Gold Trader: “This Is What Has To Happen—To Generate The Conditions Necessary For A Bubble Phase”

I agree with Savage that manipulated markets reverse with violence once the manipulation breaks, but when the manipulators are the world's most powerful banking cartel (central banks and the bullion banks working as their agents), the manipulation can continue far longer than rational thought.  They essentially have unlimited funds to manipulate markets, whether it's to prop up equities and bond markets (with QE), or to artificially suppress the precious metals bourses.

But all manipulations must come to an end--by definition, because they are unnatural and repeal the economic laws of supply and demand, which always come true eventually.
