    a recent, short written interview with Jim, one of the better students on the topic of currency:

    "emerging countries are abandoning paper currencies in favor of physical gold, in anticipation of a collapse in the international monetary system"

    No doubt in my mind, that, at some point in the future, their is a financial disaster looming that will dwarf the great depression. Just have no idea when. Cheers, RickO

    Thanks for the links, guys. The bit about China buying up mines in Australia to increase their gold holdings without jacking up the market price was new to me. It makes perfect sense.

    Latest Jim Willie: The USTBond market is broken, and the USDollar cannot be defended

    "The bond market has converted into a Flash Trading arena within the bank syndicate to maintain bond prices. This is an explosive development, indicative of unsustainable sovereign bond prices kept up by round robin marked by internal sales within the Federal Reserve banks themselves. The breakdown of the USTBonds and USDollar has begun, a long process having come full circle after the highly destructive ZIRP & QE, both engrained in monetary policy. QE to Infinity will be ramped up, with double the volume of USTBond purchases in the next several months."

    And this just in: why the gold "bull market is only half over."
