It's How You Play The Game.......................from Rico

It's HOW you play the game all right, but if you're the Cartel (bullion banks and central banks) it is all about winning, NOT losing!

Purely 'coincidental' and having absolutely nothing to do with today's 7/31 FOMC release, today's PM markets are a case in point.

- After being paper-hammered all day long, at the COMEX close spot paper Gold was at $1313.85 and spot paper Silver at $19.70. Post-FOMC in the access market, Gold spiked to $1327.90 and Silver to $19.95. The day before (7/30) their respective COMEX close was $1325.55 and $19.75.

A similar pattern appeared 7/26.

- At the COMEX close Gold stood at $1323.45 and Silver at $19.83. In the access market later that day Gold reached $1330.60 and Silver $19.99. The day before (7/25) their respective COMEX close was $1330.55 and $20.23.

See the 'pattern' here? Sense that it's almost as if somone knew in advance?

- If you do, you are disqualified for a position with the SEC or CFTC, and you certainly will NOT be considered as competition for Larry Summers!

It's simply amazing that a 'free market' can achieve such a tight number pattern. The mathematical odds of doing this randomly are astronomical.

- Of course, if you are trading paper futures, you can make an amazing amount of money by 'knowing' in advance how the game is rigged and what the numbers are going to be...before they get there. If you're 'connected' that is......it's good to have low friends in high places.
