As of posting, over 70% of 'Soft commodities' in the red today. - It's like observing a conductor instructing his orchestra with a wave of his baton. -

Agree Mr Tibbs
Cowichan's researched and informed contribution to the BB is substantial and speaking for myself, much appreciated.

Hi Cowichan
I would say they are taking the pee. - A familiar stance with shareholders.

Was there ever anything more blatant than today's take-down. - They are not even being subtle about it and the whole process is being watched from the sidelines by the Regulator - They've been handed a free-pass to rob and plunder at will. - It's hard to believe what is happening.

Blatantly holding the market up in broad-daylight and without any fear of reprisals. - As I've said before, the bad-guys have won and there's nothing that any of us can do about it. - When the political system and the Law are embedded into the system that allows such daylight-robbery we can only stand and watch in amazement.

So, a long waiting period for physical-gold for delivery. - You can't get it. - A premium has to be paid if you want to join the waiting list. - All of this and the price goes down. - Beautiful symmetry. - I wonder if this equation is taught at Economics school?

The boys controlling the levers are just letting us know who is in charge. - They are demonstrating how much power they have. - Will Basel change this power? - That remains to be seen. - Watch this space.

Commodities: - Softs taking another big hit today as well as base-metals. - If it isn;t deliberate manipulation, it's a helluva coincidence, coinciding with the inflation news as it does.

Commodities: - Base metals getting slaughtered today. - Agricultural yesterday. - It seems like the levers of manipulation are everywhere. - As inflation becomes a problem, we're gonna see a lot more of it I feel in attempting to control price-inflation. - Once again highlighting just how much control there is in supposedly free-markets. - Scary or what? - So, it's not just Gold. - It's everything!

Of course there will be a place in the order of things for unallocated . - The problem is that the unallocated market has gotten out of hand with reported leverage at times of as much as 100:1 - The market has morphed into a cess-pit of corruption, manipulation and greed. - Like everything else when it becomes too easy and when the Regulator is part of the problem. It's not just the PM market, the derivatives market in general has got the world by the b***s, exposing the global financial system to the catastrophic consequences of collapse..

Good morning Mr Bond
One thing that puzzles me in the current-climate, especially in respect of an accepted need for a monetary-system reset, the UK/Bank of England, with virtually no gold on the books, appears not to care about its gold-deficit.- Something doesn't seem to add-up here.- I suspect they, in cahoots with our close American cousins, definitely know something we don't know.

Hi CHRI55

Basel to change everything. - Really? - You would never guess. - It's just the same-old, same-old. - With less than 3 weeks to go, you would have thought there would be a scramble in the market to square positions. - No sign of it. - Unless they know something we don't. - So far, a bit of a damp-squib.

The biggest problem lies with the 'Regulator'. -The office responsible for applying the law. - Imagine if lax/ non-existent regulation applied to murder, burglary, theft, etc., where would our society be? - Yet, it's OK to allow a free-pass for financial regulation. A free-pass that allows a nations citizens to be turn-over/cheated. - Look what's happened in recent times with financial theft and malfeasance. - Nobody goes to jail, in fact after the statute of limitations expires, 3 yrs. in the US, perpetrators are prepared to admit to it all, pay a fine and get on with the next robbery. - Regulation needs addressing as an urgent priority, otherwise it will eventually break society. IMO

Al commodities (99%) taking a hit today. - Like an orchestra following the conductor, with the exception of oil and lumber they have all dropped at a stroke.

Mr Bond - If China follows suit or even threatens, what then I wonder?

Hi Dasut
Let's see what the coming days will bring. - One point that Cowichan raised which struck a chord with me was the Liberum 82p release occurring at the same time as Centamin RNS release. - I believe they even beat Peel, the Centamin Nomad, to the draw. A release that played no small-part in the collapse of the SP. - Coincidence or what? - A person could be forgiven for thinking this was a contrived/collusive event. After the shenanigans of recent history, it would not be an unnatural thought. IMO

Hi Dasut
I think the collapse in the s.p. after such good news had something to do with the doom and gloom. - A repeat of the short-ladder long-snake syndrome that has plagued Centamin for so many years now. - It's before us and behind us and we cannot shake it off. - Or so it seems.

If there is the even the remotest possibility that today's announcement is somehow a part of something devious, then it must rank alongside Pardey's previous attempts at sabotage. - Strange how Centamin's official tweet withdrawn. -

Hi Cowichan
Just read your post. - Amazing stuff. - They say a Leopard never changes it's spots. - Is the mystery/intrigue surrounding this company as strong and prevalent as it's ever been?

Today's fall has wiped-out the value of the upcoming dividend payment and some. - It's a very difficult share in which to sustain meaningful progress. - You really need a crystal-ball and nimble-feet. - It's going to require a leap of faith to stay with this. - IMO
