Gold Price Explosion on the Way - US Dollar is Doomed | |
Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 896034 United States 03/27/2010 08:59 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If investors stop buying US Treasuries the dollar will collapse! Quoting: Once4All__________________________________________ Supply fears start to hit Treasuries By Michael Mackenzie in New York and David Oakley in London Published: March 26 2010 19:18 | Last updated: March 26 2010 19:18 The bond vigilantes are finally flexing their muscles. A long period of stability for the US government bond market showed signs of cracking this week as a lack of investor appetite for new debt sent the benchmark 10-year yield to its highest level since last June. For more than a year, analysts have been warning that record sized debt sales by the US Treasury were at odds with a 10-year yield sitting comfortably below 4 per cent. This week, the yield on 10-year notes jumped from 3.65 per cent to a peak of 3.92 per cent on Thursday. On Friday it was 3.87 per cent. Falling inflation, rising unemployment, the housing market slump, the Federal Reserve’s policies of a near zero overnight borrowing rate and its purchase of up to $1,700bn in bonds have all helped keep Treasury yields near historic lows. But this week the mood shifted as yields for $118bn of new US debt were much higher than forecast, sparking overall selling of Treasuries. Sentiment also deteriorated in the UK bond market after the government’s budget ahead of a general election expected in May failed to resolve doubts over future spending and debt reduction. The term “bond vigilantes” was coined in the 1980s when bond investors pushed up long-term yields to force central banks into taking action to curb inflation. This time, bond investors are less worried about inflation: they are fretting about huge fiscal deficits and the looming bond supply needed to finance them. “Everyone thought we would see rising rates due to higher inflation, but it appears the bond vigilantes are demanding a higher real rate due to concerns about Treasury issuance,” says George Goncalves, head of fixed income strategy at Nomura Securities. The fact that German Bunds have outperformed both Treasuries and gilts in recent months highlights this increasing worry over public debt. Germany’s budget deficit is much lower than the US and UK and inflation there is also expected to remain low. “The spotlight on Greece only helped to reveal that the US’s kitchen – with Federal and state budget balances – was itself full of cockroaches,” says William O’Donnell, strategist at RBS Securities. It hasn’t helped that the US announced a big overhaul of its healthcare system this month, adding to worries about the scale of US spending. Moreover, the Fed completes its bond buying programme next week, leaving the market to absorb the supply of new debt on its own. Next week’s March employment report, which economists say could see 150,000 jobs created, also looms as a test for bond market sentiment. ============================================ Buy physical gold and silver coins to protect your savings.

GlassPearls User ID: 613866 United States 03/27/2010 04:31 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Mid-long term, metals will remain volatile. Explosively so. We'll see huge run ups and major dips along the way. As flawed as the USD is, it is less flawed than all other fiats for one simple reason; human nature. Many people of the world still view the USD as a safe harbor. So... as currencies around the world go into crises, the USD will benefit (temporarily) as people flock to this perceived safe haven. However, that process will lose frequency over a short time as people see that the downside valuation of the USD is stronger than the panic factor. In short, buy physical metals. Just don't do so on leverage, and be prepared for extreme volatility going forward. As always, Google Jim Sinclair and READ. |

Section: Daily Dispatches Additional Statement by Bill Murphy, Chairman Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee to the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission Washington, D.C., March 25, 2010 On March 23, 2010, GATA Director Adrian Douglas was contacted by a whistleblower by the name of Andrew Maguire. Maguire is a metals trader in London. He has been told first-hand by traders working for JPMorganChase that JPMorganChase manipulates the precious metals markets, and they have bragged to how they make money doing so. In November 2009 Maguire contacted the CFTC enforcement division to report this criminal activity. He described in detail the way JPMorgan Chase signals to the market its intention to take down the precious metals. Traders recognize these signals and make money shorting the metals alongside JPM. Maguire explained how there are routine market manipulations at the time of option expiry, non-farm payroll data releases, and COMEX contract rollover, as well as ad-hoc events. On February 3 Maguire gave two days' warning by e-mail to Eliud Ramirez, a senior investigator for the CFTC's Enforcement Division, that the precious metals would be attacked upon the release of the non-farm payroll data on February 5. On February 5, as market events played out exactly as predicted, further e-mails were sent to Ramirez while the manipulation was in progress. It would not be possible to predict such a market move unless the market was manipulated. ... Dispatch continues below ... [link to www.gata.org] |

My sense is that BIG PLAYERS are going to continue to demand delivery as we move forward. Eventually JPMorgan and others will have to cover their short positions and the price of gold and silver will explode!!! It's not IF but WHEN and whether or not an investor has taken a position. |

Any good laymans estimate would be great. Unfortunately I can only give you a 'laymans estimate' because I really don't know. I think the world is tired of buying our debt which could lead to more QE by the fed. I'm hoping gold will climb into June [while the us dollar falls] and then see a short term reversal in both. I don't know when but still firmly BELIEVE gold will explode! By 'explode' I certainly mean to new highs and hopefully at least to $1300/ounce. |
