Manipulated Markets Can’t See the Future By: David Nichols
Right now we are all in the unfortunate position of being hostage to the dubious forecasting abilities of the Fed and other Central Bankers, as if they are not proactive in putting in place another round of easing, just about every financial market will plunge.

SO THE PRICE of gold keeps falling, and it keeps falling despite the imminent failure of Greece's Euro membership, the looming collapse of Europe's banking system, and the fast-looming debt-ceiling repeat and fiscal cliff in the US.
Gold Market Alert By: JULIAN PHILLIPS & PETER SPINA

But I am not convinced that gold and silver will take off right away.

Gold and silver still the best protection against the derivatives blow up that started with JP Morg By: Peter Cooper
The immediate reaction to the $2 billion and counting loss at JP Morgan has been a flight from risk trades and a sell-off of all financial assets, gold and silver included.
