Bad gold loans, I guess? Should not gold soar when they do this? I think it's not gold that's killing JPM. Rather dollar/euro swaps. However, JPM practically is the only bullion bank, with the majority of gold derivatives

Hi Paul, I don't think JPM can go down without taking most of the markets with it.
It's just too big. The derivatives they hold are like a ticking financial H-bomb.
JPM must be saved at all costs ... which will certainly include intervention in the markets.
I don't think they will let gold get away ... but it would be nice it they lengthen its leash by 10%. : )

Bob, great contributions lately. Thanks.

<<The public will go crazy if they learn that JPM and C are permitted to surf while they experience such pain. Sounds kinda like Japan to me.>>

Japanese didn't go crazy, did they? And the public will behave like nothing happen at all even if stock markets go to zero level as long as they have the jobs and money which can buy goods. For the politicians majority counts, and majority already lost their shirt.
