The price of gold got hit, as the technical analysts
thought it would. We thought it might too ... but
only because it had run quite a bit without taking
a breather.
Does it mean the bull market in gold is over? Is it
time to sell -- taking advantage of the 40 percent
gain since George W. Bush took over the White

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
TheBullionDesk.com today more or less accused
GATA of causing today's smashing of the gold
price. The accusation came in a brief market
note by the site's proprietor, Ross Norman,
suggesting that the World Gold Council's new
exchange-traded bullion fund had been forced
on Tuesday to sell 15 percent of its gold
holdings on account of "a foul attempt by a

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
My reply to David Walker's "open letter"
to me at TheBullionDesk.com and
321Gold.com was sent to both Internet
sites last night with my request that
it be posted.
The Bullion Desk responded this morning
with a fatuous editorial declaring that
it is "time to move on," while 321Gold's
proprietor responded with a malicious,

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
TheBullionDesk.com has posted my reply
to David Walker's open letter of
yesterday, but while Walker's open
letter was posted at the top of the
Internet site's home page with a big
headline all day, the reply has been
buried among the press releases that
quickly roll off the bottom of the
page and into the archive.

Most of the below commentary was written prior
to Wednesday's $15 gold price collapse. However,
it still remains applicable and further strengthens
my belief that important buying points are
approaching for both gold and the gold equities.
The current disconnect between the price action
of gold and the major and junior gold stocks has

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
David McKay of MiningMX.com today posts an
important interview with AngloGoldAshanti's
marketing director, Kelvin Williams, who all
but declares that central banks are trying
to regulate the gold price.
From the interview:
"Williams also said central bank attitudes toward
gold had changed because its profile as a store

of the usual museum fare of tango, Evita, and Argentine

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

John Mackenzie unrepentantly repeating his
prediction of an imminent reverse in the gold
price that will take it up to $556. You can
