"Everyone from Sinclair to Bill Murphy, gold bugs old and new alike -- have called Barrick for what it was...is...and will always be:...the favored vehicle of the Investment Bankers and the Gold Cabal."

AMEN BROTHER!

It is NOT good news in the long run.

Slider, you truly see the world through a different lens than the average bear (or, bull).

Talking about investment banks. Man- they are ka-chinging the register on this subprime meltdown. They made money in bringing them public, made money loaning them money, made money in underwriting their bonds, made money on the mergers & acquisitions, made money in selling the bundled mortgages, and now are making money in siphoning off their assets and reselling them- not to mention their trading departments simultaneously shorting the hell out of them- as the other hand lends them money- with the remaining liquid assets as collateral- at pennies on the dollar.
