"No one knows what to do. If this was the early Trading Places scene, Eddie Murphy would be saying "Look Christmas is coming and they don't know what to do with the Treasuries taking a hit. Do they go to USD cash? Do they go to gold? Look at them. I can feel it. They don't know WTF to do." ROFLMAO!! Exactly right. so it all goes back to when not if.

again, your argument would make more sense if gold weren't crshing. really hard to see how TEOTWAWKI for sovereigns would coincide with the biggest crsh in a yr in the historical alternative.
