Why does rigging of the gold market matter? The economist Alasdair Macleod, GoldMoney's research director, today provides the answer he said he gave recently to a BBC radio program.
"A freely determined gold price is central to ensuring that reality and not financial bubbles guides us in our financial and economic activities," Macleod writes, "Suppressing the gold price is rather like turning off a fire alarm because you can't stand the noise." His commentary is headlined "A Difficult Question" and it's posted at his Internet site, Finance and Economics, here:
