Hear! Hear! Great post that puts it all into perspective Gold88888.
But look at the bright side. You have been right all along by recommending to your friends, family etc. to invest in gold...the metal. You can proudly remind all that your advice over the last 8 years would have been the best investment that has been made!
We are at the cusp. As Pic reminds us, something "big" this way comes. The shear weight of an illegal, giant, increasingly leveraged suppression of the global gold/silver markets for over ten years is near a climax...and capitulation lurks.
The desperation of "the beast" is magnified by the very fact that the tail is attempting to wag the dog, that by suppressing the JPMs somehow that will deflect/deter the now voracious global appetite for the pledged bullion that isn't there.
The Lilliputions have been scorned for far too long. Justice will be painful for the giant.
