Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
Reg Howe's latest commentary, quot;Gold: Cover or
Cover-up?,quot; summarizes comprehensively the
recent developments with gold and speculates
brilliantly about where gold and the
international economic order may be going.
Perhaps only Howe has such mastery of this
issue and an encyclopedic memory of events
going back decades. This is the essay that

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
There's an interesting report at CBSMarketWatch by
Chris Plummer, the site's personal finance editor,
about those ripoff coin commercials you may have
seen on late-night television. For goodness' sake, buy
gold and silver coins and bullion -- it's the best
revenge against gold's and silver's enemies -- but

John Embry, vice president of equities for RBC Global

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
Here's the best gold story of the month. What's
the difference between China's central bank and
the central banks of the West? China's central
bank is quite open about its intervention in the
gold market to suppress the price.
Here it is, in black and white below.

that this kind of thing doesn't happen? Is there
