The surge in the price of gold could leave the
Treasury's two year sell-off of its reserves, which
ends next month, nursing a loss of hundreds of

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

I have arrived in Washington a day early to work the
phones tomorrow regarding GATA's luncheon at the
National Press Club on Tuesday. We might as well
go all-out, especially after the wonderful article about
GATA in Insight Magazine by Kelly O'Meara. As
Insight is part of the Washington Times organization,
the GATA story will be all over Washington next

Hi, Chris:

I'm a currency strategist and have read a lot about GATA.
I would like to know what you think would happen in the

This will have a huge impact on spot forex medium-term
strategy. Most of us are already short yen on the
potential of bank default.

GATA supporters, and part of it is for

disproportionate position in derivatives of J.P.
Morgan Chase. Today it was the subject of John
Crudele's column in the New York Post, published
just a few blocks from the corner of Broad and
Wall Streets. It's a good bet that it was read by
some of the denizens of that neighborhood.
