that I shouldn't visit the gold floor. Some of the people still remember that episode.
They knew who was on the other side of the trade?
Yes, they knew.
Did they think that you knew something?
No, they probably thought I was just crazy, coming in and buying all that gold. Then, when the news broke
about five to ten minutes later, everybody started scrambling. I had an immediate $10 per ounce profit on 200,000
ounces.
It's hard to believe you could trade off the television news.
I know. I had never done it before. That was the first, last, and only time, but I did do it.
That particular gold market ended in a near-vertical rise and fall. Did you get out in time?
Yes, I got out around $750 on the way up. I felt sick, when I saw gold go up to nearly $900. But later when it
was back down to $400,1 felt much better about it.
