- SOMETHING IS CHANGING
SINCE 1971.KNOW WHY IS GOLD STARTING TO CONSOLIDATE?
- THE DEEP
STATE FEDERAL - POTUS IS NOW WAGING
GUERRILA WAR WITH THE MEANS UNDER HIS
POWER AND - OBVIOUSLY ROUND-THE-CLOCK RULE CHANGES IS DESTRUCTIVE TO ANY ECONOMY. NOW, WAIT A MINUTE, THIS IS NOT A REAL ECONOMY. IT IS A PAPER PONZI ECONOMY AND NOT A MARKET ECONOMY. IT MUST BE DESTROYED, BUT CANNOT BE DESTROYED BY INSTITUTIONAL MEANS. THE FED IS FAR TOO POWERFUL. IT HAS HAD THE MONOPOLY OF IT’S OWN BEAR-BULL TRIGGER. NOW THE TREASURY UNDER POTUS HAS COME
- UP WITH IT’S OWN BEAR-BULL
TRIGGER IN THE FORM OF TRADE WARS, SANCTIONS, BOYCOTTS, EMBARGOES AND
SIEGE.
- THE TREASURY UNDER
POTUS CAN CAUSE CHAOS AND EXTREME VOLATILITY IN THE BOND (DEBT), BENCHMARK
RATE (YIELD), STOCK MARKETS, COMMODITIES AND BULLION.
- RUNAWAY VOLATILITY
WILL DEFINITELY NEED A SAFE HEAVEN AWAY FROM VOLATILITY, AND THAT SAFE HAVEN
WILL BE GOLD AND CRYPTOS, BY FORCE OF CIRCUMSTANCE.
- GOLD AND CRYPTOS BEGIN
TO GAIN GROUND AT THE COST OF THE PAPER PONZI CURRENCIES ON THE WAY TO
EXTINCTION.
- WORLD DEBT NOW
SURPASSES US$300-TRILLION AND THAT’S OVER A MILLION TONS OF GOLD. IF THE
PONZI MARKETS CRASH, THERE WON’T BE ENOUGH GOLD FOR A BAIL OUT INTO SAFE
MARKET ECONOMY.
- THE WAY OUT IS TO
CRASH THE EXCHANGE RATES OF OVER 200-PONZI CURRENCIES TO ABOUT AN EXCHANGE
RATE OF 200,000-TONS.
- THIS WAY, THIS SMALL
AMOUNT OF GOLD WILL OUT PERFORM THE DEBT OF MOST COUNTRIES, ESPECIALLY THE
US, EU, JAPAN AND CHINA. AND MOST IMPORTANT, MARKET ECONOMY WILL BE
RESTORED.
Gold Prices Will Keep Rising Because Crash Conditions Are Becoming Obvious
Authored by Brandon Smith, originally published at Birch Gold Group,
The price movements of precious metals are difficult for some people to understand. In the world of equities, investors are mesmerized by tickers day in and day out, and market movements occur minute by minute. This realm of investment teaches people to shorten their memories, their attention spans and their patience. In the world of gold and silver, however, investors buy and sell according to cycles that last years – oftentimes decades. It is the complete antithesis to stocks.
This is why gold catches a lot of ignorant criticism at times. The “barbaric relic” does not behave the way day traders want it to behave. It sleeps, they ignore it or laugh at it, and then it explodes. It is not surprising that your average stock market player is usually caught completely off guard when an economic crisis hits Main Street, while the average gold investor already saw the event coming many months in advance. The gold mentality lends itself to caution, observation and historical relevance. The stock market mentality lends itself to carelessness and the denial of history.
I would acknowledge here that there is plenty of evidence of paper market manipulation of gold and silver to the downside by major banks like JP Morgan. Any investor in metals should take this into account. However, it is also important to realize that in moments of economic uncertainty, the physical market can and does overtake paper manipulation, and prices rise anyway. This is exactly what happened in the lead up to the 2008 crash, and it’s happening again today.
Gold and silver have had an exciting run in the past couple of months, and this is taking place exactly because precious metals are doing what they are supposed to do – act as a hedge against economic instability. This is where I see a disconnect in the mainstream media and the stock market pundits in their explanations for the gold rally since July.
The economic media and some in the alternative media expected gold to take a dive in July. Why? Because they also had high expectations for Fed Chair Jerome Powell to massage the markets with an ample interest rate cut and promises of stimulus measures in the near future. This did not happen. Instead, market investors were shocked to hear Powell deny any need for renewed quantitative easing (QE) and they were greeted with a marginal 0.25% cut in rates with no guarantees that any more cuts were on the way.
In August, this message was reiterated at the annual Fed Jackson Hole meeting, and multiple Fed officials indicated that the central bank has no intention of introducing new stimulus, and that aggressive rate cuts are unlikely.
Currently, the Fed continues to hold rates near their “neutral rate of inflation”, they are still cutting assets from their balance sheet despite claims that they would be stopping early, and the Fed funds rate is currently the single HIGHEST rate of all central bank rates in the developed world. Global dollar liquidity is drying up and mainstream analysts are practically begging the central bank to reintroduce stimulus measures.
The Fed also continues to make the false claim that US economic growth is “strong” and that a recovery is still underway, despite the fact that the yield curve has flattened to levels not seen in over a decade, housing sales are falling, auto sales are falling, retailers are expecting store closures of over 12,000 outlets this year, US freight is grinding to a halt, US manufacturing PMI is the weakest it has been since 2009, etc. Some of the Fed’s own data is showing a recessionary storm is about to make landfall, despite all their statistical rigging, and yet they ignore it completely and repeat the mantra that “all is well”.
This should not surprise anyone; this is what the Fed always does. They create massive debt bubbles, then tighten policy conditions causing the bubbles to implode. They then lie about the economic threat until the crash is about to cripple the average citizen. Then, they claim “no one could have seen this coming”.
As I have been predicting for the past few years, the Fed is keeping liquidity tight right up until crash conditions become obvious to the public. Talk of recession is now being taken a bit more seriously in the mainstream, and the only thing left to prop up economic optimism is the US consumer and his debt burden, which is growing far beyond the historic highs seen during the crash of 2008. Stock markets are being propped up by corporate stock buybacks, but for how long? How long can these companies pour capital into their own stocks to fight a losing battle while the Fed reduces the cash flow?
In the wake of the Fed’s “disappointment”, and their refusal to promise investors that the old fiat punch bowl will return, the US dollar index spiked in July in response and overall has continued to climb. The vast majority of analysts claimed that gold prices would plummet. Instead, they accelerated.
As I predicted in my article ‘Gold Will Rise Even If The Fed Doesn’t Cut Interest Rates’, the gold price found wings in July and August. This matches exactly with what happened in 2006-2007. As the Fed raised interest rates and tightened liquidity, the dollar index jumped but gold prices still almost doubled in the same time frame. This is because the dollar index does not always dictate the price of gold. Sometimes, gold decouples from the dollar and rises according to market instability. When a crisis is near, precious metals are heavily bought. The dollar becomes a secondary issue.

I believe that this trend will continue. Currently, the trade war has entered a new phase with the latest round of tariffs on both the US and Chinese sides. I said it over a year and a half ago and I’ll say it again – the trade war is not going to end until the crash runs its course. It is a highly useful distraction away from the central bankers and their controlled demolition of the Everything Bubble.
The Fed’s policy decisions seem to be having little negative effect on metals prices going into autumn, and there doesn’t seem to be any indication that they plan to dramatically alter their current course of little to no rate reductions and no new stimulus. While some people have noted the Fed has made some purchases of US treasuries in recent weeks, this does NOT represent true QE, as the Fed's balance sheet continues to decline anyway as assets are cut.
As I warned in July, some alternative economists have been jumping the gun by predicting the Fed would rush headlong into QE4, and they do this because they have a bias in favor of a rising gold price. But these people need to realize that gold can and will climb in value even if the Fed does not launch stimulus measures.
For now, I predict that prices will remain relatively steady with a slight uptrend for perhaps another month or two, until October or November. The next most obvious catalyst event would be the Brexit. If the Brexit decision culminates in a ‘No Deal’ exit from the EU (as I believe it eventually will), then expect metals prices to skyrocket from that point on. I do not believe the recent Tory "rebellion" has changed the dynamic enough to stop the Brexit from happening.
There are some downside risks in the next month, but these will be temporary. The US/China meeting in October could become yet another circus in which a “deal” is announced but nothing tangible in terms of a real agreement is ever produced. This could cause a short term drop in gold. Also, aggressive monetary devaluation by multiple nations, though not very likely at this time, could cause enough of a reactionary jump in the dollar index to slow gold’s ascent.
The Fed meeting in September is widely expected to end with another interest rate cut. Every piece of evidence and Fed statement so far hints that the central bank will not cut dramatically, or, may not cut at all. If this is the case, then gold will spike again this month and in October. If the Fed does cut dramatically, expect a short term inflow of capital into equities and away from precious metals, then a rebound into late fall and early winter. A dramatic cut by the Fed would be an open admission that a recession is upon us, and though it would take some time for markets to digest, they will eventually come to the conclusion that a downturn is taking place and metals are one of the best options for protecting their savings.
For now, my timeline is for an uptrend within the next month or two. There is no end in sight to the flow of negative incoming data. The Fed is clearly not going to intervene, at least not until the situation becomes so horrendous that average people start demanding a response. Brexit is looking more and more volatile every day, and no doubt it will be blamed for economic tremors in the EU, just as the trade war will be blamed for the recession in the US. These are the “perfect storms” that drive gold to record highs. A repeat of gold’s performance during the 2008 crash is certainly possible. In fact, I think the next rally in metals will far surpass the 2008 event.

Schiff: The Only Winners Will Be The People Who Bought Gold And Silver
Gold has been on a three-day skid, but as Fox Business anchor
Over the last three months, gold is up about 12% and has hit six-and-a-half year highs in recent weeks.
Peter Schiff joined Claman, along with, Frank Holmes and Imaru Cassanova on The Claman Countdown to talk about the yellow metal.
Holmes started out the segment saying that recession fears are driving central bank easy monetary policy and that’s good for gold.
Each month we’re seeing more and more governments offering you a negative real rate of return on your money and that automatically makes gold much more attractive. And I don’t think it’s ending yet.”
In June, it broke out... The driver there was the Fed. What is the Fed signaling when they are shifting, when they are going from tightening to? They’re saying we too are worried about the US economy. And investors responded to that — to the higher risk of a recession in the US.” cutting
The dollar is actually very weak. People have been looking at the dollar versus other fiat currencies. But if you look at the dollar’s decline against gold, that really tells you that we have a weak dollar, not a strong dollar, and I think it’s going to get a lot weaker. And I think foreign central banks are starting to position for the dollar losing its reserve currency status. And it’s going to lose that status not to another currency, but to real money, to gold. And that’s why central banks are buying. They’re going to keep buying, and individuals should be buying as well.”
Holmes pointed out that even if the trade war ends, there are still a lot of negatives in the economy and it will take a while for it to turn. Meanwhile, central banks are cutting rates in an expanding economy.
We’re talking setting new all-time highs.”
Peter said we’re going into recession regardless of what happens with the trade talks.
The Fed is taking rates down to zero, so that’s what’s going to happen.”
Peter pointed out that gold was under $300 in 2001. It moved up to $1,900 in 2011 when people were rightly concerned about the monetary mistakes that the Fed was making.
Well, then people believed the Fed, that everything was going to work out, that they could unwind their balance sheet and normalize interest rates, and gold pulled back to just over $1,000. It’s now risen 50% off those lows because people are just starting to figure out that none of these problems were solved. In fact, the Fed has screwed up to a greater degree than even I imagined back in 2011. They’ve done a lot of damage to the economy and the gold price is headed a lot higher. The initial reaction was correct. The QE and zero percent interest rates were a big mistake and the only winner there is going to be the people who bought gold and silver.”

“What it is is an invention, and I think it should be referred to as an invention rather than all the other things. It’s a, you know, what it really is […] It’s a truth machine....] It’s a way to eradicate all fraud or lying by human beings.” [

He also added:
“Could a company even develop that? You know, maybe Satoshi realized it can only be developed slowly over time in a decentralized way.”
