it is very simple /for me and this is just my opinion/...
i think that we can forget this type of conspiration theories. the price of gold is rising mainly becouse of this 2 things.
falling of USD value and recesion - let me explain this bit more. so many people out there lost their jobs, investment in shares etc... and now they still have to pay for mortgage, school fees, car loans, energy, food etc. there is upsurge in cash4gold type companies becouse they know that some people will be first tempted then forced to sell their gold or whatever valuable items they have. that is why so many sell-your-gold firms are out there now. they can afford to spend money for advertisement as ad prices fell significantly and prices they pay for your gold is funny. it is not government as something like that is hard to cover just few clever people making quick money when they pay so little and sell over spot. while loads of people lost nearly everything you can still find fair amount of people with money willing to put them in gold as investment rather than keep them in bank.
