Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

What would you do if you ran an investment bank with the
most successful mutual fund manager in the world, a fund
manager who achieved a 153 percent return for his clients
in 2002 even as most mutual funds reported double-digit
losses?

If you were Royal Bank of Canada, you'd lose him, because
he had dared to make a success of what most investment

The recent selloff from the $390.80 high in
gold has not and, in my opinion, will not
alter the structure of this long-term bull
market in gold. Gold has always been and
will continue to be a market with
supply/demand skirmishes between titanic

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

Here's more commentary from the Globe and Mail in
Toronto about the sacking of Barrick CEO Randall
Oliphant. It notes that Oliphant can hardly be alone
at Barrick in responsibility for the company's big
hedging program. But maybe a point not made in this
commentary is important amid this week's decline
in the gold price. That is, Barrick's board probably

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

Thom Calandra, editor of CBSMarketWatch, has
commentary today predicting a meltdown in general
equities and a renewed rally in gold and gold shares.
This may not have been the best-timed of Calandra's
commentaries -- it was distributed this morning, just

friends may take some consolation in it after an

sneer at gold.
