This makes me wonder if there is some attempt by the regulatory bodies to deflect attention away from market manipulation of precious metal prices by the big boys. Its hard to believe that the regulators that could not expose Madhof, Citi, Goldman Sachs and all the other corupt large institutions would have the time or interest in exposing something as petty as this. I read the boards more for entertainment than substance as most posters have little proven credibility. (not Traps7) If you break the law, you pay the price, but its like the kettle calling the pot black. Maybe the weekend will sort things out. Happy Easter
