"However, The Gold Cartel’s best laid plans on this quiet trading today ran into difficulty as little by little gold crept back up. From a technical market viewpoint, there is nothing better than two small down days after a run like we have had to the upside. It relieves the overbought condition without doing much damage to the price. In addition, this sort of price action following the PM Fix gives more support to Adrian’s widely read analysis that The Gold Cartel is gradually getting stuffed and are looking at big trouble in the weeks and months ahead.

“Gold fever is gripping Yukon for the first time in more than a century following a discovery by a penniless and persistent prospector who was determined to find the source of the original Klondike deposits….
…While his work has yet to result in an operating mine, it has already sparked a record-setting staking rush and led to the multimillion-dollar takeover of a junior gold explorer by a senior producer.”
