paul, Japanese yen is up over 1 yen to the dollar and gold is up 1$. As the yen has oscillated tonight gold has gone with it lockstep. Japanese stock market is up over 2% also. You don't suppose that Greenspan and his Japanese counterpart made some type of agreement Friday.

I liked the post by Old Gold and inflation has been the problem solver for governments in the past. This move is the one that we predicted and now gold will regain its luster.

Terry,

Indonesian students storm parliament

By John Aglionby in Jakarta
Tuesday September 8, 1998

Some 2,000 students massed outside Indonesia's parliament yesterday, above, to demand President B. J. Habibie's resignation, after tearing down the compound's gates.

"This is the start of round two," one man shouted as a surge of bodies pushed over the 5ft-high gates. He was referring to the weeks-long occupation in May that helped precipitate the downfall of President Suharto.

After a tense standoff, hundreds of riot police and troops on guard behind the gates allowed 2,000 students to advance about 20 yards into the sprawling grounds, before blocking their way to the parliament building with a heavy cordon of riot shields.

Some of the soldiers were seen conspicuously loading their rifles.

Chanting anti-government slogans, the students demanded that Mr Habibie quit because of his handling of the economic crisis.

After darkness fell most of the students dispersed, but about 300 remained, singing patriotic songs, faced by hundreds of troops.
