Desperation! Even after the public disclosure of the ongoing manipualtion the scum continues to dig in. A sure sign of two things:

1 The scum is not afraid that the CFTC will restrain them in any effective manner.

2 The world is now aware of the theivery which all insiders and big traders have known of for years. The investors and conservative houses are shifting from paper to physical.

Looking at 1 vs 2 above, I cannot see how the cartel scum can survive the recent demand for physical. Many big holders of paper reciepts (that are supposed to represent actual physical held by now discredited bullion banks) are taking action to get their physical (if it exists) sent to more transparent and honest storage. It is creating tension. When it finally breaks, it will suprise and reward all of us.

In the time since the CFTC hearing, demand for physical for delivery has risen at the same time that the crimex has increased its short position. A recipe for something drastic to happen. Our time is NEAR!
