Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

The most successful mutual fund manager in the world,
John Embry, vice president of equities for RBC Global
Investment Management and manager of Royal Bank
of Canada's precious metals fund, sounded exactly
like GATA Chairman Bill Murphy in a long interview on
national television in Canada this week.

Embry was interviewed on ROB-TV's quot;Market Callquot;

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.

Is there really anyone left who seriously argues
that this kind of thing doesn't happen? Is there

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

Barrick Gold says it will sue Blanchard amp; Co.
for libel in Canada for statements connected
to Blanchard's anti-trust complaint against
Barrick in federal court in the United

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

Vancouver and the Vancouver Resources Investment
Conference, sponsored by Cambridge House, could
not have been more welcoming to GATA, especially
since the conference, held at the city's convention
center, was right around the corner from Howe Street
and the Sinclair Centre, which, we fancied, soon
will be renamed for our heroes Reg and Jim,

As the short interest in gold shares started to increase, it was
easy to excuse the phenomenon as a product of what occurs

appropriate options that would apply.

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

GATA doesn't necessarily think much of the essay
from Canada's National Post that is appended here,
but at least it shows that gold is becoming a
mainstream issue.

The essay's author wonders whether Fed Chairman
Alan Greenspan is hinting at a new gold standard.
