hoenig shoots missile across inflationary bow... market-ticker.denninger.net historically, the game is boom and bust. denninger is right - the current situation is the fed's fault, but why did they do what they did? 1. to save their banking owners. 2. to lock in 1% of GDP as bonuses under the scam of recovery. 3. to buy time to unload their trillions in toxic assets onto the public. the question that remains is simple - is it in the banking elite's best interest to crash the economy and buy assets for pennies on the dollar or is it in their best interest to inflate all their dollars away? anyone who follows the elite types know they are very worried about over population. crash the economy, buy assets for pennies on the dollar, default on foreign debt, start war and send unemployed serfs off to die en masse. the elites own most of the assets, the population is reduced dramatically and the debt problem is greatly mitigated - nothing their new slave class can't work away, anyway. i'm not 100% here yet, but i sure as heck can't exclude it. gold as crash insurance and devalue insurance makes sense in this environment, too. if this starts playing out, though, and the markets start collapsing and gold with it, it makes sense to be ready to hedge bullion insurance. head on a swivel.
