The Questions CFTC and Fed Won’t Answer Expose Gold Price Suppression Policy

by Chris Powell, Gold Seek:

If mainstream financial news organizations ever work up the courage to report honestly about monetary gold, the commanding heights of the issue will have been mapped out for them by U.S. Rep. Alex X. Mooney, R-West Virginia.

After all, where can investigative journalism start better than with questions that already have been shown to be too politically sensitive for the highest government officials to answer, even when a member of Congress is asking?

Thanks to Mooney, in 2020 the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission was shown refusing to answer whether it has jurisdiction over manipulative trading in the commodity futures markets when such trading is undertaken by or at the behest of the U.S. government:

Locked and Loaded

by Ted Butler, Silver Seek:

We have now reached the point in silver (and gold) where it is difficult for me to see how prices don’t quickly explode. Everything I look at, from a physical supply/demand perspective to the paper positioning set up on the COMEX, tells me we are at the point where only an upward price surge makes any sense. Yes, I am well-aware of the thoroughly corrupt behavior of the collusive commercials on the COMEX and how their manipulative success over the past 40 years makes it nearly impossible to pinpoint in advance the exact moment such a long-term scam and fraud will come to an end – but recent developments scream out to me that the manipulation’s end is at hand.

The Long View: COMEX Precious Metal Prices in 2024

by Craig Hemke, Sprott Money:

An easily-predictable short squeeze has lifted COMEX precious metal prices off their recent floor. Equally predictable is the current rush to proclaim that new highs for 2024 will soon be forthcoming.

Let’s start with the latest Spec short squeeze. How can I say it was easily predictable? Below are X posts from yours truly on February 6 with follow up on February 9:

The Fed Gave Precious Metals Investors The Green Light

by Dave Kranzler, Investment Research Dynamics:

Yesterday (Wednesday, December 13th) the Fed signaled the end to interest rate hikes and, in so many words, implied that now the timing of rate cuts is being informally discussed. While stocks and bonds staged a rally, the precious metals sector sprinted higher. Gold and silver rose 2.4% and nearly 5%, respectively, while the mining stocks as represented by GDX soared over 6%. Across the board, the precious metals sector and mining stocks in terms of percentage price gains ran circles around the rest of the stock market. This should be the start of a long, sustained bull cycle in the precious metals sector that could take even seasoned gold bugs like me by surprise with the size of the moving coming.

No Let Up

by Ted Butler, Silver Seek:

It seems to me that the forces at play in silver, both working for and against sharply higher prices, show no signs of letting up. However, common sense and logic dictate that such diametrically-opposed forces point to an eventual end to the stalemate – with the only real question being when. Since these opposing forces have been in play for 40 years, they have taken on a life of their own and the purpose of this review is a brief overview and summary.

Let me start with the forces that have worked to suppress and manipulate the price of silver to be much lower than any objective analysis would suggest, both on an absolute basis and relative to just about any other commodity or asset, most specifically, gold. The direct cause of silver’s 40-year price suppression is collusive commercial (mostly bank) paper positioning on the COMEX, the world’s leading precious metals derivatives exchange.
