Hedging Non-Gold Investments With Gold |
The cliché that the present credit collapse is "the greatest financial crisis since 1929" is the understatement of the century. One measure of the crises is the ratio of gross private debt to nominal GDP. This ratio captures the idea how many years of current output it would take to retire outstanding debt. In these terms, the crisis is truly unprecedented. The world plunged into the present crisis with far greater debt than the debt outstanding at the time when it plunged into the Great Depression in 1929. Add to this the qualitative change in the structure of debt. The most exotic of the Roaring Twenties era debt was brokers' margin lending on the stock purchases of clients. Today, in addition, we have: (1) derivative instruments valued up to one quadrillion dollars, (2) adjustable-rate mortgages, (Saturday, February 13, 2021 |

The Jonker |
The Jonker diamond gets its name from Johannes Jacobus Jonker who was a 62-year old white South African settler with a claim at Elandsfontein, South Africa and about 5 Km south of the Premier mine, when he discovered the diamond January 17th 1934. At the time of its discovery, the stone was the fourth largest gem-quality diamond ever unearthed with its 726 carats. There was even speculation as to whether it hadWednesday, September 16, 2020 |

The Jeffersonian Secessionist Tradition |
“The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure.”
–Letter from Thomas Jefferson to William Stephens Smith, Nov 13, 1787
Thomas Jefferson, the author of America’s July 4, 1776 Declaration of Secession from the British empire, was a lifelong advocate of both the voluntary union of the free, independent, and sovereign states, and of the right of secession. “If there be any among us who would wish to dissolve this Union or tTuesday, July 7, 2020 |

Poverty, Prosperity, and Precious Metals - Jeff Nielson |
In the 20th century; by the end of the 1960’s,
Western societies and especially Canada and the United States reached a level
of prosperity never seen before – or since. Since the early 1970’s; the
standard of living across the Western world has been in a relentless trajectory
downward.
An article from April
2012
noted that the standard of living in the United States had already fallen by more than 50% since its
zenith. Since that time, the standard of living in the U.S. (and across the
West) hSunday, September 17, 2017 |

The “debt jubilee” nonsense |
This post is a rehash of something I wrote at TSI last September in response to the article titled “The Gold Standard and Debt Jubilee“. The article is a confused jumble of Marxist, biblical and capitalist ideas/assertions, but its gist is that we need both a debt jubilee and a gold standard. My views are that a gold standard is not a worthwhile objective and that a debt jubilee would be both an economic and an ethical disaster.

When The Tidal Wave Hits, Part I - Jeff Nielson |
Disaster is nearly upon us. This has been a
regular
theme
in these commentaries for several years. Increasingly, however, these
warnings draw reactions of apathy rather than alarm. The fact that our
house-of-cards economies (and societies) have not already unraveled does not
mean that this was a false alarm. It means that disaster has gotten much more
imminent.
When straight discourse fails to convey a
message, writers typically resort to a metaphor. But which one? The phrase “the

Republicans, Democrats, and Voodoo Economics - Jeff Nielson |
The Republican Trump regime has come out with its first
economic policy paper. Democrat Larry Summers call this
“voodoo
economics”
. This is very funny on multiple levels.
Many would argue that it was the Clinton regime (with Larry
Summers in charge of economic policy) which began the transformation of the
U.S. economy from what was still a relatively strong and prosperous entity into
the hopelessly crippled,
financial
Ponzi-scheme
which it has become today. It was during the Clinton yearFriday, January 20, 2017 |

Inflation is Economic Cancer - Jeff Nielson |
Informed readers understand that the
mainstream media is nothing more than an echo chamber for the propaganda of the
banking crime syndicate which rules over us, previously dubbed
the
One Bank
. The economic propaganda
generated by these puppet masters is the most damaging and misleading area of
mass-brainwashing to which we are exposed. This is because it is economic
propaganda, in particular, which facilitates the
systemic
crimes
of the One Bank.

Deutsche Bank On The Verge Of Collapse-Protect Yourself, And Do It Now! |
I don’t normally write Friday morning, in lieu of waiting for the week’s trading to close. However, as my entire family is flying in to celebrate Diana’s 50th birthday – from New York, New Jersey, Maryland, Florida, and California – I’m going to make an exception. Quite exciting – and terrifying; as I have no idea if today will indeed be the bloodbath it has all the potential in the world to be, or if the powers that be will be able to muster enough money printing, market manipulation, and proThursday, September 29, 2016 |

The trading day just ended, on what may be the penultimate week of “normalcy” for generations to come. Frankly, I have never been more scared, as the certainty of my views has never been more powerful. Which are, that nothing – not Central banks, governments, nor any “supreme manipulative power” – will be able to stop the unstoppable tsunami of political, economic, and monetary reality that has already engulfed large swaths of the “emerging” world; and currently, is heading for the “developed”Saturday, September 24, 2016 |

Terminal Economy: “Private Sector Will NEVER Recover…This Time, Replacing Humans Altogether” |
People are already taking the expected financial recession pretty badly.
There are literally millions of people in the United States who’ve become deeply entrenched in a struggle to find or hold a good job, while keeping expenses covered on the income they do make.
But most people assume they will shielded from the worst of it, that at some point things will pick up.
Sadly, the forecast is much darker, and the next financial collapse much deeper than almost anyone has prepared for. The outlook fFriday, August 26, 2016 |

The Gold Standard and Debt Jubilee - Jeff Nielson |
We need a gold standard.
For those (newer) readers who don’t understand why this is so, the explanation
couldn’t be simpler. Among other virtues, a gold standard performs two,
essential functions. It prevents (corrupt) governments from drowning us in
debt. It prevents (criminal) central banks from stealing all of our wealth, via
the “inflation” they create with their excessive money-printing.
It is these noble properties which earned
the gold standard its scornful nickname, from history’s mostWednesday, August 24, 2016 |
