   > GOLD PRICE FIXING BOMBSHELL

   > William Murphy, chairman of Gold Anti- Trust Action (GATA), shocked   
   > the Commodities Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) by revealing the   
   > name and position of a whistle blower who had warned the CFTC   
   > Enforcement Division of market manipulation by JPMorgan Chase in   
   > advance of it happening and had witnessed Morgan traders boasting of   
   > their exploits.   
   >   
   > The March 25 meeting was a “sham,” filled with deception and half-   
   > truths and with the “liars and thieves behaving like cornered rats,”   
   > according to several of those present. In what might have been a   
   > harbinger of things to come, CFTC announced a week before the hearing   
   > that they had had a fire in the room where its gold and silver records   
   > are held. No further information as to what kind of damage occurred   
   > was released.   
   >   
   > Then during the six-hour hearing, the only time the live video feed   
   > went down was from one minute before Bill Murphy spoke until one   
   > minute afterward. Next, when he was finally asked a question by the   
   > panel, the audio mysteriously went out until right at the end of his   
   > answer.   
   >   
   > When asked for some hard proof of the manipulation, Murphy released a   
   > well-guarded bombshell from a whistleblower who had been sending   
   > emails to the CFTC explaining how JPMorgan traders were rigging the   
   > gold market and then bragging about it. The whistleblower, a London   
   > metals trader named Andrew Maguire, had some quite damning evidence   
   > against the cartel, but the CFTC panel was visibly reluctant to learn   
   > any more and asked nothing else about it.   
   >   
   > In November 2009, Maguire contacted the CFTC enforcement division to   
   > report this criminal activity. He described in detail the way JPMorgan   
   > Chase signals to the market its intention to take down the precious   
   > metals.   
   >   
   > Traders recognize these signals and make money shorting the metals   
   > alongside JP Morgan. Maguire explained how there are routine market   
   > manipulations at the time of option expiry, non-farm payroll data   
   > releases and commodities exchange contract rollover, as well as ad-hoc   
   > events.   
   >   
   > On Feb. 3, Maguire gave a two-day warning by email to Eliud Ramirez, a   
   > senior investigator for the CFTC’s Enforcement Division, that the   
   > precious metals would be attacked upon the release of the non-farm   
   > payroll data on Feb. 5. On Feb. 5, as market events played out exactly   
   > as predicted, further emails were sent to Ramirez while the   
   > manipulation was in progress.   
   >   
   > It would not be possible to predict such a market move unless the   
   > market was manipulated. Murphy explained that despite the Enforcement   
   > Division receiving detailed information in December 2009, the   
   > manipulation continues unabated as can be seen by the way gold was   
   > taken down during the last week of March in order to rob holders of   
   > April gold call options in the strike range of $1,100 to $1,150, as   
   > the hammering made them expire as worthless.   
   >   
   > GATA believes this new evidence and “smoking gun” will be a watershed   
   > event in liberating the gold market from its shackles of price   
   > suppression.   
   >   
   >   
   >   
   > In a bizarre twist of events, the London metals trader and recent   
   > whistleblower Maguire and his wife were hit with a mysterious   
   > misfortune only a day after testifying. They were both injured and   
   > hospitalized when their car was struck by a hit-and-run driver in the   
   > London suburbs.   
   >   
   > According to Adrian Douglas, who is Maguire’s contact man at GATA,   
   > Maguire and his wife were admitted to a hospital overnight and   
   > released and are expected to recover fully.   
   >   
   > Maguire told Douglas by telephone that his car was struck by a car   
   > careening out of a side road. When a pedestrian who witnessed the   
   > crash tried to block the other driver’s escape, the other driver   
   > accelerated at the pedestrian, causing him to jump out of the way to   
   > avoid being hit. The other driver’s car then struck two additional   
   > cars in escaping.   
   >   
   > As dramatic as this story is, there was another “bombshell” exposure   
   > revealed during the hearing. This was the testimony that Douglas was   
   > able to deliver during the hearing while assisting Harvey Organ with   
   > his testimony.   
   >   
   > Douglas was able to introduce arguments that the London Bullion Market   
   > Association (LBMA) over-the-counter gold market is nothing but a   
   > massive “paper gold” ponzi scheme. What was then astonishing is that   
   > the bullion bank apologist, Jeffery Christian, of CPM Group, who has   
   > always been staunchly against GATA, actually endorsed the Douglas   
   > comments as being “exactly right” and went on to confirm that the LBMA   
   > trades over 100 times the amount of gold it actually has to back the   
   > trades.   
   >   
   > However, when Christian was asked directly, “Are  you concerned that   
   > the shorts will not be able to deliver when called upon?” he said he   
   > was not, because it has been going on for decades, and “there are any   
   > number of mechanisms allowing for case settlements.”   
   >   
   > Douglas had the final word, however. “He clearly does not understand   
   > that this is failure to deliver,” responded Douglas.
