 Trumpxuberance… Until It’s Not  |
| “Markets shrugged off the Brexit vote in a couple of days. They shrugged off Donald Trump’s election in a single day. They shrugged off the Italian referendum result in a couple of hours. Heck, in this mood they would shrug off an alien invasion of planet Earth.”
— Albert Edwards, Société Générale
At this time of year, only the hardest, coldest heart can fail to show good will to fellow man. That said, the silvery orb of Donald Trump’s post-electMonday, December 12, 2016 |

 IMF Gold Sales – Where ‘Transparency’ means ‘Secrecy’ |
| Welcome to the twilight zone of IMF gold sales, where transparency really means secrecy, where on-market is off-market, and where IMF gold sales documents remain indefinitely “classified” and out of public view due to the “sensitivity of the subject matter”.
Off and On Market
Between October 2009 and December 2010, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) claims to have sold a total of 403.3 tonnes of gold at market prices using a combination of ‘off-market’ sales and ‘on-market’ sales. ‘Off-marketMonday, September 5, 2016 |

| The Future of Russia and Gold |
| What are the prospects for the Russian economy and its possible impact on global markets and gold? This year Russia is going to slide into recession (the CBR estimated that the economy will shrink 4.5 percent, if oil stays at $60/barrel). This is one that could last a while, unless there is a reverse in trends of oil prices (affected to a large extent by the greenback), and the government follows credible monetary policy, and decides to implement systemic reforms. Actually, with double-digit infTuesday, February 24, 2015 |

A Tale of Two Markets: Gold Market Manipulation in NY and London  |
| "It is to be regretted that the rich and powerful too often bend the acts of government to their selfish purposes... There are no necessary evils in government. Its evils exist only in its abuses. If it would confine itself to equal protection, and, as Heaven does its rains, shower its favors alike on the high and the low, the rich and the poor, it would be an unqualified blessing."

| Insider Buying of Gold Stocks Surges to Multi-Year Highs |
| Insider activity is often one of the best indicators of future share price trends. When there are 7 times more insider buy transactions vs. sell transactions, those in the know have become extremely bullish. I think this is an indication that the bottom is near or has already been reached. Given the oversold conditions, particularly when looking at the HUI to gold ratio, now seems like an opportune time to build or add to positions in mining stocks.
Note that the HUI-to-gold ratio has now drThursday, March 28, 2013 |
