No wonder Geithner wants to resign. With the Fed out of the Treasuries market, who will be buying in August? Are we finally going to see interest rates start to revert to the mean? Is the TBT trade finally here? Gold might get slaughtered as rates rise. Is this why we have had such a preemptive sale of it lately? There is a hell of a lot to think about in the next week or so. All of this interest rate-positive, gold negative stuff could easily be countered by European troubles, though I think the time frame for them might be a bit later, unless of course the rating agencies light the fuse. I don't ever recall a more difficult set of events to throw chicken guts on.

TJ---Thanks that was a great presentation--easy to understand. Thought I would take itthe guys at coffee this morning. Thought they would understand. Wrong. There are 10 of us and the other 9 think everything is fine. That is probably a major contribution to the state of the US---apathy. They are ok today and have always been----so nothing bad can happen. So they don't plan for it. ---and they have plenty of money---they wouldn't miss it---Peace
