When foreign regulatory bodies charge banks with manipulation, the conspiracy theory is hardly a theory. It's done through gofo in the gold market, and through forward rate swaps in currency markets, which is why gofo is important. It's the tail that wags the dog. Sure, it sounds unbelievable that 0.1 rate differential can cause $100 move in price, but it just did 2 weeks ago, up, and after early December, down. Once a single element is taken from the bottom of the inverted pyramid it collapses. The reason US can blow bubbles is because it can print reserve currency. Take away that privilege, and the bubble collapses.
