It appears nobody is watching the store here. Since regulators in this arena and many other markets are nowhere to be found, paper gold markets have been accused of being 10, 20, 100 times as large as the actual physical, how could actual prices be affected? Since stocks in any company have been naked shorted before and crushed (manipulated) by various powers that be, how could tactics like this be used for those powers to accumulate an asset such as gold with their own private money, while using public money to sell down. What about what occurred in England? You had the Central Bank of England selling gold at close to the bottom of the Gold price. Who was the buyer? This would be extremely important info, that has never come out. Talk about a contrary trade back in the day. It's my hunch that the very same sell down with public money to be scooped up with private money is an actual tactic used to accumulate large positions. So, with a theory such as this, it could very well be possible that this paper pile( how large is any ones guess) could be used to SELL down prices so private money can scoop up cheap. So, prices could be crushed under such weight, driving almost everybody out. Possible? Anything is possible. Conviction? You may need all you can muster. Just sayin.
If it can be cornered, it will.

of course it is possible and even likely but other factors are at work, like china and india and the supply of the real stuff the real stuff cant be made, and theire are real buyers for it who might not be part of the shennanigans you describe are you out here?

getting hot in the kitchen!? they will have control until they dont. silver was well maintained , even though the hunts were buying , controlling, and hoarding huge quantities of silver. when the word came to the publics eye in 78-79 the public jumped in and the exchange members, the commercial shorts. and their pilot fish were overrun. until they are overrun , they will exhibit control over the market. its the nature of the beast. what is encouraging to me is the fact that the commercials , as a trend, are continually lowering their short positions. this is all a process. after this correction -3rd phase of the bull on deck. it will last several years. it will be a new ball game. stodgy real estate gained 30-40% a year. as an example nasdaq stocks in 99-2k went beyond imagination. it all lies ahead dharma
