May 11 - Gold $376.70 down $1.60 - Silver $5.51 down 24 cents

Gold Shares Continue To Rebound

Zitat

"If ever there was an area in which to do the exact opposite of that which government and the media urge you to do, that area is the purchasing of gold." - Robert Ringer

Gold came in lower in line with a weaker dollar, fell sharply, then put in a good rally, but twice failed to take out the unchanged mark and stay there. Disgusted gold bulls jettisoned positions going into the close and bullion closed in new low ground.

Silver was a disaster right from the beginning. It came in lower and failed to move up with gold all day long. Late in the date, silver plummeted, also making a new low close for the move in dreadful price action.

Thanks to what The Gold Cartel precipitated, we have almost a complete disconnect between the Comex paper market and what is going on in the real physical gold/silver market world. Most likely this disconnect is unprecedented. By only looking at the Comex price action, you would think the physical gold market is falling apart. Nothing could be further from the truth, which will become evident when you read John Brimelow’s commentary.

In addition, my STALKER source told me this morning refiners and miners in North America and Canada will no longer sell physical to dealers looking for bullion at the price melt value, which has been the case in the past. They want a premium these days. As far as silver goes, they are just not letting it go at any price to dealers looking for supply at the source with the Comex silver price this cheap.

The gold open interest rose 1319 contracts to 254,913. Spec shorts continue to build their positions. This is with producers covering their own shorts. HSBC was in there today for sure covering more gold producer shorts.

The silver open interest rose 1275 contracts - most likely new longs who were flushed out today.

The euro was weak all day, but did manage a late rally as soon as gold closed, finishing only .10 lower to 118.52. The finished at 91.93, up only .08 after being sharply higher most of the day.

A refinery blow up in Southern Iraq and a pronouncement by the Algerian Oil Minister saying he was against any OPEC oil output increase sent the price of oil up sharply. It finally closed above $40 per barrel at $40.06, up $1.13. Wall Street basically continues to yawn at the relentless oil price climb.

Many of the financial markets have gone one way in their view of future trends – many to the extreme. There is a record short spec position in the 10-year note on the CBT. The bullish consensus on the euro is very low with most betting on a higher dollar. Fifty two out fifty four of JP Morgan’s clients believe interest rates are headed higher. The capitulation in the gold and silver markets has been extraordinary.

Meanwhile, the geopolitical developments for the US continue to worsen, as surely will the Iraqi porno scandal. The Army Times is now calling for the resignation of Rumsfeld and Meyers.

It strikes me how out of control the manipulation of markets has become since GATA came into being in January of 1999. A case in point was the recent April jobs number, which showed surprising (to most every economist) job gains of 288,000. The effects of this pronouncement was substantial:

*President Bush’s political opponents have been silenced to a great degree in their decrying the jobless recovery.
*The dollar soared.
*Gold was clobbered, helping to defuse inflation concerns.
*Intermediate to long rates rose.

Since the number was released, all of the Wall Street pundits I have seen on the tube have taken it for granted the jobs picture is on the mend and this last important phase in the economic recovery is finally on track. It is now part of their economic/market analysis. There is almost no questioning this mysterious job build by any of the mainstreamers on Wall Street. But, is it on track? Do these numbers represent reality? Just today, MCI announced they are going to lay off another 7,500 people.

The real question is was this number fabricated to suit other agendas? Let us go back to what the Hoisington Investment Management Company in Austin, Texas wrote "Incidentally, 270,000 of the April job gains came from the birth/death model, a statistical extrapolation rather than a direct increase in the job head count. Previously the model was called a plug."

The very sharp maverick journalist John Crudele picked up the same theme today:

WHAT ARE THEY SMOKING AT THE LABOR DEPT.?

By JOHN CRUDELE

May 11, 2004 -- DON'T get too excited about all those new jobs that were supposed to have been created in April.

I'm not going to waste a lot of my precious space on this, but the bottom line is that most of the 288,000 jobs that the Labor Department says were created last month may not really exist.

They could be figments of statisticians' optimism.

Anyone who plodded through my column last Thursday knows I predicted that job growth in April would be better than the 160,000 to 170,000 jobs that the "pros" were anticipating.

But I also said, quite emphatically I hope, that the stronger growth would be an illusion - the result of the Labor Department's computers making happy predictions about seasonal job creation that could neither be verified nor justified.

I'll explain one aspect.

Back in the March employment report, the government added 153,000 positions to its revised total of 337,000 new jobs because it thought (but couldn't prove) loads of new companies were being created in this economy.

That estimate comes from the Labor Department's "birth/death model." You can look up these numbers on the Department's Web site.

As staggering as the assumption about new companies was in March, the Labor Department got even more brazen in April.

Last Friday, it was disclosed that these imaginary jobs had been increased by 117,000 to 270,000 for the latest month - because, I guess, the stat jockeys got a vision from the gods of spring.

Without those extra 117,000 make-believe jobs, the total growth for April would have been just 171,000 - sub-par for an economy that's supposed to be growing at more than 4 percent a year, but right on the pros' targets.

Take away all 270,000 make-believe jobs and, well, you have the sort of pessimism that the political pollsters are seeing.

If I was the suspicious type (and if I thought Washington was smart enough), I'd suspect a nasty motive behind the sudden surge in these mystery jobs. But for now, let's just acknowledge their existence.

Also keep in mind that the government doesn't distinguish between good companies being created and, say, a guy doing consulting work out of his basement because he can't find real work…

-END-

Thus, the jobs number, which appears to be a phony one when it comes to the real world, has had an enormous impact on the financial markets and was a real plus to the Bush re-election campaign strategists. An unintended consequence has been the stock market setback. You know what they say about the best laid plans.

Based on the real jobs growth number, it also may mean the Fed is not going to raise interest rates this summer because the economy is indeed weaker than the Washington Fed/political folks are willing to let on.

As far as the markets go, this one way bet, one based on increasingly obvious false premise, is likely to turn with a vengeance very soon. Bonds (with a potentially exploding oil price a caveat), the euro, gold, and silver should rally very sharply. Surely, gold and silver should not be down here with oil taking out key resistance at $40 per barrel.

Gold needs to take out $380 as a first step. If it does, it ought to run back up to $390 for starters.

The John Brimelow Report

Kilo bar shortage!

Tuesday, May 11, 2004

Indian ex-duty premiums: AM $10.08, PM $8.28, with world gold at $379.40 and $377. Continuing far above legal import point. Reuters ran from Singapore a particularly striking story on the upswing in demand for physical:

"Premiums for gold bars in Asia are at their highest this year…dealers said on Tuesday. Gold bars in Hong Kong and Singapore were 40 U.S. cents a kg over London physical prices, compared with 30 U.S. cents last week. Premiums were also firmer in other trading centres such as South Korea and Malaysia… "Premiums have gone up to 80 to 90 cents in Malaysia compared with 60 cents a few months back," said a dealer in Singapore

"There's a shortage of kilobars. We can't get any stock," said the trader who mainly deals with Malaysia, which is one of the region's main gold jewellery makers…. Fresh physical demand was also reported in the Middle East, where there appears to be shortage of bullion, said dealers."

"I would expect physical demand from India to sort of taper off because of the end of the festive purchasing season," said a dealer in Bombay. "Buyers are well-stocked. Traders reported a 40 percent increase in sales during February-March-April period compared with the same period last year."
(JB emphasis.)

Reuters curiously headlines this story "India slows down", once again confusing a prediction by an India dealer with fact. Indian bullion importers want maximum throughput, and frequently talk down their country’s appetite. The remark about a 40% increase over 2003 is notable, however. Judging by the premiums, India was out of the import market far longer this year during these months: the implication is that April was enormous, just as the premiums have been suggesting.

Claims that kilo bar supply is tight – a function of refinery capacity world wide – are rarely seen. Based on the experience of the BoE-devastated gold market in mid ‘99, India ignores seasonal factors if word gold is deemed cheap.

Despite a weaker yen, Japan lost interest in gold today. Volume slumped 49% to only the equivalent of 19,580 Comex lots, and open interest slipped the equivalent of 1,155 Comex to equal 115,210 NY lots. The active contract closed up 18 yen, a two-week high, and world gold was 85c above the NY close. (NY yesterday traded 64,446 contracts, with open interest rising 1,332 lots to 254,926.)

There is a surprising degree of consensus amongst the Dealer-commentators that yesterday’s early morning weakness was fund selling. UBS is particularly explicit:

Zitat

"The main action took place during Asia and European hours, when speculators continued in establishing new shorts. Caught short after the first push after the first half hour of trading gold reversed its…and the market never looked back again until it peaked near $380"

Standard London says:

Zitat

"…excellent support was provided by the physical sector"

The fact that open interest is edging upwards supports the concept of a substantial sort interest. No doubt this will be defended. In view of the reports from the key physical markets it is not likely to prove wise.

CARTEL CAPITULATION WATCH

The DOW made it back above 10,000 to 10,019 up 30, while the DOG leaped 33 to 1931.

GATA’s Mike Bolser:

Hi Bill:

The Fed added $5.25 Billion in repos today, May 11th 2004, an action that edged the repo pool up to $36.92Billion.

Things seem hectic over at DOW Central but the Fed isn't acting too worried about it judging by the repo action. Viewing the DOW's 30-day ma, it has dipped ever-so-slightly down but the green trace still is about the same distance below the Labor Day target line than it was above it, so the over all pattern appears under control. This could change if the ma starts to turn sharply.

[Blockierte Grafik: http://www.lemetropolecafe.com/img2004/repos0511.jpg]

Based only on the clear repo happenings prior to the "Iraq War Rally" we have an excellent indicator to gauge the Fed when it's under a "Full court press" condition. They roll out the permanent open market operations (which can then be used as collateral to buy DOW futures) and pour on the temporary repos to ram the DOW higher. Also, we saw the Fed REMOVE DOW support going into what they knew was about to happen in order to magnify the "Rally".

Based on the indicators above, the equity situation is still well under the Fed's control as they hammer gold. The down pressure on gold may last a while but a good buy signal still exists for the metal.

The bonds are not doing so well as the 30-year trades exactly at its ceiling yield of 5.4%. Whatever interventional pressure the Fed has on bonds must be at full strength in order to keep them up.
Mike

Chuck checks in mid-day:

Starting to get relative strength in the shares, a good sign. Also, still gapping down on the opening. Rydex has continued to liquidate even on the up days, another good sign. With the dollar right at the 200 dma, we should get relief from its strength and a good rally ahead. The joker will be how the gold market reacts with the stock markets heading down.

Steve Saville, in his latest commentary at The Man Ray Table, went out of his way to bring up the following:

"Further to the above, we doubt that gold is weak because it is being manipulated lower. Rather, the weakness is most likely the result of a lot of highly-leveraged speculators desperately trying to squeeze through a narrow doorway at the same time."

What’s the phrase, something about there none are so blind than those who refuse to see. Bright men like Saville, Fleckenstein, and Mauldin, who do fine work, refuse to even deal with the notion the gold market is manipulated. This is their prerogative, of course. However, I find it less than adequate, to say the least, that none of them take the time to deal with the five years worth of evidence GATA has accumulated which makes it more than obvious, a veritable certainty, that blatant manipulation is exactly what the gold market has been about these past many years. Simplistically, anyone can utter the words, "I don’t believe there is gold market manipulation." The facts prove otherwise. The Not Invented Here Syndrome is alive, well, and flourishing.

A PS to Steve. Of course hedge fund operators and leveraged carry traders have been a major factor in this sharp gold/silver market downturn. The Gold Cartel knew full well of their positions and took a course of action to flush them out. Without the recent orchestrated attack on gold, it would be running towards $500 now, just as oil as taken out $40 per barrel.

The gold shares continued to rebound with the XAU up 1.41 to 81.35. The HUI jumped on market on close orders to 177.09, up 3.85.

HUI:

http://bigcharts.marketwatch.c…&o_symb=hui&freq=1&time=8

The gold shares seem to have bottomed out and have moved up with gold and silver continuing their trek down. Should gold move and silver move in the days and weeks ahead, which they should, the shares could put in an impressive rally from a deeply oversold technical condition.

GATA BE IN IT TO WIN IT!

MIDAS

Appendix

One of my readers has asked me what my thoughts are on the latest US jobs numbers and the ever-rising greenback. I suppose I can answer that with the same mantra that I've been espousing for months - the US recovery is built on ever-increasing levels of debt and money supply, it cannot be sustained, and it will end in disaster. The one thing that amazes me is that so many seemingly intelligent and experienced people still can't see what can only be described as the bleeding obvious, and continue to blather on about growth and rising interest rates, etc. The only piece of the jigsaw still missing, they intone, is a rise in wages and salaries. But, they add, this will surely come.

I keep thinking that maybe I'm missing something. Maybe those twin deficits and all that debt doesn't matter after all. Maybe we can anticipate such an explosion in growth and, of course, inflation, that those piles of debt will simply melt away like mist in the morning sun. Maybe tax receipts from all those new workers (but the latest figures show the same number of people employed as in March, despite the hype) will erase the Budget deficit, and increased overseas demand will boost US exports and reduce the trade deficit. Maybe the occupation of Iraq will soon come to an end after the 'handover of sovereignty' to some Iraqis on June 30 (we still have no idea who they will be with only 6 weeks to go) and democracy will flower like a desert bloom. And maybe that proverbial porcine creature will sprout wings and float aloft.

It strikes me that there's an uncanny similarity between the PR disaster that's now unfolding in Iraq over prisoner abuse, and the monetary and fiscal policies that will ultimately bring down the American economy. We know that when Rumsfeld and his cronies launched the invasion of Iraq, they gave absolutely no thought as to how they would secure the peace. They didn't anticipate or plan for the insurgency that is now taking place, and gave no real no thought as to how to create a stable government. Instead there was an 'everything-will-turn-out-alright-because-we're-America-and-we're-invincible' theme. It's that same theme that governs economic policy from the Oval Office:-

"Recession? Hell we can't have that! Greenspan, pump the bubble back up and get that stockmarket moving. What's that? Debt levels too high? Just print some more dollars, everyone wants dollars don't they? This is America, they should be damn grateful to be getting our greenbacks! Whaddya mean there's no jobs being created? Reduce interest rates and keep Americans spending, that'll get business to hire. No Savings? Wwho needs savings? That's damn well unAmerican! It's every American's duty to spend every cent he has - and then some! Whaddya mean, what'll happen when rates have to go back up? Hell, I don't know - worry about that when the time comes. Don't you guys know there's an election coming up in November and my ass is on the line? Now Dick, what was that you were saying about Iraqi oil?"............................

The latest consensus on US interest rates is that by the end of the year the Fed Discount rate will be at 2%. Not much by historical standards, but for Joe Six-Pack, it means a DOUBLING in repayments on that interest only housing loan he took out last year. Can he manage that? Doubtful, when the rates on his credit cards climb too, plus any other loan he might have outstanding. What about those twin deficits? If the greenback continues its rise you can kiss goodbye to any export-led reduction in the trade deficit. And what about consumer spending? Ah, I hear someone say, the economy will be so robust that business expenditure will take over and relieve the consumer of his burden. But if the consumer stops spending because he's feeling the heat from rising interest rates, and 70% of the economy relies on domestic consumption, why would business want to spend on capex?

As for the Budget deficit, GWB has already asked Congress to approve another $25 billion for Iraq, that's on top of the $87 billion he got last year. And there's still no formal figure for 2005 included in Budget projections. Iraq is going to cost plenty in monetary and political terms. The only reason the forthcoming election isn't a certainty for the Democrats is that John Kerry is a colourless candidate who seems to be running his campaign on the 'don't-upset-anyone' principle. The trouble with that line is that you end up pleasing no one.

Overnight, GWB dug himself an even bigger hole over Iraq by saying Donald Rumsfeld is doing a "superb job." It's possible that he couldn't have made a more damaging statement. It only goes to demonstrate that Bush has no idea what he's doing - never has a more intellectually challenged leader presided over the world's most powerful nation. And never has a president been advised by a more zealous, ignorant, and dangerous bunch of dullards than those around Bush. Why Colin Powell hasn't resigned in disgust is beyond me - perhaps he's worried that if he goes, the only stabilising personality in the administration will go too. Perhaps Powell is a true patriot rather than a neo-colonial cowboy like his shabby colleagues.

Last night the Dow and the other stockmarket indices fell again, and so did all or Europe's markets. I ask again, if the US economic recovery is so robust and so sustainable, why should a piddling 25 bp rate rise be such a worry?

Ask Joe Six-Pack with that interest-only housing loan. He'll tell you.

Bush verhängt Wirtschaftssanktionen gegen Syrien

WASHINGTON - US-Präsident George W. Bush hat Wirtschaftssanktionen gegen Syrien verhängt.

Zitat

«Diese Politik der syrischen Regierung gefährdet die Stabilität der Region und untergräbt die Bemühungen der USA für einen umfassenden Frieden im Nahen Osten», so Bush in einer Stellungnahme.

Ein US-Abgeordneter teilte dazu in Washington mit, die Sanktionen umfassten unter anderem ein rigoroses Exportverbot und eine Beschränkung der Bankbeziehungen.

Die Massnahme war in der von konservativen Parlamentariern vorbereiteten Gesetzesvorlage damit begründet worden, Syrien unterstütze den Terrorismus und tue zu wenig, um das Einsickern von Extremisten ins Nachbarland Irak zu unterbinden.

Nach den Angaben werden durch die Verschärfung bereits bestehender Wirtschaftsbeschränkungen nun sämtliche Exporte der USA nach Syrien - bis auf humanitäre Güter wie Medikamente und Lebensmittel - untersagt.

Ausserdem sollten die Anlagen bestimmter syrischer Personen und Institutionen eingefroren werden. Zudem werde das Bankengeschäft eingeschränkt. Bush habe sich weitere Schritte vorbehalten, hiess es.

Der syrische Ministerpräsident Mohammed Nadschi Otri bezeichnete die Sanktionen als «ungerecht und ungerechtfertigt». 112258 may 04

In BILD verrät der Finder, wo er das Nugget entdeckte

In dieser Hand funkelt der größte deutsche Gold-Fund seit 200 Jahren

Von SIMONE WINDHOFF

[Blockierte Grafik: http://bilder.bild.t-online.de…d__bild,property=Bild.jpg]

Theuern – Die Hände des Rentners zittern ein bisschen, als er den Goldklumpen vorsichtig zwischen Zeigefinger und Daumen nimmt. Das Nugget ist etwas größer als ein 1-Cent-Stück und wiegt sagenhafte 9,6 Gramm. Löst dieser Brocken einen Goldrausch in Deutschland aus?

Der größte deutsche Goldfund seit 200 Jahren – so gelang er!

Heinz Martin (64) suchte etwas ganz anderes, als er nach dem Mittagessen im oberen Schwarzatal bei Katzhütte (Thüringen) spazieren ging. „Ich hielt Ausschau nach Abwurfstangen von Hirschgeweihen. Doch ich fand keine, wollte wieder nach Hause und schob mein Rad vorsichtig durch das Bächlein mit glitschigen Steinen.“

[Blockierte Grafik: http://bilder.bild.t-online.de…_teaser,property=Bild.jpg]

Plötzlich sah er im seichten Wasser etwas funkeln. Er bückte sich, griff nach dem glitzernden Teilchen und hielt einen goldigen Klumpen in der Hand. „Ich sagte vor mich hin: Das kann nicht wirklich Gold sein. Oder etwa doch?“ Er nahm den Fund mit nach Hause, zeigte ihn seiner Frau. Liane (64) strahlte und sagte sofort:

„Klar, ist das Gold!“

[Blockierte Grafik: http://bilder.bild.t-online.de…n__bild,property=Bild.jpg]

Um ganz sicher zu sein, zeigte er das Nugget dem Chef des Goldmuseums in Theuern. Dr. Markus Schade (49) begeistert: „Es ist reines Gold. Bis so ein großer Klumpen entsteht, vergehen mehrere tausend Jahre.“

Der Goldwert des Nuggets beträgt zwar nur 100 Euro, aber der Sammlerwert liegt bei 1500 Euro. Der Gold-Rentner will seinen Fund aber sowieso nicht zu Geld machen. „Das Prachtstück vererbe ich mal meiner Tochter!“

Darf der Finder seinen Schatz behalten?

Ja! Nach dem Bundesberggesetz handelt es sich um einen so genannten bergfreien Bodenschatz.

Ist noch mehr Gold im Bächlein?

„Das ist ziemlich wahrscheinlich“, sagt der Goldmuseums-Chef. Goldsucher müssen von Katzhütte auf der Landstraße Richtung Neuhaus am Rennweg fahren. Ein Kilometer nach dem Ortsausgang rechts in einen Wiesenweg. Nach 500 Metern erreicht man das Bächlein Katze und ist vielleicht ganz bald sehr, sehr reich...

Diesen Beitrag von Uwe Warmbein einem BWL Absolventen mit eigener Homepage, gepostet gestern bei W:O möchte ich Euch nicht vorenthalten.

Vor allem interessant zu lesen, wenn man berücksichtigt, dass Uwe Warmbein, noch am 6. Dezember 2002 vor einem Einstieg bei Gold, und Goldminen eindrücklich gewarnt hatte

"Wer auf Nummer sicher gehen will wartet den wirklichen Ausbruch ab"!

Erst am 8. Mai 03 endlich, sah er zögerlich

"einen Hoffnungsschimmer für die Gold Bugs"!

Warmbein hatte den damaligen grossen Anstieg beim Gold, und vor allem bei den Gold Minen total verschlafen. Seine Aussagen sind nachzulesen bei W:O in den Stckmove Threads. Viele seiner ihm heute wohl etwas peinlich erscheinenden, und damals auf seine Homepage verlinkten Charts, hat er zwischenzeitlich wohl nicht ohne Grund gelöscht. Die Texte stehen aber alle noch da.

Falls Du hier mitlesen solltest Uwe

Uwe Warmbein kann einem J. Sinclair nicht das Wasser reichen!

Selbst Mahendra lag mit seinen Prognosen häufiger richtig als Du!

Zudem haben beide, im Gegensatz zu Dir, den grossen Preisanstieg beim Gold von 318.- auf 380.- Dollar ab Dezember 2002 nicht verschlafen.

Du kennst Sinclair und Mahendra, sie kennen Dich jedoch nicht, und das sagt eigentlich schon alles.

Gruss

Die guten Ausbilder im Leben sind rückblickend immer diejenigen, die einem etwas beigebracht haben und nicht alles haben durchgehen lassen.

Kürzlich wurde ich kritisiert, etwas derbe über die "Gold-Lemminge" gelästert zu haben. Das kann ich annehmen und hoffe, niemandem zu nahe getreten zu sein. Vielleicht hat es jedoch bei dem einen oder anderen rechtzeitig etwas bewirkt und ihn vor Verlusten bewahrt.

Die Emotionalität beim Thema Gold und allem was damit zusammenhängt ist für mich ein Phänomen. Hier kann man wie in keinem anderen Markt die Verhaltensweisen von Anlegern studieren und die Irrationalitäten erkennen, die offensichtlich wie Ebbe und Flut ständig wiederkehren.

Normalerweise kauft man eine Aktie, wenn sie überverkauft ist (um es einmal verkürzt auszudrücken) und verkauft sie, wenn sie überkauft ist. Beim Thema Gold ist dies offensichtlich anders. Da verliebt man sich in sein Investment und am liebsten würde man es zum Kuscheln wie eine holde Braut mit in`s Bett nehmen. Ähnlich auch die Reaktion bei Kritik. Sagt man etwas gegen diese Braut, wird sie auf das Heftigste verteidigt.

Natürlich hat man eine Theorie im Hinterkopf, die das Investment rechtfertigt. Die Goldbugs als Masse führen sich auf wie ein elitärer Zirkel und einige von Ihnen halten sich scheinbar für die Speerspitze im Kampf gegen das marode Weltwährungssystem. Selbsternannte Gurus sprießen aus dem Boden und polarisieren zusätzlich. Machenschaften der " Gold-Mafia" werden täglich neu aufgedeckt und man hat alles durchschaut. Aber letztendlich werden sie von den Big Player´n immer wieder auf´s neue verheizt.

Da gibt es einen "Sinclair" , der bei jeder Gelegenheit betont, er sei mit allen Wassern der Branche gewaschen. Er wurde nicht müde, von einer gewaltigen Explosion des Silberpreises zu schwadronieren, die gigantischen Shortpositionen bei Silber würden bei einer Shortsqueeze schon dafür sorgen. (Eine professionell aufgemachte Internetseite allein bringt es jedoch nicht).

Da gibt es einen Wahrsager namens "Mahendra" , der eine andere Seite bedient.

Da gibt es die "Guten" , die dafür sorgen, dass Gold steigt und es gibt die "Bösen" , die alles kaputt machen. Da wird orakelt, warum diese oder jene Notenbank mal wieder die mühsam aufgebauten Luftschlösser zerstört oder welche finsteren Beweggründe die Rothschilds veranlasst haben, sich aus dem Goldmarkt zurückzuziehen. Mit Verlaub... das ist alles Kinderkacke. Weder eine Bundesbank, noch die Rothschilds werden über ihre Beweggründe die Öffentlichkeit informieren. Und es sind vielleicht ganz andere als dieser oder jener Kommentar vermutet.

Wer diese ganzen Geschichten und Geschichtchen um die Entwicklung des Goldpreises als Dauerthema einer Unterhaltungssendung versteht, tut gut daran und möge es genießen. Wer in diesem Markt Geld verdienen will (und es ist ein guter Markt, um Geld zu verdienen), der sollte versuchen, das Thema ( wie andere Investments auch) sachlicher zu betrachten und nützliche Informationen von Emotionen unterscheiden.

Man möge mir die eine oder andere verbale Backpfeife verzeihen. Es ist der reine Eigennutz, denn ich bekomme den gesamten Unsinn immer auf den Tisch, mit der Bitte um einen Kommentar.

Gruß
