James Turk: Some wonderful common-sense thinking about gold
8:18p ET Friday, December 16, 2005
Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
Well, it finally happened. GATA Chairman Bill Murphy
made it onto television in Canada today, and it wasn't
just local cable access in Old Crow, Yukon Territory
-- it was eight minutes on "Business Morning with Jim
O'Connell" on Report on Business Television, the cable
channel based in Toronto that is seen across Canada
and, thanks to its wonderful Internet site, around the
world as well.
Murphy got to explain the basics of the gold price
suppression scheme of the central banks and their
client bullion banks, got invited back for a longer
interview on ROB-TV, and was even cited on ROB-TV's
afternoon program, "The Trading Desk with Pat
Bolland," on which Dennis Gartman of The Gartman
Letter and Frank McGhee of Integrated Brokerage
Services were interviewed.
This seems to have been Gold Day on ROB-TV, since
"The Trading Desk" went on to interview David
Chapman, investment adviser and technical
strategist for Union Securities and a director of
the Milennium Bullion Fund.
Murphy predicted that gold isn't just going to the
moon but to solar systems yet to be discovered.
McGhee and Chapman seemed to consider gold's old
high price of $850 to be a reasonable target. Even
Gartman, whose newsletter notes almost every day
that he can't stand being in the company of anyone
who sees the least virtue in gold, confessed that
he today purchased shares of Newmont Mining and
the gold exchange-traded fund, GLD, and figures
that $490 is likely to be the bottom of gold's
recent pullback.
At the end of the segment with Gartman and McGhee,
Bolland promised an interview with Sean Boyd, CEO
of Agnico-Eagle Mines, a longtime GATA supporter,
but if that interview was actually broadcast, it
unfortunately hasn't made it onto the ROB-TV
Internet archive at this hour.
Murphy mentioned on ROB-TV that GATA is producing
a DVD of our Gold Rush 21 conference in Dawson
City, Yukon, last August. We expect that the DVD
will be ready for presentation at the Vancouver
Resource Investment Conference on January 22 and
23, where Murphy will be among the speakers:

We'll let everyone know when we've determined how
the DVD will be distributed.
You can find the ROB-TV Internet archive here:
http://www.robtv.com/shows/past_archive.tv
Murphy's segment is at 11:40 a.m. The Gartman and
McGhee segment is at 3:15 p.m. And the Chapman
segment is at 3:33 p.m.
Now, Americans, don't you wish CNBC was like this?
Don't you wish you lived in Canada? (OK, at least
in July and August?)
Between Murphy's appearance on ROB-TV today, his
interview in today's Toronto Globe and Mail,
one of Canada's nationwide newspapers (dispatched
to you this morning), and gold's recovery above
$500, this seems to have been a pretty good day
for GATA and gold.
Murphy has not been in contact with GATA
headquarters since this afternoon, when he was
being collected by some of his friends from Bay
Street. In light of GATA's success today, he was
talking about going to Old Crow, but they told
him that Red Wine was a lot closer.
No matter, for as today's Globe and Mail story
reported, he always comes back -- the gold
cartel's worst nightmare.
