"When Gold Goes Above 1430 We Whack It"

• zerohedge.com by Allan Flynn

In a bid to have UBS reinstated as a defendant in a London Gold Fix antitrust lawsuit, plaintiffs documents submitted to a New York Court last week include explosive chat room transcripts of UBS and traders from different banks encouraging each other to "push," "smack," and "whack" gold prices.

The transcripts are equally as startling as those described of banks of the London Silver Fix and UBS given to the court the previous day and described last week in this article.

On December 6th attorneys for plaintiffs in a consolidated class action against banks of the London Gold Fix and UBS, asked the court for leave to amend with a Third Amended Complaint. The TAC includes additional facts based on a "limited set of cooperation materials" produced by former defendant Deutsche Bank, as part of a settlement agreement and further statistical analysis.
