brutus, What do you think?

I see gold firm up and then comes the hatchet job. A few days ago out of the blue comes the same to Royal Gold off the $80 level with gold steady. They are purposely keeping a lid on things. Who? I'm inclined to believe Martin Armstrong that some arrangement using gold is coming for the banksters benefit to relieve them of some terriblet debt instruments in hopes of improving their balance sheets. The lower gold is kept the better it will be for them on the exchange and we'll all find out about it, as usual, after the fact. Will they exchane the junk debt for our gold if its still there or confiscate ours, all being orchestrated by the out of control fed with all its greedy little foreign owners?

What I do suspect is there is a plan in effect on how gold will be constrained coming directly from the Plunge Protection members and each one of them know the plan. This would explain how the investment banks and some "in the know" hedge funds can so confidently throw waste paper on our investments in depression schemes and short the big ones for quick trades so they can take them down for buying opportunities, along with gathering short term naked selling profits in the mean time. So, when the day arrives these guys will be heavily long. IMO the system can't get restarted after the coming meltdown without gold being factored in higher due to the excessive increasing debt.

So in the mean time, they push us around like peasants and attempt to steal our money. Like my mother has so often said, "you don't have a loss until you take it." Just ask the Japanese bankers about this one, it's worth what you paid for it until you sell it.
