Investors who pay attention to Japan’s looming election can expect to be well-rewarded for their time. Normally, we confess, Japanese elections don’t matter much, because the same guys always win. However, this one – set for Aug. 30 – looks different: It may actually bring about the first real change in Japan’s government in 55 years. That’s important.

Despite a falling US$ and wall-to-wall bad economic news, someone was there to sell off gold and silver as soon as Globex trading began in the Far East on Monday morning. After that, there was a stair-step down in the price…four different bouts of not-for-profit selling…2 a.m., 5:00 a.m., the Comex open…and shortly before lunch in New York. All times are Eastern. After each suspicious sell off, gold tried to rally…but each attempt, big or small, ran into a willing seller. Neither metal had a chance.
