Remember, Gold OTC options expires Friday and Comex options expire today. Gold, gold derivatives and gold equities are such a small part of the market that manipulation, intentionally or unintentionally, is easy. Since most professionals are very short-term oriented, contrary to what they recommend to us, you have extreme volatility around expiration times.

If gold were such a great investment, why are there s many places SELLING it instead of holding on to it? That is, if the gold is so valuable, why do they want to trade it for my money?

I wish it was manipulation but the march to safety has been too steady to convince me this is options related.
