Phil > Maybe he is just deluding himself in that regard. No maybe about it. And he's in a lot of trouble. He bet the bank on a horse and the horse had a heart attack. > I believe fundamentals run technicals. What does that mean? Anything you want it to mean. Everything is in abundance. There is nothing that confers permanent wealth and security. > He is voicing an opinion shared by most gold bugs So now they may get a wake up call, but I doubt it. But we'll certainly hear more price suppression blah, more conspiracy stuff, more Greenspan. None of that helps. Truth is it's no use hanging on to something which can, and does, sink when one is trying to stay afloat. > I hope his sorrowful cry comes true He can cry just like the Iraqis cried in Abu Ghraib jail. His torture has only just begun. And no-one can hear him. > it just seems so easy to control the price of gold You didn't want to believe me but there was no increase in demand for gold. The "bull market" was all in futures/options with people waiting for a big price ($1000?)in order to cash-in. Pure gambling. No investment. What did anyone expect? When the plug was pulled, the party was over. But as usual it was pulled too soon.
