There's no plot. Anyone holding dollars right now is losing value, the treasury cannot raise interest rates to make up for that loss, and with other economies starting to raise interest rates we are even less able to get investors to buy our debt than before.
The only one dumping dollars on the market is the Fed. This is the start of the slide we've been fearing since they started dumping last year. |

Gold is now 1060/Oz.(intraday high).
Happy news for those of us who bought at 750, 850, and 950 as much as we could (I was laughed at back then by some for pointing out the obvious about interest rates below 1% for this long). That is NOT a 'rise in value' of gold. It is the obvious. Gold doesn't change. Of course the stock market is up. I hear the zimbabwe stock market is worth several quadrillion Zim dollars. Nominal values are meaningless. You should now be all buying silver (not gold until it dips again). I certainly hope the current policy continues. My $2000 Troy ounce may not be able to buy much more than a 800 dollar ounce could've in 1979, but at least I'll have preserved my wealth a heck of a lot better than some fool putting their money in a savings account or fixed income and trusting in the good graces of Bernanke & Co. |
