Indisputable Proof Paper Gold Markets are Massively Manipulated
What would you think if someone told you the following?"Three times this week, I am going to tell you the low price of gold with near perfect accuracy, and one of those three times, I am going to tell you events that will precede the low and the exact time that gold prices will crash."You would likely conclude that either:(1) I am somehow directly involved in setting the price of gold in paper derivative markets, or(2) that since nearly perfectly predicting gold price movements three times in on

  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 ta

Shedding Light On “How The Gold Market Was Crashed” My Discussions with Mr. Downey
Unless investors have been living under a rock of late, we all know what took place in the gold and silver markets this past Friday.  There is no need to get into all the technical talk again.  This post will deal with something completely different. As you all know I have been quite vehement in my attacks on the perma-bulls that have never wavered from their manipulation conspiracies that are especially ramped up after a significant market event like occurred this past Friday.  It should be k

Gold - Are We There Yet? 
It has been a 1.5-2 year sideways affair for the precious metals (PM), depending on whether you look at silver (peak in April of 2011) or Gold (peak in August of 2011). PM stocks, on the other hand, have done quite a bit worse than go sideways. While the more conservative Gold has only fallen a maximum of 20% from its August of 2011 highs, the more volatile silver and senior PM stock indices (e.g., XAU, HUI, GDX) have both fallen close to 50%. The junior PM stock sector has been decimated, with

Leonard Melman: Are You Prepared for Hyperinflation?
The Gold Report: You recently told a crowd of investors at Prospectors & Developer Association of Canada (PDAC) that precious metals are the best place to invest in an inflationary period. Why is that? Leonard Melman: When prices are going up, you wouldn't want to be in housing stocks or auto financing, but you would certainly want to be in precious metals. You also might want to short the bond market. That is why you have to be aware of the direction of inflation. It is important to the conce

Currency Wars: Bye Bye Petrodollar – Buy, Buy Gold 
Competitive currency devaluations are in effect a continuation of currency debasement. Debasement is simply the devaluing of one's currency or money. In ancient and medieval history it used to be done through the clipping of gold and silver coins. Today it is done through excessive money creation through the printing of, and indeed the electronic creations of billions and billions of dollars, pounds, euros and other fiat currencies. Indeed, today central bankers are creating billions and billions of electronic money simply by pressing a few buttons on a computer.

  Why Does The "Paper Gold" Price Track The Physical Gold Price ? 
It's curious, isn't it? So-called "paper gold" (a futures contract) has a price that is not only very close to physical gold, but it remains locked to it. This is despite the fact that "paper gold" is reviled in the gold community. I am writing this on Sunday evening with little liquidity in the market, and yet spot gold (XAU) is 1665.80 and the December future (GC Z3) is 1674.40.
