It is only a coincidence that Goldman, Citi, JPM, etc have exited or reduced commodity trading at the behest of Dodd Frank in the last quarter... The TARP saved the financial world, all recipients are now Government lackeys. Is there not a book(s) about markets being rigged? I'm sure I've missed something.

dvdw. I don't get it. Are you asking if I am Charles Hugh Smith? No I am not.

Kind of have mixed feelings about his pieces. He comes up with some interesting ideas, but the amazing daily volume of words he turn out puts me off. Seems like he has enough stuff for a weekly article, but not a daily article - but he likes to put out something every day.

Speaking of Charles Hugh Smith, here is part 3, which I believe illustrates my point above nicely.
