A Tidal Wave of Gold Repatriations Could be Unleashed

 

 

A tidal wave of gold repatriations may have begun. As speculated in my last post, I raised a concern that should be shared with all western Central bankers…a widespread flood of countries demanding their gold back to their home soils.

This notion sounds logical to any sane individual, but to a central banker who is gold negative, this is their worst nightmare. To understand why, you need to step back and see the big picture, which shows the stark reality of how rare gold truly is and how little of it remains in western vaults, despite what the mainstream media would have you believe.

First it was Germany, then it was the Dutch. Soon it could be Switzerland depending on the results of their gold repatriation referendum, which central bankers are nervously awaiting the results. Now, there is France.

Mike Maloney: The Dollar As We Know It Will Be Gone Within 6 Years

 

Based on historical patterns and the alarming state of our current monetary system, Mike believes the fiat US dollar is in its last years as a viable currency. He sees its replacement as inevitable in the near term — as in by or before the end of the decade:

All of this is converging with the crazy experiments the Federal Reserve has done.

I absolutely believe that there are economic consequences to this that are inescapable. The Fed is not just in a box; a trap has been set. And before the end of this decade, if there is still a US Dollar around it will not be this US Dollar. It will be a dollar that is tied to a very different monetary system.

At the beginning of 2014, Detroit may be bankrupt, but they’re cheering the five-year-old U.S. auto bailout in Italy. That’s because after being the beneficiary of billions in U.S. taxpayer largesse, Fiat, the leading Italian auto company, is going to buy its final stake in Chrysler from that other big bailout recipient, the United Auto Workers (UAW).

“Chrysler’s Now Fully an Italian Auto Company,” reads the Time magazine online headline. But wait a minute! Wasn’t the bailout supposed to be about saving the American auto industry?
