Can gold market rigging get more obvious? Yes, and probably will tomorrow

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
Today's "market" action in gold and silver evokes for your secretary/treasurer, and maybe a few others, a GATA dispatch from 10 years ago. An excerpt from that dispatch is below.

If the Northern Hemisphere was destroyed in a nuclear war, the Federal Reserve, JPMorganChase, and HSBC would get some brokers to Sydney, Rio de Janeiro, and Johannesburg to sell gold futures massively and drive the price down by at least 5%.

Storage and Withdrawal of Gold
with Bullion Star in Singapore
Bullion Star is a Singapore-registered company with a one-stop bullion shop, showroom, and vault at 45 New Bridge Road in Singapore.
Bullion Star's solution for storing bullion in Singapore is called My Vault Storage.
With My Vault Storage you can store bullion in Bullion Star's bullion vault, which is integrated with Bullion Star's shop and showroom, making it a convenient one-stop shop for precious metals in Singapore.
Customers can buy, store, sell, or request physical withdrawal of their bullion through My Vault Storage online around the clock. Storage rates are competitive.
For more information, please visit Bullion Star here:
Kitco market analyst Jon Nadler would crawl out from the rubble and opine to the cockroaches that the gold price had fallen because so many gold buyers had been killed, as he always had predicted would happen.
CPM Group's Jeff Christian would telephone New Zealand not to worry because he was flying down with reams of gold-colored paper that would work just as well in Wellington as it did in New York as long as nobody asked what was behind it.
And the World Gold Council would console itself with whatever high-fashion models could be found wearing nose rings in French Polynesia.
But with London and New York razed, at least we'd be spared more contrived rationalizations about the strange market action from the Financial Times and Wall Street Journal.
Monetary metals investors should understand that, as geopolitical analyst Jim Rickards somehow was allowed to say on CNBC three years ago, "When you own gold you're fighting every central bank in the world."
It's them or humanity, slavery or freedom. Get used to it. Besides, we're winning.
