in the gold market by Frank Veneroso and John Brimelow
of Veneroso Associates, probably the world's most

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
If you're not sick yet of analysis of Monday's
developments in gold, you may enjoy this interesting
post by the always interesting Ted Butler at
www.kitco.com. Butler's analysis has paralleled GATA's
