| Gold Price Rallies vs Weaker Dollar as EU Retaliates in US Trade War |
| GOLD PRICES rose against a weakening Dollar in London trade Tuesday, regaining last week's 0.5% loss to reach $1329 per ounce but slipping in Euro and Sterling terms as talk of a "trade war" between the US and Europe grew.
After US President Donald
Trump last week proposed new US tariffs on steel and aluminum imports, "We are looking at possibilities to retaliate," the EU Commissioner for Trade

| The Threat Of An Asteroid Striking Earth Is Higher Than Originally Thought |
| New research from a team of Czech scientists, which discovered new asteroids traveling around our planet, suggests that the risk of earth being hit by one of those extraterrestrial rocks is increasing. The likelihood of an asteroid striking Earth increased after the team studied 144 large meteors from the Taurids, a meteor stream – the very stream which appears in our skies twice a year. Most of these asteroids are small and pose no real threat. But some are alarming in size.

| Russian Lawmaker Issues Sobering Threat: We’re Willing To Use Nukes To Defend Crimea |
| As of late, the media has forgotten about tensions between Ukraine, NATO, and Russia. Crimea and the conflict in Eastern Ukraine have largely left the public’s awareness. However, that shouldn’t be the case, because this region is still a powder keg that could blow at any time. And if it does, it could easily result in another world war.
If you don’t think the situation in Ukraine could still explode into a wider conflict, take a look at what this member of Russia’s parliament recently said at aWednesday, May 31, 2017 |

| The Map the Media Doesn’t Want You to See: Nations With the Most Refugees Have the Most Terror Attacks |
| The globalists who run the governments and the media outlets in Europe will never admit the truth about the refugee crisis. They’ll never admit that there is a direct link between opening their nation’s borders to people from chaotic war-torn nations, and horrific terrorist attacks. They’re constantly reassuring their citizens that they have nothing to worry about from refugees who come from terror prone regions, and to suggest otherwise is racist and Islamophobic.

| Why The Cartel Is So (Rightfully) Terrified |
| No event defines how rapidly America’s “leadership” has declined, then last night’s Academy Awards catastrophe. At which, one of its most prestigious accounting firms accidentally handed Warren Beatty the wrong “Best Picture” envelope, causing it to initially be awarded to the wrong movie. Yes, it was a “victimless crime” – but at a time when America’s accounting credibility is at an all-time low, it only adds to the perception of the incompetence that makes it unlikely to become “great again”Monday, February 27, 2017 |

| Global Warming: The Right Kind |
| The fragile coalition of US President Obama, German chancellor Angela Merkel, and French President Francois Hollande, all waging a futile second cold war on Russia has shattered.
Led by Donald trump, but fought by Angela Merkel, the world is warming up to Russia.
Obama is gone, Hollande is gone (dropped out), and Merkel is left dangling in a wind strongly blowing against her.

| Even before he takes office, President-elect Trump is turning the world upside down.It has become clear his attitude towards Russia and China is very different from that of his predecessors. Amazingly, he is already wresting power from the deep state, causing it great resentment, which under Obama, Clinton and the Bushes, ran geopolitical policy.

| European Central Bank gold reserves held across 5 locations. ECB will not disclose Gold Bar List. |
| The European Central Bank (ECB), creator of the Euro, currently claims to hold 504.8 tonnes of gold reserves. These gold holdings are reflected on the ECB balance sheet and arose from transfers made to the ECB by Euro member national central banks, mainly in January 1999 at the birth of the Euro. As of the end of December 2015, these ECB gold reserves were valued on the ECB balance sheet at market prices and amounted to €15.79 billion.

| The Latest Trial Balloon – The ECB May Be ‘Forced’ to Buy Stocks |
| Graham’s Musings: Thanks to Peter for sending this to us. It is indeed another trial balloon, but there is only one real problem – the ECB has been buying stocks for quite some time now. In my position, I happen to know that for a fact. The size of the purchases rival that of the Fed’s rapidly increasing balance sheet. Central bank purchases, as Andy and I have pointed out, buying financial instruments results in the central banks owning these things.

| In the wake of Brexit, the EU and German Chancellor Angela Merkel responded to the UK with spite and vengeance.
Merkel insists that if the UK pursues a Norway-style solution, it will have to accept the EU’s migration rules along with it.
Ironically, had the EU’s migration rules been more sensible, the UK would not have left in the first place.
