Article from last week but still relevant showing that some major US banks have massive short positions they need to try and get out of, depending on the outcome of this fiscal cliff thing gold could shoot up... - Maybe they need to drop the price to get out of their shorts and/or create a nice big dip to buy in the event of financial meltdown...
Gold futures market heading for crisis
The silver situation is even worse:
While there is a large stock of gold that can theoretically become available at higher prices, the same cannot be said for silver. We shall look at the position of the US banks first. The first silver chart shows that even though silver is trading well below its 2011 highs, US banks’ net shorts are substantially higher than might be expected. The long figure is down to only 625 contracts, while the shorts are 40,198, so these less-than-four-banks that reported last week have a net short exposure of nearly 200,000,000 ounces, or twice the estimated annual supply of silver available to investors after industrial demand is allowed for."Is someone you don't like allowed to say something you don't like?

Originally posted by Paddy View PostThe majority of gold is "paper gold" that is not backed up by actual gold; it is just like betting at Ladbrokes. Many investors have are concerned that the banks can not pay out on demand as there is not enough gold to meet demand therefore, investors are selling up.If UKIP are the answer, then it must have been a very stupid question.Comment
