I’ll never understand the gold and silver markets. By now I would have thought they would be rocketing to new highs, but they just look stuck.

I get the nagging feeling those markets are being manipulated by either the fed or somebody's (America's, China's, Russia's?) government. I mean, if the Hunt brothers could do it privately, imagine what the fed, along with a complicit US government, could do? And without fear of prosecution.

I wouldn’t put it past them, that’s for sure. Particularly silver, it is incredibly undervalued, IMO.

yes, the markets had been manipulated for a few years... 2009 - 2011. almost every day you’d see gold drop in value during US market hours... and rise during Asian times. almost as if someone were selling everything they had in a big vault somewhere.... and have it bought up by the chinese
