Participant“… Gold jewelry market “close to dead” compared to a year earlier, and there is no real physical buying outside of investment demand… Jewelry buying typically accounts for around 60 percent of global gold demand.” (Reuters, September 18)
let’s talk about the COMEX gold market
they currently claim to have 9.248 million ounces of gold (not all of this is available for delivery) – at $1008/oz that is $9.3 billion dollars worth of gold
“In 2003, the U.S. Bond market is valued at over $20 trillion, which is $20,000,000,000,000. The measure of the money supply in U.S. banks is valued at about $8.8 trillion. The total paper money is $29 trillion.” http://silverstockreport.com/historyofmoney.htm
“The total market capitalization of all publicly traded companies in the world was US$51.2 trillion in January 2007” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Market_capitalization
now let’s take a closer look at the quote from Reuters
“there is no real physical buying outside of investment demand”
the bond market is at least $20 trillion in size – how much “investment demand” has to move from a $20 trillion dollar market into a $9.3 billion dollar market before the $9.3 billion dollar market is affected?
the stock markets worldwide are $50 trillion is size – how much “investment demand” has to move from a $50 trillion market to a $9.3 billion market before the $9.3 billion market is affected?
in case you haven’t figured it out yet, the point I am making is this: the dollar value of the gold market is TRIVIAL in comparison to all of the other asset markets – it only takes a little “investment demand” shift into gold before the gold price is affected significantly
you don’t think $5000/oz gold is possible? how much of the $70 trillion in stocks and bonds has to shift into gold before $5000/oz is reached (and surpassed)?
the silver market is even more exciting – current silver stocks on the COMEX are less than $2 billion worth (not all deliverable) – that’s right, for $2 billion you can corner the silver market – how much money has to shift out of stocks and bonds before a $2 billion dollar market goes ballistic?
from Reuters again: “Jewelry buying typically accounts for around 60 percent of global gold demand”
how many of you would describe our current times as being “typical”?

Participant“Might makes right (military or otherwise), even to validate a bankrupt federal reserve promissory.”
You’re basically suggesting that the US sell ‘insurance’ to our foreign creditors to ensure they don’t get smoked in a nuclear holocaust?
“OK, China, keep buying our bonds or kiss Shanghai goodbye”
Isn’t that like the mafia and other gangs who sell ‘fire insurance’ to local business keepers?
How long do you think that would last?
Is that your idea of a sustainable future?
Ever studied the history of empires on this planet? (notice that it is history because all empires eventually collapse)
Are you aware of how dependent the US has become on imports to maintain the current standard of living?
Not only would we have to threaten the countries that support us financially, we would have to threaten all of the countries we import real goods from – essentially a ‘US against the world’ scenario – ever studied the history of empires on this planet?
Did you notice this week that China is banning the export of rare earth metals? Realize that they have 90% of the currently known deposits of these metals? Any idea of how these metals support your current lifestyle?
Are you gonna nuke China because they won’t export something you are dependent on? Invade them and take it?
Are you really just a one-trick-pony?
“I’ve got 5000 nukes so f*ck the rest of the world!”
Basically, a “my dick is bigger than your dick” approach to world diplomacy
Works great until Lorena Bobbit comes along!
