The LBMA's Fair Value Prevention Team Goes For A Fish And Chips Break...

Tyler Durden's picture




 

...And an explosion in gold ensues. Furthermore, the market is perfectly efficient and $20 surges in gold are perfectly expected and thoroughly predicted according to Random Walk theory. At least that will be the alleged first sentence in JPM's defense against the DOJ's silver price manipulation antitrust suit.

So angry.

Emotions like this come from people when defending a belief.

When they know, they dont argue or get frustrated.

Hey Johnny

I don't own gold to trade for pennies. I own it because -- IT IS AN ACT OF REBELLION. Cause I am in the mood for that.

I don't know what the idiot is talking about.  I'm up nearly 100% on most of my gold, purchased during the Fall of 2008.  The trendlines all curve up from my vantage point.

It's not how much you make during the crisis, it's how much gold you have in your hands after the smoke settles.

VXX!

It's the best way to trade.  You can make considerable money on large swings in relatively short amounts of time, and you don't even have to follow individual stocks or sectors, just the general S&P index itself!

It's my favorite way to make money!  Just buy when the VIX is retardedly low, and be handsomely rewarded!

No, I never said I'd eat my hat if it went to 1220.  That's quite the lie.  (I did say I'd eat my hat, but 1220 wasn't the target for sure!  It was if it went to 2000 by June or something.  And look, it didn't!)

Look dumpster, you really need an English class.  You type like a retarded five year old.

I'm sure there's another post from you about zit cream, etc, somewhere.

Always the same, illiterate, stupid shit, from you.

You can barely read what you type!  It's pathetic!

Hi dumpster.  4 kids, 3 in business and 1 getting a PhD.  That's a great record.

We just have 1 daughter, she graduated with a BA a year ago, and now has a decent job.  She is probably a little younger than our great pal Bravo.  She did it on her own.  We are very proud of her.

You have every right to be proud of yours!  And the fact that you have children (among other things I suppose) helps make clear that diversification (esp. to gold) is a smart move.

H/T to you.

Actually, JB, if you take yourself out of dumpster's remarks you can see genius there.

His writing is pure poetry, very visual.

He goes after you because of your vehemence vs. gold.

...

You should also know that being a father makes a difference.  You begin to think longer term.  Gold as insurance then starts looking pretty good.

I'm pretty sure dumpster is a her, first of all.

If you call that illiterate tripe "pure poetry" than you just may have an understanding of jibberish that I do not.  The arguments barely make sense, in addition to being illiterate.

I can understand the arguments for gold, but for Christ's sake this person needs some sixth grade English lessons....

I wanna buy more, waaa, waaa, waaa!

C'mon JPM, COMEX, LBMA, please bring the price down $50 one last time.  Please!  I won't bother you ever again.

Soon as that money lands, I'm buying more.  But, please Messrs. Shorts, please bring it down just one last time.  Thx guys.  Really would appreciate it.

...

And if Bravo is right about gold going WAY DOWN, well so much the better.  I have ZeroTrust in the Obama/Geithner/Bernanke team to pull us out of this.  If we get a "green shoot" pop-up of a recovery while gold gets bashed, I will just keep BUYING, because I do not see a way out of the debt traps.

Gold will go up $5,000>, that's for sure, even though the Gold Protection teams all efforts, there will always be ups and downs but downs are the game play of FED cartel and their counter-parties in LMBA.

They have used most of their monthly ammo and they are letting the price go up so that they can find some Jhonny Bravo's to sell and cover their paper future gold promises. This world is full of JB's so we will see where they can finish their fish and chips and start to protect again.

There's also nothing humorous about what I post.  The only thing that is humorous is people saying that a 20 dollar gain is an EXPLOSION or that gold will be at 2000 by June.

I still don't know who the hell this Nadler guy is.

Wow, YOU don't know who John Nadler is?  I would think you had lunch with him every day.  You, like Nadler, are a permabear on gold, except that Nadler has been a permabear since $250.

But anyways, enjoy your VXX.  I hope you make a hundred trillion dollar bill.

Jon Nadler is the main commentator at kitco.com, a gold site & store (with up to the minute gold prices).

Some of us have wondered why kitco would employ a spokesman who is often so bearish on gold, when they sell the stuff?  Indeed, good question...

So you like playing the VIX through the VXX?

Have you looked at the correlation between these two charts.

By owning the VXX, you get 80-100% of the downside and only about 50-60% of the upside.

If you were as knowledgable, informed and as wealthy as you claim to be, you would know of far better ways to accomplish your goal.

If you spent less time pointlessly yelling about gold's flaws, you may know this.
