The political argument has always been at the back of my mind. However, also PM stocks never mentioned by Midas are being manipulated heavily, so for the time being I think the manipulation is broader in scope. It concerns everything in the PM sector, that can be manipulated, and it has the dual objective of 1) neutralizing gold/silver and the stocks as a barometer of the economy and 2) allowing the powers that be to buy up everything at rock bottom prices, when the economy is lost.
I think the cabal has succeeded in point 1 and we are very close to point 2 becoming their priority as economic collapse cannot any longer be denied.
The major institutions behind this robbery have been more or less revealed by Midas and Jim Sinclair.
What I ask myself is what role do the Canadian brokers play in this Manipulation game, since they play a key role in private placements and sharetrading of PM miners and must be owning a lot of shares.
Who coordinates their activities or do I have to believe that they blindly know how to put downward pressure on the sector simultaneously?
