Hier ein Auszug aus einem neuen Artikel, worin der Autor angesichts der aktuellen Situation nochmals en detail darlegt, wie das korrupte Zusammenspiel zwischen den Bullion Banks, Leasinggeschäften, Goldpreisdrückung seiner Ansicht nach funktioniert bzw. funktionieren könnte.
Solche Erläuterungen klingen zumeist plausibel, wenn man immer nur ausschliesslich an die Gold- und Silbermärkte denkt und so tut, als sei dies der alleinige Nabel der ökonomischen Welt.
Nachdem ich selbst solche Erklärungsmuster (lange vor Herrn Eichelburg!) früher mit intellektueller Begeisterung aufgesogen habe, gebe ich heute unumwunden zu, dass ich mir nicht mehr so sicher bin, in welchem Ausmass "die grosse Goldverschwörung" sich auch beweisen lässt.
Im Grunde könnte die Sache, sofern nicht wirklich ein gewaltiger Knall kommen sollte, praktisch ewig so weitergehen, d.h. bisher haben die grossen Adressen mit ihren monumentalen Shortpositionen noch jedesmal innerhalb kürzester Zeit den grossen Reibach gemacht. Und zwar bei allen Rohstoffen inkl. der monetären Metalle - da sind in den letzten Wochen Milliarden und Abermilliarden verdient worden von eben jenen, deren Hypothekenschrott sie auf der anderen Seite der Bilanz in Bedrängnis gebracht hat.
Gold und Silber können, das hat sich in den letzten zwei Jahren zumal immer wieder gezeigt, brutalst bei Bedarf in kürzester Zeit zurückgeholt werden, die dazugehörigen Aktien ebenso.
Einen ebenso deutlichen, rasanten Anstieg kann es umgekehrt nur bei öffentlicher Anerkennung einer eruptiven Grosskrise geben. Dazu müssten inzwischen schon mindestens, nach einem Jahr Dauerkrise auf den Finanzmärkten, einige US-Banken über den Jordan gehen. Darunter wird nicht viel geschehen können.
Ich glaube, dass selbst eine Verstaatlichung von Fannie und Freddie nicht mehr als zusätzliches Schocksignal ausreichen würde - auch ein solches Szenario scheint schon verdaut zu sein.
Hier also die Ansichten von Herrn James Conrad:
There is a huge demand for both gold and silver right now in India and North America. North American shops are completely bare of silver. Indian shops are empty of both silver and gold. Even the Indian banks don't have any gold or silver. The big western bullion banks, based in New York and London, control both the gold and silver trade (...)
We have a disconnect between reality markets and fantasy markets. The COMEX and London Metals Exchange are fantasy markets controlled by the big bullion banks. They must be engaged in market manipulation, because nothing can explain a big price collapse, in the midst of widespread shortages and robust demand. A group of big financial institutions, deeply enmeshed in the global trading system, and heavily involved in the gold and silver market, must be deliberately inducing temporary panic, for their own purposes. These malevolent characters will eventually be able to buy back their short positions at low prices, and, possibly, also, even collect a significant long position. The process is a continuing one, and hasn’t stopped yet. On Friday, for example, the subsidy for leasing gold and silver was raised to very high levels.
It is obvious what they are doing. More important, however, is why? What does it mean? Well, the PPT bank executives are generally “people in the know” about financial events, before they actually happen, sue to close relations with regulators like the Federal Reserve, and FDIC. They folks are so desperate to cover short positions, that they are willing to spend a billion or so dollars, subsidize precious metal leases, to collapse the market, and destroy investor confidence. But, why? We know that the Federal Reserve, like other central banks, sees gold as a rival to the dollar. But, that’s not enough, because they’ve never attacked precious metals with such ferocity as now, and, if the Fed were directly involved, they could probably supply real metal.
If something terrible is about to happen in the financial world, the losses that big banks would take on their precious metal short positions would put most of them into bankruptcy. Remember the words of Warren Buffett. Derivatives are the financial world’s weapons of mass destruction. Precious metals futures short positions are highly leveraged transactions that could cost hundreds of billions if the price of gold were to suddenly explode.
We can guess that the main players here are big powerful Wall Street and/or High Street investment banks who work closely with the Federal Reserve, the ECB, and the Bank of England. These people are privy to the information needed to carry out a massive manipulation as described above. No one else is. Since most of the collapse happens on the COMEX, we can assume that most of the manipulation is being done by New York based investment banks.
Wall Street’s investment banks control most of the world's gold and silver markets. They are also entrenched in the overall mesh of all financial markets. Making matters worse, because of the 1987 President’s Executive Order on Working Markets, they are authorized to work together, and in conjunction with the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve, to manipulate markets without fear of criminal prosecution. They know exactly where the stop-loss orders are, and how much flooding of paper claims for gold and silver would be needed to trigger them. They are, therefore, perfectly positioned to carry out the nefarious scheme I have outlined. The ultimate aim, of course, would be to destroy investor confidence, by collapsing the price for a few weeks. This would allow them to unload their own exposure at a very low cost, while the majority of market participants are temporarily shell-shocked, and in retreat...
But, it’s not cheap to manipulate markets. It will probably cost over a billion dollars to subsidize the negative lease rates. The only logical reason to spend such a huge amount of money, is if you are going to get an even bigger benefit from doing so. They must be very worried about losing far more. Once again, that implies that some VERY bad economic news is about to be released. Skeptical? How much worse can the economy get? It can get much worse! So, what’s in store? A series of huge bank failures, maybe?
