| Mnuchin comment surprises markets, turns dollar decline into 'one-way bet' |
| Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin's comment that a weak dollar is good for the country accelerated a decline in the currency and fed fears in a market already speculating that White House may make the dollar less attractive for the longer term. ...
Mnuchin's comments echo statements by President Donald Trump, who famously helped turn a market trend of a stronger dollar last January when he said, prior to his inauguration, that the dollar was "too strong" and that U.S. companies can't compete becWednesday, January 24, 2018 |

Amazon launched a house brand, called AmazonBasics, in 2009. It was originally a way for Amazon to sell low-cost, generic versions of electronics accessories, like cables and plugs. Over time, Amazon has expanded its offerings dramatically, to the point where it’s difficult to see how the brand still refers to “basic” productThursday, December 21, 2017 |

Because of the rise of Globalism in the late 20th century the U.S. and Western Europe have recently seen stirrings of nationalist awakenings. Terrorism, turmoil in the Middle East and waves of Muslim refugees have fueled the trend.

| USAGOLD/Peter Grant/07-05-17
Gold has regained some ground intraday, but remains generally defensive after getting hit hard in thin holiday trading earlier in the week. Focus is now on the FOMC minutes from the June meeting, which come out at 2:00ET.
Gold had proven to be quite resilient in the face of heightened hawkishness from global central bankers, and it was only heavy selling in the paper market during thin conditions that was able to push the yellow metal lower. It feels like policymakerWednesday, July 5, 2017 |

| China excluded from the global gold price or arbitrage includes it?China is unhappy that gold prices should be driven by U.S. and dollar concerns. But many state that because there is no free flow of gold in and out of China, China will remain a parochial market, not integrated into the global gold market.

| How is the gold price made?When we hear commentary on why the gold price has moved, we usually hear of U.S. economic or political factors and a move in the U.S. Dollar. Most times these do not precipitate the buying of physical gold.What they do do, is to spur the buying or selling of futures or Options on the COMEX gold market. Many commentators attribute moves in the physical gold price to moves on COMEX.But this link is tenuous, as COMEX does not [except for a maximum of 5% and minimum of 1% Thursday, May 25, 2017 |

For good measure, Trump blasted Canada over its dairy product policy.
The Trump administration has opened a wide-ranging probe into whether to curb steel imports in the name of national security, ramping up its campaign to give a more economic nationalist tinge to American trade policy.

| Economic Globalization Is Not Political Globalization |
| Globalization has fallen into disrepute. More and more people are rejecting it outright as unfair and as a source of all sorts of evil — including economic crises and migration.This kind of blanket condemnation of globalization however is a huge problem. The reason for this becomes apparent if one considers the fact that globalization has two dimensions, an economic and a political one.Economic globalization is synonymous with the cross-border division of labor.

Eurointelligence goes one further and suggests it’s a done deal, not just a threat.
The immediate impact would be a loss of 6 percentage points, or more, support for PD, putting Beppe Grillo’s Five Star Movement solidly in the lead.
In national polls, the PD is only slightly ahead of the Five Star Movement, an anti-establishment party which has called for a referendum on the euro. Any PD defection coTuesday, February 21, 2017 |

 Carnage of the Middle Class  |
| In President Donald J. Trump's inaugural address he promised, "This American
carnage stops right here and stops right now." And immediately liberals and
the MSM took umbrage to his use of the word carnage, which means the slaughter
of a large number of people, claiming it was just too dark a description for
America. Maybe so. However, in a recent Bloomberg commentary, Justin Fox cites
some sobering statistics that support Trump's statement.
