Whenever anything “monetary” is presented to these supposedly top world leaders, they all refer the question to their Central Bankers. These, of course, are completely against anything that will devolve real power to the population, real protection for individuals and their families. They are against all forms of SAVINGS; their whole interest lies in promoting more DEBT, and NOT more savings. They one and all consider that savings are simply a drag on GROWTH, and they want people to spend, not to save. And the silver coin promotes savings, which in fact are the fountainhead of all prosperity.<br /><br />Mr. Salinas, why is it important to go back to sound money (gold and silver)? You know, “modern” economist like Nouriel Roubini call gold a “barbarous relic” and others name silver the “poor-man´s gold”.<br />Mr. Barba, everything in our modern world is a lie. Look wherever you will, and you will find lies. Our civilization is living on borrowed time, because you cannot deal with Reality and the problem of finding sustenance for life in Fiction or Lies; you have to deal with Reality by means of Truth, and not by Lies. If we go on pretending that we can avoid Reality by means of Lies, we are going to end up in a barbarous state. <br />The world is attempting to live by means of the great lie of fiat money. It will not work. You deal with Reality by means of Truth; Truth is thinking that checks with Reality. Gold is money, and if we refuse to face that fact, we are lying.<br /><br />http://inteligenciafinancieraglobal.blogspot.mx/2014/01/billionaire-hugo-salinas-price.htmlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7982981413278241287.post-8527873834294430292014-01-24T07:20:11.988-07:002014-01-24T07:20:11.988-07:00http://dealbook.nytimes.com/2014/01/23/fined-billi...http://dealbook.nytimes.com/2014/01/23/fined-billions-bank-approves-raise-for-chief/?_php=true&_type=blogs&_r=0#!<br />When racketeering is legalized in the form of "banking" why would anyone trust fiat?

As for your question re: the potential buyer, They'd have to wait 7 years for the Fed to deliver, right? More to the point, who would buy gold stored at the Fed vault expecting to get delivery after the whole world knows about Germany?

It’s also provided a useful test-run of a digital system that can now be adopted universally by almost any pre-existing value system.<br /><br />This is important because, in the current economic climate, the introduction of a cashless society empowers central banks greatly. A cashless society, after all, not only makes things like negative interest rates possible, it transfers absolute control of the money supply to the central bank, mostly by turning it into a universal banker that competes directly with private banks for public deposits. All digital deposits become base money.<br /><br />Consequently, anyone who believes Bitcoin is a threat to fiat currency misunderstands the economic context. Above all, they fail to understand that had central banks had the means to deploy e-money earlier on, the crisis could have been much more successfully dealt with.<br /><br />http://www.nakedcapitalism.com/2014/01/bitcoin-plays-hands-central-bankers-will-facilitate-use-negative-interest-rates.html<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7982981413278241287.post-18473084584435566232014-01-23T07:47:02.562-07:002014-01-23T07:47:02.562-07:00Great post Dave, thanks.

This game ends when physical gold (in size) cannot be found for delivery. I disagree with you on the German gold, however, I think we will just have to wait and see how this plays out.

Underwriters...The Financial Media Has Let You Down<br /><br />Underwriters are obliged to follow securities laws. They must perform due diligence, and make honest disclosures. Among other things, they cannot conceal illegal conduct, affirm false representations or allow them to go unchallenged, distribute materially misleading information, fail to disclose red flags, or fail to disclose suspicions of potential fraud.<br /><br />Unfortunately, regulators connected to the banking system have looked the other way, and the past and current Washington administrations have turned a blind eye to fraud. Most of the remedies have come from civil litigation.<br /><br />Negligence by the SEC, failure to investigate, failure to initiate criminal prosecutions, ridicule from those directly and indirectly benefiting from malfeasance, snark from so-called reporters on on so-called business television, apologias from on-the-payroll academics: none of these things change the obligation of underwriters to obey the law.<br /><br />http://www.tavakolistructuredfinance.com/2009/07/cnbc-and-fox-business/<br /><br />thank god for blogs like this one:)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7982981413278241287.post-77154615970524935252014-01-23T06:13:10.710-07:002014-01-23T06:13:10.710-07:00Here's why: they wouldn't be able to find...Here's why: they wouldn't be able to find 300 tonnes at a reasonable unless they wanted to disrupt the flow being made available to China.

There would be some transaction costs and such a large buyer could drive the price up a bit (but not too much given how China is purchasing far more) even with the manipulation. At the end of the day, 1200 tonnes in Bonn is worth far more than an IOU for 1500 at the Fed's NY vault!

Historically, when an investor takes delivery of gold via futures contracts or LBMA forwards, the more than likely opt to leave that gold in the Comex or LBMA vaults rather have the bars delivered from the vaults to him. This behavioral pattern enables the bank to use the bars being "safekept" in client accounts for its own purposes. However, there's always the risk that the owner of the bars might eventually ask for delivery. That is what is happening now.

A bank will "rehypothecate" that asset when it turns around and pledges it as collateral in another part of its business.<br /><br />Let's say you are a wealthy dude with an investment account at JP Morgan. As part of your portfolio you are invested in bullion that JP Morgan safekeeps. It is likely that you signed a "blanket" margin agreement which is secured by your assets, including the gold. JPM then turns around and leases that gold out or uses it to meet delivery requirements.<br /><br />Historically wealthy dudes would buy gold and keep it at the bank and then sell it, without ever seeing it or taking possession. JPM could use that gold for its own purposes without much risk that the wealthy dude would ever ask for it be delivered.Dave in Denverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03016238915167131989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7982981413278241287.post-38325586583933184012014-01-22T21:26:32.052-07:002014-01-22T21:26:32.052-07:00He's either a complete idiot or he's a sle...He's either a complete idiot or he's a sleazy schill for the entities manipulating gold.

Only one part in this piece made not sense to me.<br /><br />''The difference is crucial because paper gold contracts can be printed in unlimited quantities and dumped on the market. But the seller of real gold takes the risk that his buyer on the other side might demand delivery of the physical gold.''<br /><br />If u ask me, one sells real gold or not. To me, the seller of real gold sells real gold, not face the '' the other side might demand delivery'' risk as you put it (my humble opinion). <br /><br />If I recall well, shanghai is 60ish% delivery (and non of the delivered bars come back in by rule...... ofc there is fraud.....). Comex 2-3%?<br /><br />I notice the premiums between China and Comex are around $16 an ounce. You know how and if, physical arbing becomes profitable? Or is that why the Chinese bought the JPM vaults?
