JW-CB ie: Exchange Margin Requirements... ...I remember the day; when people doubted the existance of the ESF....literally; thought it & the entire manipulation from the Long USD-Short Gold Carry Trade, was a figment of the imagination of paranoic goldbuggers. But, now most recognize and acknowledge that Exchange "STABILIZATION" is nothing more than Exchange INTERVENTION, if not blatant MANIPULATION, merely by another name....as indeed the ESF, should be renamed the EMF....or simply called the E-MFr's for short (vbg). So I must ask a question that I am sure will be met with more slings & arrow allegations of unbridled hubrisism, or Imperial Arrogance (i like that one by the way Gee)...so here it is... another question that begs to be asked to the Jim Willie-Corned Beef's & Deer caught in Sinclair-Headlight-MegaCycle Gold Bulls of the world (vbg): Why, oh why...given the PAST obvious manipulation & intervention with GOLD, that we all now acknowledge....would you all NOW fail to ANTICIPATE that same intervention and manipulation right here, right now...as GOLD breaks to new highs & as Bush launches his new tax plan, prepares for War with Iraq, has a quickly approaching re-election campaign and we find the USD, the US Economy & Deficit and all things ESF/FED & Inside Wall St...at such a precipice !?!?!?!?! Hello ? ANTICIPATE people !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do not wait to REACT....A-N-T-I-C-I-P-A-T-E ! ...you should be anticipating that GOLD is going to be whacked like a SOB here - C'MON !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Part of one's trading "gameplan" - must....absolutely MUST incorporate the ANTICIPATION of what the opponent is going to do....and at what point, ie: WHEN they are most likely to do it. ...hell, maybe some of you here haven't even identified WHO the opponent is yet... maybe we ought to start there ? Not anticipating manipulation/intervention on the USD, or against Gold... is like being an NFL Coach preparing for the SUPER BOWL - and never watching your opponents Film, or Scouting them ? This is NOT a one dimensional game people.... it's not just about what YOU do, or what GOLD does... it's about what the OTHER people do, have done in the past... and ANTICIPATING what they are going to do in the future...and WHEN they are most likely to do it ! - is this really that complex of a concept - ie: anticipating vs. reacting ? And taking this theme to the arguement that many are making that Gold is going to go to astronomical new highs...due to a derivatives, or COMEX collapse...go back and look at the past and what happened to the HUNT Bros when they indeed did have the same corner in Silver, that may, or may not exist in Gold Derivatives...or that may, or may not develop on the COMEX. No one will EVER be forced to cover with physical... will NOT and will NEVER be allowed to happen if it is a significant negative catalyst to the markets at the wrong place & time... which presently, it obviously would be. Who ever needs to be bailed out, will be... cash will be used to settle - not physical delivery and whatever degree of manipulation that need be... will be. Neither the US, or the Global Financial Markets will be allowed to be brought to a collapse by POG running to levels that fracture the markets - GOLD will NOT be allowed to run to levels that will be shock to the markets...not here at this tenuous point of fragile Geopolitics & Global Economies....it will NEVER be allowed to happen - period. * Take what the market gives you...especially when & if, it is delivered on a Silver Platter by a Gift Horse * We just got one of the easiet 3.5 baggers in cyclical history and another slow moving 40 to 60 HUI trading range target to hit for the 2nd time. GOLD is now approaching a level to where Intervention & Manipulation have to be anticipated; because GOLD will NOT be allowed to fracture the Global Markets... simply will NOT happen.
