be seen and more importantly, those effects that must be
foreseen. The bad economist pursues a small, present good that will be
followed by a great evil to come, while the good economist pursues a
great good to come, at theMonday, May 13, 2013 |

| Further Declines in Gold |
| These past few weeks it seems like paper gold is out and physical gold is in.
The fall in the price of gold has triggered a new run on physical gold that shows no sign of abating. Record amounts of money have exited ‘paper,’ i.e. futures and ETFs, and headed straight to the bank or the mint to be exchanged for coins and bullion bars, that is if one can get them. The strength of physical retail buying has taken dealers and mints around the world by surprise, leaving them scrambling to keep up wTuesday, May 07, 2013 |

Not much of a case  |

"A reader alerted me to the fact that Bron Suchecki, one of the proprietors of the Perth Mint - the notoriously untrustworthy and fractional bullion account seller - made the claim that there's plenty of 400 oz. gold bullion bars to be had on the world market. This isSunday, May 05, 2013 |

| Perth - Australia's Capital City Of Gold |
| Name the things that influence your perception of Perth and beautiful weather, fine wine, sand and surf probably spring to mind. But Australia's fourth largest city can also claim to be one of the world's most important centres for gold. According to The Perth Mint's Bron Suchecki, it's something that a lot of people don't realise about "little old Perth". Earlier today, Bron highlighted some of Perth's golden credentials on ABC 720's Breakfast Show with Eoin Cameron (listen here)Thursday, May 02, 2013 |

| As if the rays of the sun were turned into solid form |
| I did an eight minute interview today on local Perth radio on the Perth Mint and gold. Got a bit poetic towards the end on why primitive man was attracted to gold, which a few collegues thought was funny as I'm supposed to be the analytical numbers person. My inner goldbug coming out.

"Demand out of Asia was exceptional last week: Indian demand was the strongest we’ve seen in five years, while volumes and premiums on the Shanghai Gold Exchange reached record highs. This seemingly insatiable appetite is not necessarily limited to the region, though.

 Chill out dudes  |
| OK, it is all getting a bit silly out there on the gold interwebs, particularly in respect of the supposed physical-paper price disconnect. I have been trying to kill this meme ever since it first appeared in 2008 but it seems the idea of production capacity shortages seems too difficult for many to get.
The "real" price of gold isn't what you pay for a 1oz coin on eBay. As Mish says "Premiums on small denomination coins is not the same a general premium on physical gold itself." But don't taMonday, April 29, 2013 |
