Faber(newsletter 8/1/2008) has a chart showing the U.S. Seasonally Adjusted Monetary Base has EXPLODED upwards from 852billion going into May to 872bilion as of now, on chart it looks like a ROCKET SHOT to Da Moon ascending line.
Also a chart showing that since 1980 Total-Debt to GDP ratio as been rising also relentlessly/witldly such that it has risen from 1.3 to 1 in 1980 to presently 3.50 to 1.
Faber has a ! at end of statement.Max

P.S.His remark regards GOLD on noting those charts i quote precisely "I still like GOLD in a safe deposit box--especially i look at Figure#3 and Figure#----but I wished gold would break down to around 800 level in order to provide a better entry point.
The figure#3 ansd #12 are the charts i refer to above.
i also stress regards gold he uses words "he wishes", he does not say it will go to that level.

Globalization and wage levels are not related - I don't understand your point?

only from the outside in. the chinese are not going to be making furniture here anytime soon. <g>

but some furniture makers selling here, are coming back already. and labor is not the tipping point for them now.

even IKEA has opened a USA factory. ho ho ho, to serve the usa market.

if we revert to some mean after this episode of global borderless production........... its going to get killed if inflation ramps argentina or zimbabwe style. then the whole ball of wax is truely done for, and for a very very long time.

say......... 1929-1946 or thereabouts nearly 20 years? if you take out war production.

Vi,

Where is this going?

quotes.ino.com

I can only assume the driver is an expected softening by the hawk Trichet and more jawboning by our Fed clowns.

72 stood, and it did so in face of Paulson-the-Snake's Freddie and Fannie play. Just another potential trillion clownbucks on the magnificent debt ledger. And the dollar holds. UFB.

Oil was the target, but gold may be one of the victims.
