great summary on CB currency debasement and gold by Grant

"Such are the times that few governments welcome a rising
exchange rate," James Grant explains. "Each of the three
principal currency blocks - dollar, euro, yen - would
welcome a falling exchange rate...Of course, the top
currencies can't all simultaneously become cheaper against
each other. They can only become cheaper against an
alternative. What would that alternative be? Constant
readers may close their eyes, because they have read the
answer here before. It is gold, an asset with the virtue of
being mute. It never complains and never explains, and it
has no central bank...It does not object if its price
appreciates..."


like all three CB's will be pumping harder than ever
and GOLD is the prime currency
it works for me, been saying it all autumn

I still maintain that Iraq is #8 on a top10 list now
the outsized trade gap, federal deficit escalation, negative shorterm real rates, differential between US and German rates, gold miner hedgebook covering, and JW staphyllococcus, EllyMae's monthly period are all much bigger and less fleeting forces powering GOLD now
