International Banks will exchange private SK bank debt for SK govt Guarantees

Coincidentally, SK govt is where tax payer sponsored IMF money goes. I guess this is the big "secret."

But we're not bailing out banks. Nawww....

Paul,

<<They can sell dollars, sell treasuries or buy gold, all of
which would improve their economy without taxing Japanese, without using Japanese public funds, and without devaluing Japanese savings.>>

IMO any one of these options would potentially undermine the US dollar as the reserve currency and potentially give Au a boost.

I am not sure which would have the least affect on the dollar ...maybe a combination of all three.
