The Foreign Exchange (FOREX) manipulation scandal is growing in scope. In 2013 many large banks (Barclays, Deutsche Bank, UBS, Royal Bank of Scotland and HSBC) set aside 16.4 billion euros to cover « legal expenses », e.g. the probable amount of fines they will have to pay after their t...

Here's a look at the 20 largest holders of gold on the planet according to the World Gold Council report in January 2014.

We will have a continuation of the bear market in the Dow Jones and a continuation of the bull market in gold. If the secular cycle repeats, we can conclude that the Dow Jones will be priced at an ounce of gold or even less.

New DMA Deviation timeframes added in short to long term.

Funny how the Fed and Big Business are not true to their primary function (guarantee the value of the money, invest and increase profits) and would rather manipulate the tools at their disposal, for which they are responsible, that must be used to establish objective measures (dollars, stocks)in...

Oil has earned the nickname of black gold, especially since the crisis of the ‘70s and the explosion of its price. What is the relation between gold and oil? Is there one?

We’ve said it before... but here we go again : THERE IS NO RECOVERY OF THE AMERICAN ECONOMY! There. This « recovery » has been touted these last few months with the mass media repeating it ad nauseam, and « no one should doubt it ». And quarterly growth numbers seemed to...

Then investors will lose confidence in certain ETFs like GLD. And the game will end finally with the loss of confidence in the current fiat money syste...

Paper gold sellers (probably banks like HSBC or JP Morgan) decided (jointly?) to hit the market hard on April 12 and 15, and on June 20 and 26, with so much selling that the effect on the price had to lead to a brutal collapse.
