There is such a large imbalance between the prices things are at and what they are really worth that it can only be resolved by

1) A large implosion of stock prices, bankruptcies and generally flushing of the system, or

2) A very long period of sideways movement in which the imbalances are brought into balance

A sustained rise in gold prices and interest rates would trigger 1) and it may be that the Bank of England would be the first to go down, followed by Goldman, JP Morgan and the whole gang. So of course they are going to fight to the death to try and keep a lid on it. I'm not sure the US has enough extra cash laying around to bail all these guys out right now.
