DD : Again I agree with you. With penalties being so high it would have to be some speculator who attempted it in a big way. Clearly, to effect a conspiracy against the gold price for any length of time is a massive undertaking where the chances of being detected are very high.

But my main reason for not believing in conspiracy theories concerning POG is that I contend that most big bankers/traders/whoever are simply not smart enough. In my view most top officials in major organisations, particularly state-run ones, get there by toeing the party line and ars creeping and not by being particularly brilliant!
