Lorne, that was a very good find! Thanks! You are one very well read SI GPM contributor. I LOVED this line in particular from your piece...from Citi no less (snicker).... "Central banks have been forced to choose between global recession or sacrificing control of gold, and have chosen the perceived lesser of two evils," said Citigroup* in a fresh report."* Long live the "EVIL GOLD"... Isn't it interesting that "Citi" is confirming in print what we've all known...that the CB have "controlled the price of gold...." And... if ANYONE on this thread thinks that [Citi's] Saudi Prince, Al the Weed, STILL owns US$ at this point instead of a peepot full of Gold, they are in lala land! That is a CLASSIC, Lorne! Leave it up to you to find it! Tip of the cap, my friend. NICE FIND! G_T

P.S., Lorne, Another reason why I love reading stuff which you dig up which originates from the "Mother Land" is that I invariably expand my vocabulary a skoosh when I do. I found 3 unfamiliars in your article... sauve qui peut ----which I learned is French, thanks to AltaVista Babelfish translation... "condign" & "gaol" While context made 2 of the 3 an easy "translation," wordsmith that I am---sans perfect spelling that is---I love looking up vocabular which I don't recognize. And to think that I bucked in fall of '64, buying a new Webster's for Secondary School...for $17 biiiiiiiiig dollars back then. Please bookmark anymore cogent musings from Ambrose Evans- Pritchard on things economic in the colonies. But don't post their existance upon any CNBC blog, okay? They might try to hire Ambrose Evans-Pritchard!!!!.....and there would go the neighborhood. G_T
