Thai Guru's Gold und Silber ... (Informationen und Vermutungen)

Da wurde uns doch immer weiss gemacht, dass sobald der Irak Krieg beginnen werde, die Ölpreise wieder stark nach geben, und billiger werden. Der Chart sieht für mich aber eher so aus, als dass wir beim Öel nächstens in Dollars mehr bezahlen müssen als vor dem Irak Krieg?

Kein Wunder, dass sich die Amis über steigende Benzinpreise ärgern.

Sind eigentlich die Benzinpreise im Preisindex der Amerikaner mit drin?

Eine Zusammenfassung von Links zu Informationen zur Goldpreis Manipulation. Zusammengestellt von der GATA im Januar 2002.

Wenn jemand der heute noch leichtsinnig wie ich glaube, behauptet eine Goldpreis Manipulation existiere nicht, und alles sei nur eine Verschwörungs Theorie. Wer NACH dem Studium aller dieser bekannten Fakten und Belege, immer noch davon überzeugt sein sollte, dass es sich nur um Hirngespinste einiger idiotischer Gold Bugs handle, dann kann wohl gar nichts mehr überzeugen.

Nur alles braucht seine Zeit, auch das Lesen dieser Informationen die alle in englischer Sprache abgefasst sind. Die Texte nur zu überfliegen reicht in der Regel nicht aus um sich ein abschliessendes Bild machen zu können.

Es gibt aber noch bedeutend viel mehr Arbeiten von Fachleuten, und Insidern im In-, und Ausland zu lesen. The Gold Wars von Ferdinand Lips ist bei weitem nicht die einzige Quelle an Information.

Hoffe die über 2 Jahre alten Links funktionieren alle noch.

Le Metropole Members,

THE GOLD ANTI-TRUST ACTION COMMITTEE INC.

-- A SUMMARY --

In 1998, as he began http://www.LeMetropoleCafe.com, his
Internet site of financial commentary, Bill Murphy noticed
that the gold market wasn`t trading as normal markets do.
Eventually he sensed collusion among market participants
to suppress the gold price and wrote about it repeatedly.

Following Murphy`s commentary with great interest, a
newspaper editor in Connecticut, Chris Powell, noted that
collusion to control prices is against U.S. anti-trust law and
suggested that gold partisans and gold market participants
mobilize against it, and so GATA was formed and
incorporated in early 1999. Murphy is chairman, and
Powell is secretary/treasurer. GATA is recognized by the
U.S. Internal Revenue Service as a tax-exempt charitable,
educational, and civil rights organization. It has received
contributions from mining industry sources as well as
hundreds of individuals with an investment or philosophical
interest in gold.

GATA has advocated litigation against collusion to
suppress the gold price, and, indeed, has helped
bring such litigation in U.S. District Court in Boston,
with its consultant Reginald H. Howe. But GATA has
discovered that the gold-price suppression scheme
involves not only big bullion trading banks but also
governments and particularly the U.S. government.

Indeed, GATA has discovered that the gold-price
suppression scheme was actually put down on paper,
in public, by Harvard Professor Lawrence Summers,
just before he went into the Clinton Treasury Department,
eventually becoming treasury secretary. (He`s now
president of Harvard.)

Summers co-wrote an essay for an academic journal
examining the inverse relationship between the gold
price and interest rates, and more or less concluded
that government could keep interest rates low by
suppressing the gold price. While there is no electronic
copy of Summers` essay, you can read about it here:

The mechanisms by which the gold price is being
suppressed are, first, "leasing" of gold by central
banks, wherein government gold reserves are sold
into the market through intermediaries; and, second,
the sale of gold futures, options, and other derivatives
by bullion banks that, GATA believes, have assurance
from governments that, if they ever have to produce
actual gold to cover their positions, it will be made
available to them cheaply from official sources.

Gold leasing is a matter of public record among the
European central banks and some others. The United
States, which reports the biggest gold reserves in the
world, has always denied participating in gold leasing.
But GATA have information that comes close to proving
such involvement, undertaken through the secretive
and unaccountable Exchange Stabilization Fund of
the Treasury Department. Surreptitiously issuing
claims against U.S. gold reserves, the ESF and the
Federal Reserve Board have put those reserves at
risk and their true ownership is now in question.

One big piece of evidence of the surreptitious use
of U.S. gold reserves to suppress the gold price is a
statement by the Federal Reserve`s general counsel,
Virgil Mattingly, recorded in the minutes of the Federal
Open Market Committee meeting of January 31, 1995,
which you can read about here:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/gata/message/733

Evidence of an auditing sort can be found in some essays
by GATA James Turk, editor of the Freemarket Gold and
Money Report, which you can read here:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/gata/message/837

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/gata/message/955

For a broad perspective on the legal implications of all
this, you can read the full complaint in the GATA-
supported lawsuit, Howe vs. Bank for International
Settlements, et al., here:

http://www.goldensextant.com/BIS-PFcase.html#anchor35871
http://www.goldensextant.com/BIS-PFcase.html

The lawsuit notes that the market in gold derivatives is tightly
concentrated and overwhelmingly dominated by the J.P.
Morgan/Chase investment bank. Of course the House of
Morgan has a long and intimate relationship with the U.S.
government. This concentration in the market for gold
derivatives is in itself, GATA thinks, close to proof that the
gold market is manipulated and not trading freely. This view
is increasingly held by gold market observers.

can be read here:

What are the purposes of the gold price suppression
scheme?

We believe there are several:

1) To keep interest rates down by deceiving the bond markets about the rate of inflation, inflation historically
being gauged in large part by the price of gold. You may
remember the famous comments about the bond market
that were attributed to President Clinton not long after he
took office. He was frustrated with having to take the advice
of his economic advisers that the approval of the bond
market was crucial to his administration`s political success.
Clinton said he resented having to make his administration
one of "Eisenhower Republicans." GATA thinks that the
gold price suppression scheme -- the massive deception of
the bond market -- was Clinton`s revenge.

2) To strengthen the U.S. dollar in relation to other curencies;
to suppress commodity prices generally, since commodity
prices take their cues from the gold price; and, by extension,
to raise living standards in the United States by expropriating
the developing world, which makes its living largely from
producing commodities.

3) To enrich through inside information about U.S. government
policy the Wall Street investment houses that have helped
implement the gold price suppression scheme and that long
have staffed the Treasury Department and Federal Reserve.

But the results of the gold price suppression scheme have
been far greater than all this. The results include the
devastation of the economies of the developing world, and
particularly sub-Sarahan Africa, and the vast misallocation
of capital throughout the world in the last decade. That is,
with the bond market deceived about inflation, the dollar,
and the strength of the U.S. economy, most economic
decisions around the world for the last decade have been
based on horribly mistaken premises. The U.S. stock
market bubble, now bursting, is evidence of this.

There`s a lot more detail to be had here, but this is a start.

All GATA`s dispatches to its supporters, wherein GATA`s
evidence and commentary are laid out, are available here:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/gata/messages

GATA believes that the most important work to be done now is
to compel the U.S. government to admit and explain its
intervention in the gold market -- its secret underwriting of the
gold leasing done by central banks around the world and its
putting U.S. gold reserves at risk. This is, after all, PUBLIC
policy undertaken with PUBLIC resources, and there can be
no justification for surreptitious government intervention in a
supposedly capitalist economy in a democracy. Everyone
should have equal access to information about such policy.

GATA believes that the gold price suppression policy will end when it is exposed, because it can`t stand the light of day and because no investors will take the other side of any trade
they come to realize is fixed.
