Assault on gold update : http://www.stockhouse.com/columnists/2013/april/19/assault-on-gold-update

Excerpts:
I see the orchestrated effort to suppress the price of gold and silver as a sign that the authorities are frightened that trouble is brewing that they cannot control unless there is strong confidence in the dollar.

Possibly the Fed fears a dollar crisis or derivative blow up is nearing and is trying to reset the gold/dollar price prior to the outbreak of trouble. If ill winds are forecast, the Fed might feel it is better positioned to deal with crisis if the price of bullion is lower and confidence in bullion as a refuge has been shaken.
