On Money Metals Exchange podcast, GATA secretary explains U.S. rigging of gold market

4:26p ET Friday, March 20,  2026 Dear Friend of GATA and Gold: Your secretary/treasurer is the guest on this week's market wrapup podcast with Mike Maharrey of Money Metals Exchange, discussing why the U.S. government long has manipulated the monetary metals markets and how it has been done. We also discuss the major gold and silver exchange-traded funds and how they can be used by their "authorized participants" -- the large investment banks that are also bullion banks and camouflage the intervention of central banks. The interview is a half-hour long and begins at the 8:55 mark here:  https://www.moneymetals.com/podcasts/2026/03/20/chris-powell-how-why-governments-try-to-keep-a-handle-on-gold-004779 CHRIS POWELL, Secretary/Treasurer Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee Inc.
