The 'Ben' speaks. Classic paper raid. Staged.......................from Rico

Another 'classic' Cartel 'staged' operation centered upon RUMINT (rumor passing for intelligence) that the FED may 'taper' it's QEternity.

- Oh, the hilarity! As if the FED can do anything but continue being the money fairy and do even more QE...because to do otherwise would surely crash everything.

The 'timing' was set around Ben's speech at the SIFI conference in Chicago, and the precious metals were clearly 'raided' in the finest Chicago-style drive-by the crooks could muster.

While the FTV shills falsely call the paper 'raid' on paper Gold and paper Silver anything BUT what it really is, they also provide 'cover for action' for this collusive and criminal manipulation.

The message is clear: equities GOOD and are on a 'tear' and you don't want to "miss" this opportunity (never mind that this is a FED-fueled Ponzi scam which will burn everyone who buys the argument and becomes the 'greater fool'), and bullion is BAD and 'risky' so stay away from it!

- Sure. Riiight. Just try and locate, much less buy, a quantity of physical bullion for immediate delivery at these faux-paper 'spot' prices. You won't find any, but take comfort in the prettily-engraved non-redeemable fiat you hold...it burns well, and has 'other' practical uses that you'd otherwise be using your hand for.
