I am a believer that the market is bigger than any one entity or even a cartel. If gold and silver were going to rally, the Commercials would be all over it and nobody could do anything about it.

Smart money is smart for a reason.

As much as I hate Bob Pis-ant-i, his famous words, "gold ain't going anywhere," are true for now.

I don't deny you the legitimacy of gold as the ultimate form of money, but ALL money is prone to supply and demand and paper currencies aren't going nowhere during a deflationary period - by definition it means there is a shortage of paper due to the destruction of credit.

I suspect gold will have its day AFTER the bear market ravages assets - and a fine day it will be.

""S&P just happens to remove ABX & PDG from the S&P 500 and all the index funds have to sell - what a coincidence!""

That's bullish for golds, IMO. Being added to the S&P 500 is the kiss of death.
