Where is the fire?

In the browned-out and poop-stained pin striped trousers of central bankers around the globe who have seen their combined injection of 1/3 of trillion dollars worth of cash into the credit markets do zip, nada, zero.

Not even the central bankers can control this thing. And its just the beginning.

You'll notice that the big American banks are doing fine, the very smart money, Buffet, Soros, etc., are buying them with gusto and abandon. These banks are well capitalized, and will survive because if anyone is going to be saved by the Fed, it is them. They are as vital to us as the Navy.

You are going to trade

Yen ---> gold

or

Yen ---> other hard asset (oil?) ---> gold

or

Yen ---> Swiss franc ---> gold

Look at what some of the Canroys are paying.

With Hurricanes coming, some possible Iran action, and continuing depletion, the energy stop over maybe be useful.

Yen - benefits from deflation

Gold - benefits from inflation, war

Energy - benefits from growth, depletion, war, and inflation
