It's nice to see that re-inflated hamsters retain their vigour (gggg). There is no question that the ABZ hedge program was/is a brilliant construct. Indeed it appears that you can have your cake and eat it too. In the murky derivatives world , the truth usually lies somewhere in the middle. Goldman turning bullish on gold , then downgrading ABZ? Say it ain't so ! That all said , I have great respect for R. Olliphant and his ability to effectively hedge the hedge over time. At some point the major hedgers , the counterparties and the bullion banks will realize that they are all in the same tent... a united we stand , divided we fall kind of thing. This is much much bigger I suspect than a negative hedgebook. This ain't no party , this ain't no disco , this ain't no foolin' around (read this ain't no Ashanti). Best Luck to All.
