The Gold Cartel

Government Intervention in Gold, the Mega-Bubble in Paper, and What This Means for Your Future

Beschreibung

The Gold Cartel is an insightful and thought-provoking analysis of the world market for gold, how it works, and what influences gold price. But it also lends insight into something more disturbing - the organized intervention in the gold markets by Central Banks.

Rezensionen

"From my studies in economic history I am not familiar with a single instance where a market manipulation has been successful in the long-term. Governments and their Agencies always impose price support or price suppression measures (for instance price and wage controls) but market forces always dispose of these interventions by prices collapsing through support levels or soaring though the temporary controlled prices. It is my opinion that soaring gold prices in future will completely destroy the little credibility central banks still enjoy. This is a very good and well researched read." - Marc Faber, Editor, The Gloom Boom and Doom Report

"The Gold Cartel is a brisk, articulate and convincing read. Even so, it remains extremely sound. A miracle!" - Professor Heinz Christian Hafke, former German Bundesbank Director
