Rothchilds have done it many times in the past few centuries. the 3rd world is industrializing and can print its own money, just like the yanks, to keep it going so it's not as if the commodity cycle is done. We are talking billions of people industrializing this time not like the tiny, in comparison, primary event that was experiened in the western nations. they can trade amongst themselves without the west. the western elites have turned from looting the 3rd world to looting their own fellow citizens. end of cycle indicator. Merrill sold $30 billion of garbage paper yesterday at 20 cents on the dollar, and they had to lend the buyer the money to get the deal done. You have to ask yourself just what else the banks are hiding. The real bad stuff they hold in "unregulated markets' (like there is any real regulation anymore) has yet to be dealt with. Just don't naked short them and the other 20 or so "chosen" financials because that is now double illegal according to new SEC rules. You ever see such desperation? So who sold their gold stocks this am as they plunged below support and stop loss levels? Only to bounce strongly. U think retail was buying? ROTFLMAO Think like a crooked, blueblood, rich, elite, arrogant we control the world type, and you'll make loot imo. Picking the bottom is the only hard task so ease in slowly. As the dollar goes weimar, commodities will rise. they are not expensive in historical terms.
