Use the above link to subscribe to the paid research reports, which include coverage of several smallcap companies positioned to rise like a cantilever during the ongoing panicky attempt to sustain an unsustainable system burdened by numerous imbalances aggravated by global village forces. An historically unprecedented mess has been created by heretical central bankers and charlatan economic advisors, whose interference has irreversibly altered and damaged the world financial system. Analysis features Gold, Crude Oil, USDollar, Treasury bonds, and inter-market dynamics with the US Economy and US Federal Reserve monetary policy. A tad of relevant geopolitics is covered as well. Articles in this series are promotional, an unabashed gesture to induce readers to subscribe.
Gold is quietly on the verge of breaking out in all major currencys, after the all-out assault on the oil price left gold unscathed. Gold is the strongest performing among all the commodity items. Critical factors for the rise in the gold price are:
v The Bank of Japan has been compromised politically and will permit continued funding the global Yen Carry Trade.
v The Euro Central Bank has not finished with its interest rate hikes, sure to aid the rise in the euro currency.
v Housing has crippled US Federal Reserve policy, unable to defend the USDollar.
v A bank crisis worse than the 1989 Savings & Loan debacle is in progress, sure to see infection to the general banking system. The USFed and Dept of Treasury are laundering mortgage bonds illicitly, without 98.69% probability.
v China will invest its $1 trillion in FOREX reserves, sure to include commodity stockpiles and additions to their gold bullion bank.
v The global liquidity torrent continues, which fits the Weimar description.
v Price inflation continues to rush through the system’s pipelines.
v Flat gold mining output growth in 2007 is expected. Global gold demand in 2006 hit a record.
v Geopolitical turmoil seems a constant, seemingly on the brink of eruption lately.
Critical factors which place the gold at risk are few:
v A major coordinated central bank gold dumping might occur at any time.
v The USFed might view higher long-term interest rates as USEconomic strength. Wrong! See lower OPEC surpluses. A rate hike would protect the USDollar.
v Peace might emerge across the MidEast, as the US and Iran kiss & make up. Faggedabaddit! Russia is in the picture. Is that a Sunburn missile on that thar hill?
v An economic recession across the United States and Europe might take hold, without any infection into the bank system. Not another Goldilocks theory?
I don’t know about you, but 9 powerful PRO factors in progress, versus 4 CON factors (some unlikely) seem like great odds to me for a gold price increase toward new highs. The pros and cons line up to do battle over the gold price. Of course, for each gold price growth factor cited, the same applies to silver. These factors are discussed and fleshed out in the February report due this weekend.
Relevant events to the gold community are taking place with the International Monetary Fund and gold swaps, advice by Citigroup regarding Barrick Gold hedge books, and some large stated losses in gold derivatives by UBS. Suspicions remain prominent in my view of Exchange Trade Funds for gold and silver, with personal assessment given. The luster on vaulted gold contains some scum.
THE HAT TRICK LETTER PROFITS IN THE CURRENT CRISIS.
From subscribers and readers:
"Jim Willie tells you what media don't want you to know. I get really great intelligence for a fraction of the subscription price. That means I get Jim’s newsletter at half the price, because there is so much. I have to read it twice."
(Matt C in Illinois)
“I have been researching you. I thought you were an average friendly guy, but then when I heard from our gold bug shareholders that you are considered one of the top gold experts in the world.”
(BobD in Toronto)
“I see just about everything. I read or at least evaluate all the new articles on Financial Sense, Free Market News, Dollar Collapse, Prudent Bear, 321gold, 321energy, Drudge, Jim Sinclair. Yet I still get the most juice from one source every month, with fascinating twists on the meanings of things, and that is from you.”
(Mark in Florida)
“You seem to be ahead of the curve. A lot of these other folks seem to be on the curve, then come the shills who seem to be behind the curve. Humbly submitted to you is my opinion that in so many different instances you were SO 'spot on' that to list these instances would take more time than I am able to devote in describing same.”
(Joe Z in New Yawk)
