Richard, "becoming boring" will feel good after reading new Fed minutes. They are absolutely aMazzing. Really, as they ask the question "Who is in charge Mr. Chairman." Imagine Alan Fed Greenspan receiving double-talk from those folks who make big and important decisions. Yes, to the point that Alan will stop talking and say "Never mind." Imagine a Power that Be person in cahoots with Movers & Shakers in the private sector, Wheeling & Dealing in the name of the United States of America to actually create and make foreign policy in "their" image for their agendas. You will not believe reading these minutes, especially when Alan just accepts that he has been set-up to admit that he (1) has not a clue (2) clueless to ask the type of questions to get un-clueless. Please read these minutes and see the "weak side" of Alan and then see if you felt better(safer) before doing Got nothing to do? The James Joyce Table Gold, Commodities, Midas du Metropole Topic du Jour Café member Dave has served up more minutes from the Federal Reserve Bank at The Kiki Table. They are a fascinating read and, while old, they give us a good look into Fed thinking. Most of the players mentioned are still in the public eye. They also reveal that a great deal of attention is paid to the gold market. The Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee has gained ground ... because of a great deal of detective work. We paid an investigator who came up with the gold derivative data. Reg Howe found out about the gold swaps by burning the midnight oil in the Harvard Library. Mike Bolser found out about the re-classification of the gold at West Point. James Turk discovered that discrepancies in gold classifications on the Fed books vis-a-vis the ESF that reveal that the ESF traded gold when they denied doing so. By serving up the minutes, it may trigger other research activity or set something in motion that allows a Café member to put 2 and 2 together regarding some other tidbit that will be helpful. ... bleeding gold out of COMEX stocks also attracts sharks. .. he has not so far offered any comment on James Turk's epochal piece FGMR No.283, dealing with ESF/Bundesbank gold lending relationship - which he has seen. Anyone following gold who has not read this crucial document should do so urgently: gata.org ... the bond vigilantes are out in full force. ... is why the cabal continues to restrain gold.
