You seem not to be the only one hearing about his supposed banking failure. Check out yesterday's Globe and Mail.
One question. Since this stock is going nowhere how many of us will dump to buy gold stocks tomorrow?

Just funnin' with you, .Trev. You didn't write it,
you just posted it, so my responses were directed at the authors, not you. I just can't take LeMet and the other conspiracy-mongers seriously. But I do suppose short-covering occurred. For example, Frank Veneroso I take seriously.

I see people trying to make money in the markets, using any legal means available to give them an edge, including the time-honored tradition of using government's interventionist bent (not that such ought to be possible, but it is). Others call that a conspiracy. I see the big players as alert to the big picture and all its nuances, typically neutral ahout everything except making money.

I don't get too excited about what could be a very short-lived spike in gold, to be followed by money-making opportunities on the downside for those who know WHY this spike occurred. Just a guess, but lots of history behind it.

.Trev - You have to admit though .Trev that the tone of the posting was quite conspiratorial in nature. The author refers to derivatives as "tricks" and calls the Bank of America an octopus whose tentacles I suppose reach into every nook and cranny of the international economy. I'm with teevee on this one, it walks and talks like a duck.
