RE:Aug. 22, 2023Yes indeed and the manipulation is evident statistically because when there is a day when gold is up , gold stocks go down the next day --- they just almost never have a 2 day run lately which from a probability point of view has astronomical odds. Extra money could be invested short at the end of an up day and its a good bet that the next day one or more manipulated economic indicators will smash gold down - sometimes manipulators do it minutes before the news goes out (to be first I suppose) .
