RE: Final shaking of the tree IMOSHAKE IT!! SHAKE IT!!
I'll tell you all a secret.
The Fed WANTS gold and silver higher. It means their plan of paying off this impossible debt with cheaper dollars is working.
There was not one IOTA of a hawkish word in their statement. So here they are, the big money creating an illusion that there is too much silver etc. while they shake it - and then shake it again. and again for good measure.
