Submitted by cpowell on Wed, 2006-09-13 08:26 Section: Daily Dispatches8:13a ET Wednesday, September 13, 2006
Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
GoldMoney founder James Turk, consultant to GATA and editor of the Freemarket Gold & Money Report, argues in new analysis posted today at GoldMoney.com that the recent smashing of gold and silver has been the same sort of cartel-assisted, bull-market correction the metals endured in June and that the metals are now "exceptionally good value." You can find Turk's analysis, headlined "History Repeats," in the "Founder's Commentary" box at the top left of the GoldMoney home page here:
