    Let's go without blaming somone for conspiracy theories. As it could turn out that fundamental things everyone belived are in fact conspiracy theories and some conspiracy theories are true.

  • Remember that story about the boy who cried wolf....? If you keep crying wolf every time you see your shadow, when the real wolf comes no one will believe you, and a lot of people will get hurt.

    knock it off.

  • This is showing up on many financial blogs. http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2013/04/why-is-gold-crashing.html

    Oil is also down and the economic news from Europe is looking rather grim. Its a good thing that the spring weather has finally arrived. http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2013/apr/16/eurozone-crisis-growth-markets-oil-price

  • It's the wolf pretending to be the shepherd you gotta be wary of, and the sheep of-course. It's gonna play out one of two ways, either we get slow cooked or gamma waved.

  • @squig

    No 9/11 things here, I already asked for this.

  • China triggers Gold collapse, then they step in and buy it all up on the cheap. Nice doing business. :-)

  • China triggers Gold collapse, then they step in and buy it all up on the cheap.

    Issue is that China can't do it. And biggest previous slam in ten years was in July 2008.

  • Interesting just in: http://www.international-adviser.com/news/asia/chinese-investors-buy-gold-as-rest-of-world

    and here the original column although it goes on about consumers

    http://www.scmp.com/business/money/wealth/article/1215940/when-it-comes-gold-price-war-bullish-chinese-consumers-cant

    The funny thing is is that most of the investment cos are 'puzzled' by the collapse!

  • One rumor says... the gold capitulation is due to unwinding of yen carry trade on gold investment. I'm pretty sure physical gold street price hasn't plunged. If gold is treated as a commodity, copper hasn't been doing well either. This year might be bad year for commodity groups.

  • Conspiracy theories are boring.

  • @stonebat

    Nothing is boring :-) Especially alternative theories (btw conspiracy is shitty word).

  • It looked like Black Powder to me which concerns me. I shoot a lot of it and it's hard enough to get now. The sad thing is with all these tragedies is that I get a few minutes to feel compassion for the victims, then start covering my backsides because I know the Government will use it to but bang us all.

    I guess now we'll have to register our pressure cookers and get strip searched before watching public races.

    I was wondering if it even made a blip on the overseas radar..... apparently a small one.

  • @driftwood The usual suspects are naked short selling paper gold.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naked_short_selling

    And in relation the current falling price of gold and The Fed's manipulation... http://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2013/04/13/assault-on-gold-update-paul-craig-roberts/

    This is causing many physical investors to panic and dump their physical gold.

    There are now shortages of physical gold and silver. Either someone is buying most of it (physical metal sales are indeed strong) and/or the big physical gold holders are hanging onto the real stuff while they spook the smaller guys into dumping their physical so they can buy it up cheap. China has been buying a lot of gold.

    On the face of it the current rampant fiat money printing ponzi scheme should be causing gold to rise, not fall.

    At some point when it is revealed 'The Emperor has No Clothes' gold will rally again but by then it will be consolidated in the hands of the few.

    When Goldman Sachs tells you gold is finished and to get out of it should you heed their advice?

    Cast your mind back just a few short years ago when Goldman Sachs said...

    "These mortgage backed securities are triple A rated and are as safe as 'houses'. Trust us... after all we're doing 'God's work'!"

    Then at the same time Goldman were selling their mortgage backed 'in'securities to pension funds they were placing bets that they were going to blow up because they knew they would. So they made money (fees) on the sales and money on the bets.

    Nothing but manipulation at its finest!

  • The Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee was organized in the fall of 1998 to expose, oppose, and litigate against collusion to control the price and supply of gold and related financial instruments.

  • Things looks now like 24 series episode :-)

    Same crap and witch hunt.

  • How can people say the explosion is vfx, when their is acknownledged it was sort of a pipe bomb? maybe it is diffrent footage, but the real deal is not vfx and post-grime.

    It wouldnt surprise me that some patriot or tea party members organized this, this way the gun law must stay to "arm" yourself.

    The 'ban' is not likely, anyone can make bombs, i would rather think it is not made from black powder, since it is not that powerfull, compared to silverpowder, which is Magnesium and blackpowder combined.

  • For me personally, I have never felt or believed in any conspiracy theory, or tea party, or Al Qeada, etc. What is fucked up is that ever since OJ Simpson, CNN, FB, Twitter, etc - our society has become the butt of it's own jokes. Everyone jumping to conclusions, racial profiling, the 'towel head' menace, you fucking name it - every ridiculous opinion is broadcasted in real time.

    Innocent people died - and that's fucked up. And what do we get? A live version of GTA - Boston, all we need are some hookers and pimps.

  • Interesting. Nobody has anything to say now that we hear that a couple of Chechen kids who bombed the Boston Marathon... What happened to the crazy theories and stuff? Nobody is claiming that it was CIA mind control or anything! I'm disappointed! :)

  • Scientists have a crazy theory: The Universe was created by a Big Bang! So far, law enforcement agencies haven't caught the guy(s) who did it. But scientists are way more crazy: they say no one was responsible! :) Politicians also have crazy theories: That bailing out banks will improve the economy!

  • @ svart If you believe that story there's probably nothing I can say to change your mind. The stuff coming out of the bowels of the corporate media is ludicrous.
