3:49p ET Sunday, March 28, 2010
Dear Friend of GATA and Gold (and Silver):
Zero Hedge has given wonderful treatment to GATA board member Adrian Douglas' analysis of the admission to the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission by gold market expert Jeffrey Christian that the so-called physical gold market in London is instead mostly unbacked paper. Zero Hedge's treatment includes video of Douglas' statement to the CFTC and is headlined "Former Goldman Commodities Research Analyst Confirms LMBA OTC Gold Market Is 'Paper Gold' Ponzi" and you can find it here:
