William Kaye - The Savage Gold War Behind The Scenes

"With global stocks, the US dollar, and gold all surging, today one of the savviest and well connected hedge fund managers in the world sent King World News the most amazing chart concerning what is happening in the gold market.  Outspoken Hong Kong hedge fund manager William Kaye also spoke with KWN about what is really going on behind the scenes in the gold war.  Kaye, who 25 years ago worked for Goldman Sachs in mergers and acquisitions, had this to say in part II of his remarkable interview.
 
Kaye:  “As you and I are talking now, we’re a little bit below $1,250 on gold which is ridiculously low.  On the numbers we are looking at that would mean that roughly half of the production of the mining community of the world is unprofitable, which is stunning when you think about it.
What is going on is unprecedented....
“It’s unsustainable, and like anything that is unsustainable it won’t be sustained.  So this is a great opportunity for people who do have an interest in possibly adding to or initiating new positions in gold or precious metals.  We are at levels that I think are extremely attractive, Eric.”
Eric King:  “Bill, what about this chart that you sent me going over the various entities out there that hold gold for retail and institutional investors?  Can you talk about that?”
Kaye:  “Yes, I’m happy to.  Pick up the Wall Street Journal, the Financial Times, watch CNBC if you want to have your brain damaged, you’ll get the same narrative (regarding gold). 
And it’s a scary narrative, which is that people are panicked -- there is a bear market in gold.  And they (the mainstream media) never make a distinction between the paper market in gold and the physical bullion market.  That is a very important distinction for your listeners (and readers) to make.
But the narrative is that people are panicked, and because they are panicked they are selling into the market to whoever will buy.  And this is why the gold inventories, the Spyder Gold Trust and the other major exchange traded funds (gold holdings) have been so rapidly reduced.
The problem with that narrative is it’s not true ... Those exchange-traded funds are losing and are continuing to lose a lot of gold because it’s a manipulation.  The only people who can get access to the gold (at the exchange-traded funds) are the bullion banks themselves, and that’s exactly what they are doing.
And that gold is being transited from places like London and New York to places like Hong Kong and Shanghai.  This is what’s happening.  There is this major migration of gold from the West to the East.  And it’s ongoing, but we’re getting late in the game.
The Spyder Gold Trust, which is by far the largest ETF in the world and has provided the majority of the gold that has been used to execute the scam that is ongoing by the bullion banks, these guys have lost 30% of their inventory.  They have lost roughly 13 million ounces year-to-date.
Now how much has your friend Eric Sprott lost?  Because he has a similar class of ownership.  As I just said, the Spyder Gold Trust has lost 30% of the gold that they had at the beginning of the year, and yet Eric Sprott has lost virtually nothing.  He has lost a total of one bar.  Now, enquiring minds would ask themselves, if we have a bear market in physical gold, why have they redeemed 30% of the gold that exists in the Spyder GLD, but they’ve redeemed nothing in Eric Sprott’s fund (see chart below)?
The answer is obvious:  The major bullion banks can control and do manipulate what goes on in terms of Spyder GLD and the other trusts that have the same structure which only they can access.  Whereas the closed-end funds that exist in Canada, Europe, and the Sprott fund which is run by a reputable guy who is regularly on your program, Eric Sprott, the people who can redeem (from those funds) are not the bullion banks, but the actual owners of the funds.  
Well, guess what?  He (Eric Sprott) has received only one notification in this entire paper bear market.  One notification this entire year, and that was for one bar.  According to Eric, and I may have heard it on your program, he called the guy up to find out, ‘Why did you ask for one bar?’  And the guy said, ‘I wanted to test the system.’  As far as I’m concerned that tells me everything anyone should want to know.”
King World News note:  The chart below shows a remarkable zero percent loss of physical gold from both the Central Fund of Canada and Eric Sprott’s Gold Trust during the entire vicious decline in gold.  In contrast, you can also see the extraordinary declines in physical gold holdings in the global ETFs."
