| Currency exchange value dynamics |
| In a recent article[i] I postulated that the dollar could lose all its purchasing power with a rapidity that will come as an unpleasant bombshell, even to those who already see inflation as society’s greatest problem in the future. The key to understanding why this may be so lies in human reactions to the monetary consequences of the next credit crisis. The undermining of the dollar as a currency affects all other fiat currencies, because it is the reserve currency and all financial markets use Thursday, March 1, 2018 |

| “Harry’s Dented logic” revisited |
| I believe I have written a couple of times in the past regarding Harry Dent’s “dented logic”. I did so after reading fearful e-mails from holders of gold and silver. Well, Harry Dent is at it again. He has advertisements everywhere, the latest posing as an “article” on Zerohedge where he says gold will be crushed to $700 in a market panic.
He claims a financial and market meltdown is coming to which I wholeheartedly agree because the math not only supports this, it guarantees it at some point. TWednesday, January 17, 2018 |

| The Old Songs |
| What if the fun and games of 2017 are over? The hidden message behind the sexual harassment freak show of recent weeks is that nothing else is sufficiently serious to occupy the nation’s attention. We’re living in the Year of Suspended Reality, stuck in the sideshow and missing the three-ring circus next door in the big tent.
It probably all comes down to money. Money represents the mojo to keep on keeping on, and there is probably nothing more unreal in American life these days than the way we Friday, November 24, 2017 |

| Crypto Currency Calm Before The Storm: “Governments Are Studying It To Find The Means To Take Control Of It… And You” |
| The United States (and the world) has been using the worthless fiat federal reserve note that is not backed by any true tangible asset. The only backing is not even the “full faith and credit of the United States government,” because the government is too far in debt to have any credit. Faith disappeared a long time ago: our faith in elected officials as public servants. Instead, they serve themselves upon the labors of the public, and the public services them, in every sense of the word.

| Deep State Attack!—Oppose, Protect And Profit |
| Apparently, The Globalist Deep State has gone on the Offensive again against Investors and Freedom—Potentially Conning Citizens everywhere via the deceptively named Bill “Combating Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing and Counterfeiting Act of 2017” (S1241 – Grassley R-IA). We say apparently because the language of the proposed law appears straightforward enough. However, the language of Key Provisions is so Broad it could be interpreted and applied in such a way very detrimental to Investors,Saturday, July 1, 2017 |

| Harry Dent Is Right About One Thing! |
| When I awoke this morning, I debated scripting this week’s second Audioblog – as I have a lot to say, about a great many topics. However, given that I have as much to show you, as tell you, I decided to write instead. Thus, today’s article will be a bit longer than usual. But I assure you, it will be well worth your time.
I decided to start with the simplest possible topic, of why Precious Metals have never been more valuable. After that, the day’s news; culminating in an explanation of todaFriday, May 5, 2017 |

| Gold Manipulation and $1.2 Quadrillion in Derivatives - Rory Hall |
| For several months during 2016 I was
researching the SDR, Federal Reserve Note/U.S. dollar, global currencies
and the people behind the scenes pulling the strings. The pulling of
the strings was being conducted by oligarchs,
like the Group of 30,
the IMF, BIS and other unelected globalist operating in broad daylight
or the shadows. During this time it became clear the task the citizens
face is one of epic proportions. These unelected bureaucrats, that write

| The System Needs To Reset and It Will Be Painful - Rory Hall/Dave Kranzler |
| To anyone who has researched the facts in search of “the truth,” it’s
painfully obvious that the U.S. political and financial system needs to
be reset. The most productive way to do this would be be build a wall
around Capitol Hill and Wall Street, burn them to the ground and move
the new Government capitol somewhere far from the east coast. In many
ways, it’s quite fitting that the U.S. Government is physically situated
on what was formerly swamp land because the Government itself has

| Insanity Prevails In The Stock Market - Dave Kranzler |
| The Dow and the S&P 500 stock indices are emblematic for the
degree to which the U.S. economic, financial, political and social
system has dislocated from reality. Insanity prevails in a system that
is corrupted to the core. “Going down the rabbit hole” is a popular
allusion in reference to the surrealism that has enveloped the American
system. I’d hazard to assert that it would take a few tabs of LSD to
make today’s world believable. The fact that Donald Trump is President

| Bryan Slusarchuk: Russia and China Gobbling Up Every Bit of Gold Possible - Rory Hall |
| Bryan Slusarchuk, President and Director, K92 Mining,
expressed concern over the fact that Canada no longer has any gold. We,
at The Daily Coin, share his sentiment and express our concern as often
as possible; not for Canada’s sake, but for the U.S.
If a nation holds no gold, how does the government control their
currency? A nation, like Canada, which admitted a few weeks back they
had liquidated their national gold holdings finds itself without limits

| For Trump, Gold Is Better Than Cash |
| Is gold better than cash? Donald Trump accepted three bars of it as a security deposit when a new tenant moved into his 40 Wall Street property in New York’s financial district.
Michael Haynes, chief executive of APMEX, the tenant, convinced the real estate mogul that accepting gold offered the greatest security for him. “I figured, Trump is a smart guy, and he’ll realize that taking gold is a better idea than taking cash.”

| On monetary finance and platinum coins |
| It has become clear to everyone in the financial world that the monetary policies pursued by central banks have completely failed in their objectives.Central bankers carry on regardless, continuing to ride the speeding money-train to the end of the line, a train from which jumping risks serious injury. Independent economists not working for a central bank would be blind not to see the failure, so some of them are thinking up imaginative solutions.There is a problem with their approach.

| Notes From a Currency War That Few Economists Notice or Understand |
| Most economists and financial analysts think that 'currency war' refers to the competitive devaluations that nations sometimes engage in to help boost their domestic economies, as they had done in the 1930's for example.
This time the currency war is a much more profound confrontation of differing agendas with the historically unusual role of the US dollar, based on nothing more than the will of the Federal Reserve and the 'full faith and credit' of the US, as the reserve currency for global ceMonday, September 21, 2015 |

| The action was a bit heavy in the metals today, as the Powers-That-Be quietly attempted to restore confidence and a sense of well-being and recovery after the somewhat disconcerting equity market plunge of Monday.
There was intraday commentary here about some interesting Goldman Sachs activity in an otherwise exceptionally sleepy week at The Bucket Shop.

| Economics of a crash |
| This month has seen something that happens not very often: it appears to be the early stages of a global stock market crash.
For the moment investors are in shock, seeking reassurance and keenly intent on preserving their diminishing assets, instead of reflecting on the broader economic reasons behind it. To mainstream financial commentators, blame for a crash is always placed on remote factors, such as China's financial crisis, and has little to do with events closer to home.

| The world is awash with “promises”. Nearly everything we think of as having “value” is because of a promise behind it. A few examples; your bank accounts, retirement funds, bonds and even the dollar bills in your pocket. Your bank account for example, once you deposit the money it is no longer yours. You can argue this if you wish but we now know this is true for sure after recent “bail in” legislation’s passed throughout the west.

| TOO MANY DOLLARS AND YET NOT ENOUGH…AT THE SAME TIME |
| We have watched, even marveled at how the U.S. dollar has strengthened since last September. All sorts of theories have been put forth as to “why”. Some have proffered the dollar is the cleanest dirty shirt of the bunch. Others believe the interest rate differential is kicking in where dollars at least have a positive interest rate versus negative rates elsewhere. Another theory and one which I have written about in the past and believe to be the main reason for dollar strength is the “margiThursday, March 12, 2015 |
