The Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee was organized in January 1999 to advocate and undertake litigation against illegal collusion to control the price and supply of gold and related financial securities. The committee arose from essays by Bill Murphy, a financial commentator, and by Chris Powell, a newspaper editor in Connecticut, published at Murphy’s Internet site, www.lemetropolecafe.com.

Gold Plunges After 1.8 Million Ounces Were Traded in 1 Minute
By Eddie Van Der Walt
Bloomberg News
Monday, June 26, 2017
Gold sank like a stone at 9 a.m. in London after a huge spike in volume in New York futures that traders said was probably the result of a "fat finger," or erroneous order.
Trade shot up to 1.8 million ounces of gold in just a minute, a level not reached even with the surprise election of U.S. President Donald Trump or Britain's vote to leave the European Union.

When It Bursts, Bullion Owned in the Safest Way Will Protect Wealth
With GoldCore you can own allocated -- and most importantly -- segregated coins and bars in Switzerland, Singapore, and Hong Kong.
Switzerland, Singapore, and Hong Kong remain extremely safe jurisdictions for storing bullion. Avoid exchange-traded funds and digital gold providers where you are a price taker. Ensure that you are outright legal owner of your bullion. If you do not own segregated bullion that you can visit, inspect, and take delivery of, you are exposed.

"No one has a clue, apart from the unfortunate individual that pressed the wrong button," David Govett, head of precious metals trading at Marex Spectron Group in London, said of the spike in volume. Thin activity and automated trading may exacerbate such moves, he said.
Others said a trader may have made a larger order than intended, or underestimated the market's ability to absorb so much gold. ...
Rising use of computer-driven algorithmic trading has often been blamed for extraordinary movements in financial markets, known as flash crashes, in recent years.
"These moves are going to become more widespread with the way things are going," Govett said by email. "The more they happen, the worse they will become as people back away from holding positions."

Huge Sell Order Pushes Gold to Six-Week Low
By Zanhi Shabalala
Reuters
Monday, June 26, 2017
LONDON -- Gold tumbled to its lowest price in nearly six weeks as a large sell order and a stronger dollar hit sentiment today, though losses were limited by political
uncertainty around the world. ...
The sale of 18,500 lots of gold, totalling 1.85 million ounces, and 5,000 ounces of silver in 5,500 lots on Comex in a short space of time was behind falling prices, said Afshin Nabavi, head of trading at MKS in Switzerland.
"Clearly somebody sold it by mistake and bought it back quickly, triggering stops below $1,250," said MKS trader Bernard Sin. ...

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
Zero Hedge this morning seems first to notice the punishment inexplicably inflicted on the gold futures market "on a surge in volume with 18,000 contracts, or just over $2 billion notional, trading in a one-minute window, with "volumes running around 150 percent of recent averages" as of 9:20 a.m. London time.
Zero Hedge adds that "the sudden selling soaked up all the liquidity in the gold market in seconds, with the clear intention of repricing gold lower."
Fortunately for the people manipulating the market, the monetary metals mining industry, the World Gold Council, and mainstream financial news organizations, and most gold and silver market analysts won't express the slightest curiosity about this.
The Zero Hedge report is headlined "Gold Flash Crashes As 'Someone' Dumps $2 Billion; 'Fat Finger' Blamed" and it's posted here:

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
The explosion in cryptocurrencies, Sprott Asset Management's John Embry tells King World News today, signifies the growing desire of people to escape the fiat currency system, an escape cut off for the moment by the suppression of gold and silver prices by shorting by governments and their allied investment banks. But, Embry says, this only makes the monetary metals, and especially silver, the most undervalued assets and they will follow the cryptos eventually. Embry's comments are excerpted at KWN here:

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
Monetary Metals, the Scottsdale, Arizona-based company that provides investors opportunities to earn interest on gold that is paid in gold, today announced that it is publishing daily "gold forward" and "silver forward" interest rates of the sort formerly published by the London Bullion Market Association -- the interest rate charged by bullion dealers for lending gold and silver against U.S. dollars.
In an announcement written by the comapny's vice president for operations, Bron Suchecki, formerly of the Perth Mint, Monetary Metals said: "The forward rate is important to gold mining, refining, jewelry, mint, and industrial manufacturing companies because their financing and hedging transactions depend on it. However, the LBMA stopped publishing GOFO in January 2015 and SIFO in in November 2012."
Monetary Metals Chief Executive Officer Keith Weiner said: "We are providing the daily forward and lease rates as a service to the industry."
The announcement by Monetary Metals is posted at the company's internet site here:

Options on Gold Futures May Be Launched in August
By Ram Sahgal
The Times of India, Mumbai
Friday, June 23, 2017
http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/markets/commodities/news/options-on-...
Traders of equity options will soon get a new product to punt or hedge on -- options on gold futures. MCX, the country's largest commodity derivatives exchange, could introduce the options by August, two persons familiar with the development said. One of them said the chief draw for equity option players would be the cheaper cost to trade.
The cost to trade one lot (1 kilo) of gold futures at Ruprees 28.6 lakh was Rupees 1.43 lakh, or around 5 percent intraday on Thursday. An option contract will be available at just a fifth of that, or Rupees 29,000, one of the persons said. The gold futures contract is costlier than trading even one lot of Titan futures at Rupeess 1.25 lakh intraday on Thursday.
Gold options "would be a draw for those who want to take exposure to commodity futures and options at a cheaper cost," the other person said. ...
