All the markets are rigged my friend. Gold, Silver, Equities, Bonds. We no longer have free markets and no true price discovery as a result. With bank collusion, disregard for honesty in trading (unregulated & naked short selling in gold + silver) and central banks buying up stocks and bonds, private investors don't matter. The central banks have your back, for now, until they don't (which is where the real fun begins).
