gold should do well as the fed succeeds in bailing out its fortunate / blessed sharesholders at the cost of its other stakeholders

then, as vaporization continues, the fed will ultimately fail, and gold ought to do well in the eventual monetary reset

per script of roman empire's decline and disintegration, as opposed to the wobble of 1973-1981 or even the not-so-great depression of 1929

but the key is to realize that bet on gold is a bet on Fed being successful with the bailout effort wheresoever it may land us;

Confused by such a profound statement. Whichever way it ends, it ends up with real assets, those with no attachment to any sort of credit and print press, going up, IMHO.

Yep, previously risky assets - double short funds, gold , paper gold, gold mine, uranium mines - now have less risk than mortgages, AA rated insured debt, and large banks.

Diversity in currency and debt holding might be a good idea.
