James Turk Blog: Banks and National Currencies Have Real Risks

"The underlying and most fundamental usefulness of the precious metals remains unchanged. They are money outside the banking system. The risks of depositing money in a bank are clear from the events of Cyprus, and before that debacle, Lehman Brothers, Northern Rock and countless other bank collapses that litter the landscape of monetary history. Banks and the national currencies they use have real risks."

This Gold Slam Is A Massive Wealth Transfer From Our Pockets To The Banks

"The most recent gold bear raid has vastly enriched the bullion bankers, once again, at the expense of everyone trying to protect their wealth from global central bank money printing. The central plank of Bernanke's magic recovery plan has been to get everybody back borrowing, spending, and "investing" in stocks, bonds, and other financial assets. But not equally so - he has been instrumental indistorting the landscape towards risk assets and away from safe harbors. That's why a 2- year loan to the US government will only net you 0.22%, a rate that is far below even the official rate of inflation. After the two years is up, you are up $44k (interest) but out $260k (inflation) for net loss of $216,000. That wealth, or purchasing power, did not just vanish: it was taken by the process of inflation and transferred to someone else. This explains, almost completely, why the gap between the rich and everyone else is widening so rapidly, and why financiers now populate the top of every Forbes 400 list. There is no mystery, just a process of wealth transfer of magnificent and historic proportions; one that has been repeated dozens of times throughout history."

Silver Goes Higher As Bitcoin Hysteria Shifts To Non Electronic Money

"It would appear that physical assets trump digital assets this morning in Europe as Silver has just spiked over 1% (and Gold back over $1615) as Bitcoins plunge on heavy volume... Did the Europeans run out of Bitcoins? Given the lack of movement in 'traditional' currency markets, one has to wonder just how much faith has been lost in the folding fiat fiasco."

Farage Slams Eurozone As Complete Economic Disaster

"The air is thick with denial in this chamber," is how UKIP's Nigel Farage begins his truthiness rant at the most recent European Council meeting. Reflecting on the Italian election and overwhelming success of 'Eurosceptic' political parties, Farage barks that it "is absolutely clear that Eurozone membership is completely incompatible with nation-state democracy." The complete denial (and "unutterable drivel") about the Eurozone crisis incenses him as he says "you'd think listening to everyone this morning that it's over." The real problem, he explains, is that they won't face up to the reality that "You are not facing up to the consequences for what you've done," as he tries to make the technocrats comprehend, "the Eurozone has been a complete economic disaster," because of the Euro - and the disaster is still coming down the tracks."

Jim Sinclair - QE to Infinity is the Only Tool They Have

"When I said, QE to infinity a long time before anybody else got that idea into their mind, I did it because there was only one tool in any central banks’ tool box that could create infinite amounts of money in a computer instant. And that would logically indicate that if what I expected to happen happened, then QE would be used, and ‘to infinity’ means until it no longer functions.

Infinity is only one control of QE and that’s the dollar in US activity. So as long as the dollar, because of currency wars, can remain even as a mirror image, looking not so bad, QE can continue to any amount.”

Jim Sinclair - We Are Witnessing A Historic Low In Gold

“Historically we are at an extreme low. But more so than that, when you are short you have a price objective. If you are a government you have a price objective. That price objective being reached might change the pattern of your trading.

The pattern of what’s taking place in this down market is absolutely clear: At periods every day like clockwork, when the lowest volume of trading historically takes place, the largest amount of offerings have come into the marketplace (for gold), creating a drubbing, a down (move).

Every time there is a major move in a market there will be hangers on, and they are the ones that tend to lose on both sides...."
