Nobody Knows

Where is no one looking right now? Why is no one talking about something? I am away at my coastal office and I can’t get the yellow metal off my mind. There is something going on and everyone I talk to says “I don’t know how they are doing it. Nobody knows.”

I am starting to smell a huge, massive, uncontrollable bullish move somewhere. Not only that, the volatility is cheap cheap cheap. Why is it cheap? Because nobody is looking at it. When they start to, volatility will expand real quick.

How is gold being held down? Recently, it was at all time highs when viewed against the other major currencies. How is it being held down? More important, how is it being held down against the US dollar? Nobody knows. Nobody knows.

If whatever they are doing to hold it down starts to reverse, you could see the yellow metal double or triple in the matter of a month.

I don’t know how they are holding it down. But they are. And if the manipulation they are engaging in starts to reverse, they’ll be caught red handed.

Caught trying the oldest trick in the book.

Peace

  • The shiny metal has always interested me. What is the best one to buy for a trade in gold? I always read your research and apply it to my investment.
    Thanks.

  • $ has been well bid lately against euro and pound and this may continue as BoE and ECB cut rates further as they shoud. But secular case against $ rolls on, if anything, all the money printing and bailing out the fed and treasury has made the case even stronger.

    Long term oriented folks should be accumulating all the weak dollar plays (GLD, SLV, USO, DBA, DBC) over the next 3-6 months. Seeds planted here will pay off handsomely on anything other than a short team view.

    Good luck to all.
