A Short History of the Gold Cartel
By: James Turk
There are only two outcomes as I see it. Either the gold cartel will fail in the end, or the US government will have destroyed what remains of the free market in America. I hope it is the former, but the continuing flow of events from Washington, D.C. and the actions of policymakers suggest it could be the latter.

It is to restore gold and silver to its rightful role as the money of the United States, as mandated by the Constitution.

The Federal Reserve’s Blueprint for Market Intervention
By: James Turk
Today’s problems with the dollar and countless insolvent banks thus began decades ago. Bankers got what they wanted, a license for the unbridled extension of credit. As a result, we see clearly today what they have wrought. They have nearly collapsed their banks and the dollar as a consequence. So the emergence of this “Confidential” memo from the Federal Reserve is timely, and hopefully today’s policy makers can learn from it.

More on Gold Backwardation
By: James Turk
Over the last few weeks, there have been a lot of articles on the Internet about backwardation, i.e., when the price of commodities for delivery today is higher than the price of commodities for delivery in the future. Like nearly all the things on the Internet, most of what was written is useful, but some of it is total rubbish, and it takes time to sort through to find the gems from the rest. I offer the following in the hope that it clears up some of the confusion that has arisen about backwardation as well as to provide some insight into today’s gold market.

Thinking Like “Fat Tony”
By: James Turk
It’s really very simple. Fiat currency is a scheme perpetrated by central banks. To make their scheme work, they intervene in the gold market to manipulate the gold price. By doing so they try to make their fiat currency look better. Thus, it’s not gold that is the barbarous relic. The barbarous relic is central banking.

Last Plane Account
By: James Turk
When I lived in South East Asia thirty-five years ago the farthest thing from my mind would be recommending that Americans create their own last plane account. However, I have seen in my six decades on this earth how things can change. I think having a last plane account is basic common sense.

Weimar Inflation in America
By: James Turk
The Federal Reserve is following the footsteps of the central bank in Weimar Germany. It is the same path taken by many central banks that have issued countless fiat currencies based on nothing but government promises. It is the path to the fiat currency graveyard, and the once almighty US dollar – which long ago used to be “as good as gold”, just like the Reichsmark once held that same exalted title – is knocking at the graveyard’s gate.

More Questions About the Silver ETF
By: James Turk, Founder & Chairman of GoldMoney.com
When you own shares in SLV, you do not own physical silver, you own an equity that gives you exposure to the silver price. That makes SLV a trading vehicle, like a futures contract. A futures contract is not an alternative to owning physical silver, and neither is SLV.
