Back in April, the Cartel Shills and Apologists attempted to minimize the news that a settlement had been reached regarding a “nuisance lawsuit” alleging price rigging in gold and silver. As we told you at the time and on many occasions since, this case is instead quite significant and very important. The latest update on the case, released late yesterday, sheds more light upon what we’ve always known was taking place behind the scenes in the “free and fair precious metals markets”.
First, just another reminder of the two key points:
Because of Deutschebank’s settlement offer and willingness to turn “state’s evidence” in the case, for the very first time a civil lawsuit regarding gold and/or silver price manipulation is being allowed to move forward into the legal discovery phase. This means depositions, affidavits and subpoenas. Never before has a case been allowed into this phase as all previous civil suits were thrown out by Bank-favored judges before discovery could begin.
