11:45 p.m. EDT Friday, May 14, 1999

Dear Friends of GATA and Gold:

GATA Chairman Bill Murphy is on the road for a couple
of days and there doesn't seem much to share tonight
about the gold market beyond the usual sources that you
probably check anyway, so I'll share this correspondence
between myself and Martin Armstrong of Princeton
Economics. I hope it's better than nothing!

A big development Thursday 5/13 GMT?

MIDAS COMMENTARY FOR MAY 12, 1999

By Bill Murphy

Spot Gold $276.80, down $1.10
Spot Silver $5.36, down 3 cents

Technicals....

Goldman Sachs and Deutsche were all over gold today,
selling it in "boatloads." They were all over it
yesterday too. The technicals are certainly bearish,
but they meant nothing on the upside and mean little
here either. This is a manipulated market. When the

"AH: George, you've obviously been watching the
'conspiracy' theorists who believe that every time the
gold price is ready to raise its head, something knocks
it back quite badly. We saw that happening again this
week. In fact last week the gold price seemed to be
heading above $290 and maybe even to $300 before the UK
announcement came out. What's your take on these

Rumors percolated through the zany, nutty, madcap
gold market this evening about some "announcement"

Trouble in the gold market?
Analysts see move to manipulate prices

By Jon E. Dougherty
c 1999 WorldNetDaily.com

Whether influenced by uncertainties stemming from Y2K
or because global financial markets took a dramatic
turn for the worst, most gold analysts agree that 1998
was a "record year" for sales. So far, in 1999, record
buying has not subsided, according to the U.S.

Spot Gold $277.30 down $5.30
Spot Silver $5.40 down 1 cent

Technicals --

Not so fast, Rip Van Winkle. Just as the gold market
was finally stirring up serious bullish commentary all
over the world, it was bushwhacked on Friday as the
shorts had to call in the Bank of England cavalry,to
announce that they are selling 415 tonnes of gold, to
defend "Navarone." The price of gold was sent reeling

GOLD PRICES OK HERE, FOR NOW!

Thu, 06 May 1999

To worry about the current low price of gold today is
the wrong approach since Y2K will take care of these
temporary price issues.

It is my opinion after 2 1/2 years and 3500 hours of
research and lectures that gold prices will have no
problem in advancing this Fall through the year 2000.
