we are dumping gold at the bottom at the US Trez
and buying up bonds at the top

a declining dollar will be horrendous for US economy and financial markets
trade gap is widening
foreign economies are withering
foreign holdings are repatriating
world monetary standard is being badly shaken, soon stirred, later broken

you seem to Slide Backwards in your understanding of the Vicious Circle behind the Dollar Decline

you need fewer words and clearer comprehension of dynamics

slider...I understand your points but think now is not the time to piss in the gold punchbowl yet. This party is just getting started. We just went through the largest bull market in history (1981-1999 although some accounts differ). Likewise, we will most likely go through the largest bear market in history as well. We have different economic conditions now versus other gold bull runs. The landscape is different. There WILL be more major corporate failures. There has to be in order to wring out the excesses and complete this nasty cycle. There IS a bubble in the bond market. There MIGHT be a bubble in real estate. There is still PE compression taking place in the equity markets. Seems like gold should rocket in these conditions. The fundamental picture and technicals look great...I'm in Sinclair's and Russell's camp for now.

interesting exchange between Slider boy and Willie boy. You are BOTH correct.

Slider is right if the US can keep the foreign reserve in US game going. Willie is right otherwise.

China is the big wild card. If they diversifiy away from US dollar, things don't look good. Middle east too. IF they diversify away from dollar, it will hurt the US.
