Gold price drop isn't sustainable with so much metal offtake, Maguire says

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

Today's dip in gold was used by central banks to obtain a bargain price on 40 tonnes of real metal, London metals trader Andrew Maquire tells King World News. Price suppression "cannot stick with this kind of volume coming through," Maguire says. "I saw premiums in Shanghai this morning at close to $26. That's outrageous. The Mumbai premiums are through the roof. If you want physical today, you are going to have to pay a premium price for it."

And if you want only paper? Why not save yourself some time and just flush your money down the toilet?

An excerpt from Maguire's interview is posted at the King World News blog here:

from the Sprott Precious Metals Round Table

Now you don't have to travel to attend a financial conference to hear Sprott Asset Management's precious metals experts -- Eric Sprott, Rick Rule, and John Embry. They held a round-table discussion on February 12 and you can watch it on the Internet. Among their topics:

-- Why are precious metals such a compelling investment opportunity?

-- Why are non-G7 central banks buying gold? Do Western central banks have any left?

-- Why are investors buying as much silver as gold in dollar terms? What does this mean for the price of silver?

-- Is the growing supply deficit of platinum and palladium going to push their prices higher?
