TPTB just don't want us to have PM's

Look at KITCO. Everything is taking a hit today.

They want us to run from all precious metals.

Does anyone want some FRN's for theirs?

I can't quite figure this out and I keep wondering what is going on.

Jim Willie has a theory that the PTB are really several PTBs with different zones of influence. He goes on to say that they are attacking each other right now, and that extremely volatility is the weapon. I can't really explain it but will say Willie has had many outlandish claims proven correct and that his newsletter is a good value at $110 for six months.

Decisions are made by people. Most of those in a company in a position to invest the company's money in metal already think poorly of it, those who supervise them look short term and metal does poorly there thanks to the manipulation, and the bosses read "reputible" magazines where PM is slandered.

Untill things get nasty, that is.

Lemon, Jim Willie is right about competing PTBs. We'd be toast if they were to work together.

Slick, not to worry, its the calm before the storm. "They" might NOT want us to "have" PM's..or "they" might be running down PM's as a store of wealth, currency insurance...whatever, the game is, but however TPTB want to paint the picture, paint the tape, only holds as much currency, as we give it. i've seen this before in many markets, but especially NOW, given the dislocation and disarray of global markets for equities and currencies, its gotten particularly intense. There are many ways to rebel, or not go along with "the program", some are foolish, such as those that purpose violent revolt, or sedition. a true patriot, imo, rarely considers this course of action. some are futile, as the folks we see in lower Manhattan. i applaud their sand and committment, but imo, they're going on the rocks, because they cant clearly define WHAT they want. They know they dont want ..."THIS", but they cant tell you what "THIS" is, and then there are others, US, who are in quiet revolt, meaning the concept of "Full Faith and Trust" has eroded away, therefore we stack. i believe one should be focused and disciplined on the long term aspects of what we are doing, which is "insuring" our wealth, and putting on the squelch button, to cut out all the static. a true real good trader, NEVER lets others sway, what he KNOWS to be his course of action. never. confidently yours, neil
