Vespasian,

Ok, so the buying will not go unnoticed. But on the notion of being able to track down who did all that Gold and Securities buying, who is going to do it? Now there’s a job for the ever-vigilant eyes of the G-men at the SEC, CFTC, and other US Governmental Regulatory Agencies. The same folks who gave their sanctified blessings to Mr. Berine Madoff for over 20 years, and Mr. Don Chu!

Yeah, let’s knuckle down and put these hound-dog agency experts on the trail of tracking down how the North Korean surrogate traders, managed to buy humongus blocks of commodities and securities on the US Markets, just before a world shaking event. Yeah guy, that will work real good. We’ll just sic our government watch-dogs on poor Kim's lackys, and in no time we’ll nail his sleazy butt to the cross!

And, once these conniving deceitful NK surrogate trader devils have been identified, I’m absolutely positive that we’ll give that Ole Kim Jong IL many a sleepless night, just thinking about the multitudes of punitive actions the US Government will be slapping on him, as he sleeps on his multi-millions. My God it boggles the mind, he’ll be a nervous wreck by the time we finish with him! And that should forever stand as a harsh lesson, to him as well as others, not to dare play games with world financial markets once and for all.

I guess as you see it, in the USA and around the world, the Big Block Buying of Commodities and Securities, well ahead of World Shaking Events just doesn’t happen. It just doesn’t happen…right,…..“its impractical”….right. Somebody would notice,....right? And I suppose too that you also feel that HFT Algos do not have an unfair advantage over the average trader either? Since that too is Big Block Buying/Selling ahead of reported price events, and it too would get noticed and remedied……right.

After over 22 years in the Washington DC area, and a good number of those spent in the military and government civil service, I have learned, and painfully so, that just because some "impractical" things get "noticed", doesn't mean that they get proper remedy.

The North wins again.

SEOUL, South Korea – South Korea's military has canceled a live-fire artillery exercise planned for Tuesday on the front-line island targeted last week by a deadly North Korean bombardment.

Officials from the South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff told reporters Monday that the plans to fire artillery rounds into waters southwest of Yeonpyeong Island have been canceled.

The military did not give a reason for the cancellation.

NK/SK issue will resolve with out an all out. NK's neighbor to the north is still in infrastructure build out mode and economics of the global consumer that US/China have would place both nations at odds. Which would not be advisable because of the debt holdings of one of the sovereign nations.

Told you so. Cancellations of live fire excercises means "soft" solutions may be explored.

Non -event. Do your really think N Korea wants to fuck with Obama?

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to finish my fallout shelter. I'm not nervous or anything. I just figure it adds more value in this market than a pool.
:D
