  • Did the ECB Save Comex from Gold Default? (Part 2) [View article]
    I have this funny sensation that Gold is being bought with the USD via the banks and then passed to treasury as a gaurantee on the TARP funds. I do not really believe the US would leave itself in a vulnerable position. All Banks are buying gold but via third parties and in a way that is opaque to the general populace. Just this funny sensation that conspirationists might have it backwards and the US is BUYING gold with USD, not selling.
