Ed Steer: Gold manipulation -- the 'London bias' -- 1970-2014
11:45a ET Monday, March 9, 2015
Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
GATA board member Ed Steer, editor of Casey Research's Gold and Silver Daily letter, today publishes a detailed report on the suppression of gold prices in the London market for most years from 1970 through last year even as world gold prices were rising generally.
After presenting a chart of the price suppression, Steer writes:
"The overt market price suppression of the 1960s during the days of the London Gold Pool turned into the covert price-suppression scheme you see here. For those looking for the proverbial smoking gun of the gold price management scheme, it's staring them in the face in this one chart.
"And without doubt, it was -- and still is -- being carried out by the covert and collusive actions of organizations such as the Bank for International Settlements, the Federal Reserve, the Exchange Stabilization Fund, and the U.S. Treasury Department. I'm sure it would be safe to include, at times, the central banks of England, France, Germany, and perhaps Switzerland. In recent years it may also have come to include the People's Bank of China."
Steer's report is headlined "Gold Manipulation: The 'London Bias,' 1970-2014" and it's posted at Casey Research here:

Direct Ownership and Storage of Precious Metals

Goldbroker.com is a precious metals investment company that enables investors to own and store gold directly in their own name (no mutualized ownership) in Zurich and Singapore.
Goldbroker's clients are not exposed to any counterparty risks. They own gold and silver in their own names (the ownership certificate cites the name of the investor and serial number of his bars) and they have storage accounts opened in their own name as well. So Goldbroker.com's storage partner knows the exact identity of each investor. Goldbroker.com doesn't store in the name of its clients; rather, Goldbroker's clients store personally. All investors have direct access to their gold and silver bars.
Goldbroker.com was launched in 2011 so that investors would avoid any counterparty risk when investing in physical gold and silver.
Goldbroker.com is listed among GATA's recommended monetary metals dealers. (http://www.gata.org/node/173)
