I have read from scmp.com that about U.S.$50 billion would be needed. S. Korea has too much pride. At first S. Korea did not want to be bailed out by the IMF but circumstances compel it to seek help from the IMF. It is initially asking for U.S.$20 billion to see just how far it will go and then decide on how much more is needed.

What will bailouts do for gold? In the near term? Long term? Too bad that S. Korea, unlike Japan, has no more U.S. bond assets to draw from to defend its own currency.

In 1990, the exchange rate was about 745 won to U.S.$1.00. Now it is >1050 won to U.S.$1.00. Looks grim! Yea, what will that do for gold?

Comments, anyone?
