I believe the strategy is that Goldman will DRIVE the PRICE of GOLD DOWN with strong rumors.
If they are successful in accomplishing that strategy, then they will BUY UP all the available gold and when the SHTF, and gold rises dramatically, they'll be in "high cotton."
Don’t believe the scum sucking bastards at Goldman. They are their cronies have played this trick before, trying to push gold down with rumours. These SOBs should have all done a perp walk after the housing derivative crash.
