Haven't read much of the FOFOA stuff but some links in with what Rickards talked about in The Death of Money; if we can believe that the big players are co-operating behind the scenes to deal with the eventual monetary reset then that explains the big players buying up gold while it gets trashed in the press. Working theory being that once they all have a similar gold to gdp % ratio then an orderly reset can begin. If the reset happens outside of their control before then, so be it, but its coming.
