Powell to Gartman - 'Thanks for the Compliment'

GATAs Chris Powell writes: Commodity letter writer Dennis Gartman (http://www.thegartmanletter.com/) today acknowledges that the gold market well may be manipulated by governments but asserts that he doesnt care. He also completely misconstrues GATAs position and urges us to give up on the manipulation issue. Gartman writes: Concerning gold, weve angered the bugs once again by selling gold against purchases of crude oil and equities, fearing that gold looked vulnerable and noting that the gold/crude oil ratio looked even more so. We are amused and bemused by the vehemence and vitriol that the bugs bring forth when we turn even modestly bearish of gold,

Former Fed Gov Meyer - Obama Fired Bernanke on Charlie Rose Show!

“This is really remarkable. I almost fell off my chair when I heard the president’s remarks last night. He essentially fired Ben Bernanke on the spot and gave him a fairly tepid testimonial afterwards. So it’s time to really now focus on who the next chairman might be,” – Laurence Meyer, former Fed governor and CNBC guest in the video clip below. Meyer was reacting to the Charlie Rose interview from June 18 on CBS. Video Source: CNBC http://video.cnbc.com/gallery/?video=3000176791 GGR comment: Weakest interview yet for the Prez in our opinion. Not very confidence inspiring. Good job by Charlie though – to help the

If Bernanke really shakes tree, half the world may fall out

The following is brought to us by our friends at GATA: Ambrose Evans-Pritchard, The Telegraph, London writes:We no longer have a free market. The worlds financial asset prices have become aplaything of central banks and the sovereign wealth funds of a few emergingpowers. Julian Callow from Barclays says they are buying $1.8 trillion worth of AAA orsafe-haven bonds each year from an available pool of $2 trillion.

Biderman – Global Currency Debasement means Gold to Stay in Trim Tabs Model Portfolio

Trim Tabs founder and CEO Charles Biderman says the yo-yo like volatility of stock and bond prices is directly connected to central banks money printing and its heroin-like properties with investors. Specifically the fear of stimulus withdrawal. “Investors globally have become addicted to newly created free money ever since (2009). Therefore when Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke intimated on May 22, that the free money will “taper,” the markets have been acting similarly to how heroin addicts would respond if they knew that their drug would not be available soon,” Biderman begins. The float shrink guru then turns to recently rising interest rates.

Gurwitz – Gold Nearing a Multi-Cycle Bottom

Mike Norman sat down with David Gurwitz, managing director of the cycle gurus at Charles Nenner Research on May 24. The Nenner method relies on the study of cycles and the sine waves they create in charts. Gurwitz sees gold as “very near a cycle bottom,” the falling price of copper as evidence of a “not so good economy” and large cap equities currently topping. Gurwitz sees the Dow losing 60% of its value before the next cycle bottom.

On This Day in 1933

Christopher Westley , The Circle Bastiat, Reflections on Austrian economics and the science of liberty, writes: You were considered a hoarder and a slacker if you still resisted turning over your gold to the government. From the New York Times, June 13, 1933: (Click on the image for a sharper picture.) Roosevelt had only been in office for 101 days and while there was broad bipartisan support for inflationary policies in Congress, it’s safe to say that most of those who voted for FDR never expected him to confiscate private holdings of gold coins, bullion, and certificates. Roosevelt called the measure a temporary

Strangulation by Regulation

An Open Letter to the Canadian Mining and Mineral Exploration Industries from Joe Martin, Chairman – Cambridge House International Inc. Can the Junior Companies listed on Canadian exchanges survive this “Double Whammy?” Venture companies listed on the Toronto Venture Exchange are facing a “Double Whammy”, something that the industry has never faced before.
