Zero Hedge: Gold GOFO rates turn negative for first time since Lehman
8:22a ET Tuesday, July 9, 2013
Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
Zero Hedge offers evidence of unusual strain in the gold market, the most strain in five years. Zero Hedge speculates that the strain may arise from:
"-- An ETF-induced repricing of paper and physical gold.
"-- Ongoing deliverable concerns and/or shortages involving one (JPM) or more Comex gold members.
"-- Liquidations in the paper gold market.
"-- A shortage of physical gold for a non-bullion bank market participant.
"-- A major fund unwinding a futures pair trade involving at least one gold leasing leg.
"-- An ongoing bullion bank failure with or without an associated allocated gold bank "run."
"-- All of the above."
