No, I would not ban short selling or margin. Just when "an expert" comes on CNBC(or any other media) with an opinion against gold or the gold miners I think they should fully disclose their position just as they would be required with any other investment. Remember two years ago when Goldman Sachs was on every week saying "don't buy gold"? The same rules as are applied to anything else is what would denote a free market, that is what I request. Not long before, the official position of the CFTC & SEC was "there is no manipulation" of gold. Now even a Federal Reserve Governer has said "something funny" is going on in the gold market. It should be noted, there is now one waiting trial on charges including manipulation of gold & silver markets -lower - Martin Armstrong.
