The Chicago Way Precious Metals Protection Plan |
Do you have a plan to protect your precious metals?
You should. I’m going to tell you mine today.
I’m from Chicago.
The second city. The windy city. The city of big shoulders.
All of that sounds nice, but if you’ve live in Chicago, the phrase that is always top of mind is not so romantic.
You may have heard it before. It’s the phrase that was famously mouthed by Sean Connery in the movie “The Untouchables” when he said “THATS the Chicago Way.”
The Chicago Way.

Dollar will stay weak if China has its way, Morgan Stanley says |
As China's currency trades near to its highest level against the greenback since the 2015 devaluation, don't expect the government to engineer a reversal any time soon, according to Morgan Stanley.
That's because Chinese policy makers are now embracing a strong yuan as it helps boost consumption and draw inflows, Hans Redeker, London-based global head of foreign-exchange strategy at the U.S. bank, said Tuesday. Thanks to China's position as the world's largest reserves holder and trade partner, Thursday, February 8, 2018 |

Interest Rates Walking On Narrow Ledge |
There is a huge shock in store for those who have been lulled to sleep by a stock market that has become accustomed to no volatility and only an upward direction. And that alarm bell can be found in the price action of Bitcoin, which recently tumbled over 40% is less than a week. For the implosion within the cryptocurrency world foreshadows what will happen with the major averages as the Federal Reserve futilely attempts to stop monetizing the exploding mountain of U.S. debt.

Fed Concerned Bitcoin Will “Eviscerate” Big Banks No, Not Really! |
A rumor is circulating that the Fed concerned Bitcoin will “eviscerate” big banks. Let's investigate the claim.Zerohedge writes As Bitcoin Nears $10,000 "Central Banks Kept Up At Night".
Here is the line that caught my attention: "St. Louis Fed President James Bullard admitted to Reuters in a recent interview what the real concern was: '(We could) wake up one day and most of the big banks have been eviscerated and most of that activity has moved elsewhere.'"

Nothing Really Matters, Anyone Can See - Craig Hemke |
The US labor force is rapidly shrinking. Wage
growth is non-existent. The vast majority of the American people have no
savings and little hope for economic improvement. But none of that
matters with the G-3 central banks in charge!
So today saw the latest installment of the
BLSBS. If you check your "mainstream" sources, you'll be led to believe
that everything is great and getting even better!

Ron Paul: Trump's picks for Fed chairman are just more of the same |
This week President Trump revealed his final five candidates for Federal Reserve chair. Disappointingly, but not surprisingly, all five have strong ties to the financial and political establishment. The leading candidates are former Federal Reserve governor and Morgan Stanley banker Kevin Warsh and current Fed governor, former investment banker, Carlyle Group partner, and George H.W.

October 2, 2017: One Nation Under Gold (2017), by James Ledbetter
Ledbetter glided quickly over the period from 1914 to 1931, taking up the story again in earnest with the British devaluation of 1931 and, especially, the U.S. devaluation of 1933. This was treated with some interesting detail. However, Ledbetter made almost no mention of the fact that the U.S. returned to gold at the beginning of 1934 at $35/oz., andMonday, October 16, 2017 |

The LBMA Is A Ploy of the Central Bank Community - Nico Simons |

Bitcoin's acceptance among retailers is low and getting lower |
Retailers were already skeptical about letting customers pay with bitcoin before the cryptocurrency's price underwent an astronomical rally this year. That rapid surge hasn't made them any more accepting. In fact, it may have done the opposite.
Bitcoin is accepted at just three of the top 500 online merchants tracked by the e-commerce news and analytics publication Internet Retailer, down from five last year, Morgan Stanley payments analyst James Faucette wrote today in a report, highlighting thThursday, July 13, 2017 |
