Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
GATA long has been reading the daily market letter from our old friend Michael J. Ballanger in Canada, a letter that concentrates on the mining industry but often has a wider focus and, unlike most financial letters, acknowledges market manipulation. Your secretary/treasurer thinks it's a great letter and as you'll see below, Ballanger now is taking new subscribers again and is offering a substantial subscription fee discount to GATA supporters.

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
GATA board member Ed Steer, publisher of Ed Steer's Gold and Silver Digest letter, was interviewed this week by Jesse Day of the Commodity Culture channel on YouTube, discussing silver's likely breakout from the clutches of the banks that have been suppressing prices with derivatives even as physical supply gets extremely short.
