Gold's 24 percent surge this year to a record is proving no deterrent to George Soros, John Paulson and Paul Touradji, whose investments signal more gains for the longest winning streak in at least nine decades.

Securities and Exchange Commission filings this month by Soros Fund Management LLC, Paulson & Co. and Touradji Capital Management LP listed investments in gold as their biggest holdings. Exchange-traded products own 2,088 metric tons, equal to nine years of U.S. mine supply, data compiled by Bloomberg show. Precious metals will produce the best commodity returns in the next year, Goldman Sachs Group Inc. said in a Nov. 9 report.

Monsanto? I'd never invest in Monsanto, we all want to make money but you have to draw the line somewhere, any light research into Monsanto reveals what they are about, I hope I live to see that particular company go the way of Enron.

Here Vince claims all metal ETFs are backed by with the metals, I'm not inclined to be so sure , some might be but not all of them, I have serious reservations about SLV, some of the financial institutions offering these funds are not exactly the trustworthy. Fraud is endemic in this sector.

The Washington Post Runs An Article Entitled "Five Myths About The Federal Reserve" Authored By An Economist Linked To The Rothschilds


The American Dream
Nov 17, 2010

There have been so many attacks on the Federal Reserve recently that the mainstream media now feels almost forced to try to defend their actions. The most blatant example of this recently was an article in the Washington Post entitled "Five Myths About The Federal Reserve". The article was authored by Greg Ip, the U.S. economics editor of The Economist. According to Wikipedia, the Rothschild banking family is a partial owner of the firm that operates The Economist. You would have thought that they would have gotten someone a whole lot less obvious to produce this propaganda piece, but apparently they did not think anyone would notice. Of course an economics editor of The Economist is going to defend the Federal Reserve. He would be fired if he didn't. The Economist is well known to be a mouthpiece for the international central banking establishment. But what is really sad is how poor a job Greg Ip did in defending the Fed. If these are the best intellectual arguments they can come up with then they are in huge trouble.

According to this chart the US$ is sitting close to a fairly strong support level.
If it drops below we will see fireworks in the precious metals, if it bounces, metals ought to pull back. I hate to say it but I think the latter is more likely.
I reckon the green 'average' line is the absolute maximum the $ could bounce to, though I very much doubt it can even make it that far.



By The Truest Measure, The US Dollar Has Dropped To Its All-Time Low

This chart is arguably the best measure of the dollar's value relative to other currencies. It compares the dollar to a large basket of trade-weighted currencies, and it is adjusted for relative inflation differentials. This eliminates the distortions which come from, for example, a large nominal rise in the dollar against a currency that is suffering from very high inflation: if the dollar's rise offsets the effects of that currency's inflation, then the dollar has not really risen at all. Similarly, it corrects for large depreciations of the dollar relative to currencies (in particular the yen) that have enjoyed lower rates of inflation than the U.S.

Hi omega09, yes it's absolutely insane blaming the tea party for the mistakes of the FED, yet this is what they will do, blame anyone or anything but the people who are really responsible.

You don't even have to get beyond the title of the (hit) piece to spot the first big lie, it's the Ron Paul tea party that is the real thing, these late arrivals like Palin and Beck are just a neo con attempt to co opt the original movement.
A movement that the UK press wouldn't say a word about when Ron Paul was running for president, just that illustrates the uselessness of the UK press.

Europe stumbles blindly towards its 1931 moment
It is the European Central Bank that should be printing money on a mass scale to purchase government debt, not the US Federal Reserve.




London Telegraph
Nov 15, 2010

Unless the ECB takes fast and dramatic action, it risks destroying the currency it is paid to manage, and allowing a political catastrophe to unfold in Europe.

If mishandled, Ireland could all too easily become a sovereign version of Credit Anstalt – the Austrian bank that brought down the central European financial system in 1931, sent tremors through London and New York, and set off the second deeper phase of the Great Depression, the phase when politics turned ugly.

"Does the ECB understand the concept of contagion?" asked Jacques Cailloux, chief Europe economist at RBS. Three EMU countries have already been shut out of the capital markets, and footloose foreign creditors hold €2 trillion of debt securities issued by Spain, Portugal, Ireland and Greece.

"If that is not enough to worry about financial contagion, what is? The ECB's lack of action begs the question as to whether it is fulfilling its financial stability mandate," he said. That is a polite way of putting it

The Establishment Media Is Already Trying To Blame The Tea Party And Opponents Of The Federal Reserve For The Coming Economic Collapse



The American Dream
Nov 15, 2010

Why does it seem like major establishment news outlets come out with the exact same talking points so often? This time, the mainstream media in both the United States and in the UK are placing blame for an economic collapse that hasn't even happened yet on the Tea Party movement and on opponents of the Federal Reserve. Of course it is completely and totally ridiculous to even think for a moment that the Tea Party could be responsible for our current financial problems. The Tea Party is still basically brand new, and even though they gained a a number of seats in Congress during this past election, they still have far, far less power than the establishment Democrats or the establishment Republicans. The notion that the Tea Party could be responsible for plunging the entire globe into a devastating economic depression is absolutely hilarious. But that is exactly what some major mainstream media outlets are actually suggesting.

Just consider the following examples....
