All good questions, LB.

Since the perpetrators (JP Morgan, HSBC) that are about to be exposed in the gold market are the same as those leading the scam in the silver market, I expect that the silver market will follow.

It would certainly be the case, if JP Morgan and HSBS would incur heavy financial losses due to an explosion in the gold market. However, they may have protected themselves with call options in gold, as was brought to our attention by Adrian Douglas. The question is to what extent.

Another question I have. Are the Central Banks going to come up with additional physical gold to help the London bullion banks get out of this mess. The Germans not, that is clear. But maybe some of the others are stupid enough to do so.
