Controlling the Beginning Stages of Hyperinflation by Manipulating the Precious Metals

The tactic by the Fed and Central Banks is to inflate the stock markets while manipulating the price of gold and silver lower.  This achieves two goals: 1) it reassures the public’s faith by pumping up stock prices while the economic indicators continue to deteriorate and 2) it elevates the dollar while it destroys market sentiment in the precious metals.

So far, the strategy has worked.  Some of the toughest gold and silver bugs are becoming extremely frustrated and downright bearish.  You can’t blame them as this is typical human psychology.   Although, extremes and manipulations never last forever and at some point in time they reverse.

If we look at the next series of charts, we can see just how extreme the gold & silver markets have become.  In typical inflation-hyperinflations, stock and commodity asset prices rise together.  However, since the Fed announcement of Q3, only certain asset classes have risen — mainly stocks, real estate and to a lesser extent, bonds.

THE GLOBAL FLIGHT FROM PAPER TO BULLION: SGT Report UNBOUND w/ Jeff Nielson

Jeff Nielson from Bullion Bulls Canada joins SGT to discuss the global flight out of paper gold and silver and into PHYSICAL bullion. We also talk about the new CBC documentary “The Monarchs of Money” – and how it attempts to elevate the Central Banksters to benevolent servants of the financial markets, even as it shares some truth. We wrap things up with a conversation about deflation VS inflation VS hyperinflation — Jeff says, without a single additional printed dollar, the US and all major countries on earth could find themselves in a state of hyperinflation the minute the Banksters unleash the TRILLIONS already printed.

Jim Willie: Bank Runs & Bullion Bank Runs to Climax Soon in the US!

By Jim Willie, GoldenJackass.com

The Western nations really truly sincerely need a wake-up call on reality, and it is coming as a paradigm shift with shock waves.
When the coming dust clears, the evidence is plain that the change to be seen will be dead banks in dissolution with private bank accounts vacated. In other words, razed leveled banks with no functioning operating offices, and bank accounts showing zero balances. The consequence is ugly and powerful, lost client trust in the banking institutions.

Faith is a key ingredient to stable systems
. The US account holders will be treated with stock shares in conversion for the dead banks, whose value will converge quickly to zero. Same effect, lost accounts. Expect soon the result to be a climax with bank runs.The bank runs will coincide with bullion bank runs, the fast removal of gold held in inventory vaults at the bullion banks.

Jim Rickards: Gold to $4,000 if Deflation Wins

Jim RickardsTangent Capital’s Jim Rickards was on CNBC’s Fast Money today, discussing gold in the wake of the recent smash to $1320.
Rickards called the smash a transition from weak hands at the COMEX to strong hands in China and Russia (& physical buyers across the world).
Rickards stated that the trend is up from here, although gold is likely to trade sideways for a majority of the year before climbing in Q4.
Rickards informed the CNBC shills that gold does well in periods of either inflation or deflation, and that The Fed will do everything they can. When they can’t win the battle against deflation, they devalue the currency against gold ’cause gold’s the only thing that can’t fight back.
The Currency Wars author states that If the Fed wins we’ll get inflation and gold will go up.  If deflation prevails, we’ll wake up one morning and gold will be (revalued to) $4,000/oz.

Jim Willie: The Gold Climax Event

Jim Willie goldBy Jim Willie, GoldenJackass.com

The USFed stated publicly in early 2009 their desire to pursue an Exit Strategy. The Jackass on repeated occasions over three years ago refuted and contradicted their claimed path on monetary policy restoration to normalcy.
There is an Exit Strategy, but it is evident in the East. The Eastern nations are assembling a Eurasian Trade Zone and a BRICS central bank (aka Development Fund) with which they will exit the USDollar global reserve standard. In doing so, they will not require to fill their banking systems any longer with toxic USTBonds.
The end of the USDollar as global reserve is near, visible in tangible form

Intelligence Insider: Obama Administration Agenda to “Kill U.S Dollar”

200428723-001“We’re just going to kill the dollar.”
This week, I had a series of very sobering discussions with my highly-placed source within the intelligence world. The information he provided hit me like a proverbial tons of bricks. It connects everything we are seeing play out across the world, from the economic problems in Europe to the U.S. DHS ammunition acquisition orders and even the “gun control” debate.  If you’re like me, you’re looking for clarity, context and focus with regard to all of the events we’re constantly hearing about but seem to lack legitimate explanation. I believe this report will provide the context and clarity we are all seeking, but I must warn you that the picture is not pretty. [Read more...]

Can the Fed Increase Velocity Without Losing Control? (Hyperinflation)

What we have been through over the last 6 months in precious metals has been entirely a “Wag the Dog” production made to herd the sheeple back in line.  The Fed is actively trying to get people to “spend” their money.  Spend it on “stuff”, spend it on stocks, spend it on real estate…SPEND IT on anything…except Gold or it’s little sister Silver.  They absolutely must get velocity turning higher because they cannot create new money as fast as it’s going into hiding and being destroyed.  The problem as I mentioned is that once velocity actually does turn upward, they may (will) have a situation where a “run” OUT of the Dollar begins which cannot be stopped.  This is hyperinflation.

JS Kim: How to Spot Counterfeit Money? Just Look in Your Wallet

The global financial system is crumbling right before our very eyes because criminal bankers have imposed a fraudulent, rubbish fractional reserve banking and monetary system upon us that is the world’s largest criminal cartel of thievery and immorality.

Jim Willie: US Economy Will Implode As Dollar Collapses!

dollar collapseJim Willie of GoldenJackass.com says powerful forces around the globe are working to do away with trading in U.S. dollars because of massive money printing by the Fed.
Dr. Willie says, “The world makes a reaction, and what they have done is create, slowly but surely, a U.S. dollar alternative for trade.” Dr. Willie’s sources say precious metals will be used to back a new currency and predicts, “The gold price will be $7,500 to $8,000, and silver will be between $150 and $250 per ounce.” This will be a disaster for U.S. Treasuries, and Jim Willie says, “All these Treasury Bonds will be sent back to the United States where they can choke U.S. bankers . . . they cannot refuse them.” Dr. Willie predicts “the economy will implode,” and he says, “I don’t believe we’re going to see garden variety powerful inflation. I believe, instead, we’re going to get large widespread cut-off of supply chains” as foreigners simply stop accepting the dollar. As far as dollar assets inside the U.S., expect widespread confiscation. Dr. Willie contends, “When the losses from the debt write-downs come, I see tremendous national wealth lost because private accounts are really just bank assets.” Join Greg Hunter as he goes One-on-One with Jim Willie.

Kyle Bass On ¥1 Quadrillion in Debt: The Japanese Zone of Insolvency-They’re Finished!

Kyle Bass JapanFor those unable to attend the Initiative on Global Markets conference in March, legendary fund manager Kyle Bass gave a shocking and eye-opening 48 minute presentation on Japanese debt, and how the ¥ will be the first currency to crash and burn in the rapidly escalating global currency war:  

The Japanese interest expenditure is nearly ¥11 Trillion.  To put that in perspective, their tax revenues are ¥43 Trillion.  Japan is spending 1/4 of their tax revenue on interest alone today, with interest rates at zero (5 year bonds are at 17 basis points). 
This is the zone of insolvency!  There is no looking back!  If Abe and Kuroda really achieve some sort of inflationary outcome, and the swaps move, they’re finished.  Every 100 basis point move in cost of capital costs Japan ¥11 Trillion.  A 200 basis point move has their debt service exceeding central government tax revenue! Those wishing for inflation do not know what they wish for!

Bass’ full MUST, MUST WATCH presentation on Japanese & global debt markets is below: [Read more...]

Congress Triggers Early Stages of Hyperinflation-John Williams

hyperinflationEconomist John Williams says don’t be fooled by the new highs on the Dow. Williams contends, “The economy is still in serious trouble. The banking system is still in serious trouble. The budget deficit is exploding out of control.Williams thinks the ongoing banking crisis in Cyprus has global implications. Williams says, “You have a precedence set in Cyprus that they can seize the funds. They will not guarantee all deposits. If that’s the case, you may have a much worse crisis than you had back in 2008.” Williams adds, “The big problem is the government is insolvent in the long term.” Williams says the U.S. dollar could start selling off in May because of a deadlock in Congress on the budget. Williams predicts, “The global markets are looking for the U.S. to address its long term sovereign solvency issues. That’s not going to happen. . . . In response, it’s going to be off to the races with a dollar sell-off. That could be the trigger for the early stages of hyperinflation.” Join Greg Hunter as he goes One-on-One with John Williams.

Tent About to Come Down on US Dollar Reserve Status

usdollar collapseSubmitted by Bill Holter:

Australia recently announced a deal struck with China where they will trade and settle in local currencies WITHOUT the use of Dollars.  This “type” of deal is now becoming more common as the writing on wall for all to see is that no one wants to be “stuck” with Dollars.  This poses a problem, a big problem for the U.S. as demand for Dollars is falling of a cliff at the same time supply (by necessity) has exploded.  This situation of course was evidenced last year as the Fed was “forced” to buy nearly 70% of Treasury issuance…because there were no other buyers.  In a sense this is becoming a self sustaining negative feedback circle where the Fed must purchase a larger percentage of issuance …because investors (trading blocs) see the over supply and reduce purchases further.

There is one last leg left to the chair that should it break, the whole tent will come down. [Read more...]

Imagine that 2 weeks ago you were a Cypriot and faced losing some or all of your bank balances, what would you have thought?  I ask you this question because chances are…you are not a Cypriot and you haven’t had your life savings “locked up”…yet.  You see, whether you know it or want to believe it, we will “all be Cypriots” sooner or later.  Pooh pooh me, stick your head in the sand or send me nasty e-mails, MATHEMATICALLY the entire world WILL become Cyprus sooner or later.  Mathematically we are on a crash course with a global debt/currency crisis of epic proportions.  [Read more...]
