    • Real Price of Gold Soars [view article]
      Convenietly left out the most important graph: Bond prices versus gold.
      In deflation bond prices outpace money. However, this time around bond prices have collapsed against gold. Shows you we have actually have hyperinflation.
      Regardless what story you buy these days, buy physical gold. Close your brokerage account, 401K and IRAs, and BUY GOLD.

    • Dissonance in the Markets [view article]
      a) Equities are having a party....

      b) ...because money printing is proping them up.

      c) ...therefore, the 2 year German govvys are lower on the day.because the bondmarket suspect that in the coming years hyperinflation will be le jeu du jour.

      d) ....but in the short term there are still credit problems and thus EMFX is trading in a risk averse fashion.

      e) ...Additionally, the euro is declining vis-avis the dollar because the mess in the US might be less than the mess in Euroland.

      It is not just trust that is important, it is liquidity as well. I think you may find it much harder to buy and sell physical palladium and platinum then physical silver and gold.
      Suppose you need to buy that last soupcan from your local grocer. I bet that he would rather exchange it for gold or silver than for palladium or platinum.

      You cannot tax people without jobs. If you try, you will have revolution, riots, and a burning white house.
      Hyperinflation is what is left.

      EUR and USD are both paper currencies. This time it is Europe's turn to print money and bailout banks.
      You should ask yourself why the West has suddenly all these problem. Why not in Japan, China, Brazil?
      Difference is: we are in debt, there are in surplus.

      "contribute as much to your 401k as possible"

      This is surely bad advice. If the middle class wants to preserve their wealth as muc has possible they should close out their 401K and plow all the money in hard assests in their own possesion.
