Yesterday saw the 2nd-largest one day surge in GLD "inventory" in the past five years. What does this signal, if anything at all? I think most everyone here knows how I feel about the GLD. It's a scam. It's a sham and it's a fraud. Oh sure...
In what should come as no surprise to anyone around here, the banks are once again creating as much paper metal as necessary to stall an advance in price. Already twice this year we've seen this happen in Comex Digital Silver and now the...
