Central banks, specially the FED, don't want gold surge and you imagine why.
We don't really know how many papergold there is versus real gold but it is for sure not one to one. Which should not exist.
We have seen the problem of the FED to deliver physical gold to Germany.
So, the secret is well kept, I think, about the real situation of the FED.
And the central banks are unfortunately now run by government.
Swiss central bank is not either in good position as it has to load, and load a quantity of foreign currency (USD and Euro) in order to keep the swiss francs in a comfort zone for exportation.
The tension is getting higher each time we have a "crash" (I mean when investors loose faith!). Like in medical point of view, we call it depression, there is a reason. Everything is done in order WE don't loose faith in the currency or in the economic system.
Capitalism is broken. There is a point of no return as the system has destroyed the middle class. We enter, like in politic, in a fight between the extreme. And like in electricity, to much charge between the positive and the negative lead to a spark, which can be an explosion depending on the environment (mix of gasoline and air for your car!).
So politics know this can lead to revolution and this "tension" will be divert like germany did in the 30th. Instead of having the people fighting each other or taking down the politics in power, they can be "sheeped" to a war, a common enemy.
So, nobody except the leader, want that. We see already the saying "the virus of China, the virus of the communist party of China, etc.
So, to make it short, as long as the central bank are unified in their action, gold will be controlled with buying pressure from Russia and others. I mean others, the ones who knows that the printing will lead, without doubt, to inflation. Not right now, but a few years ahead. It was like that and will be like that.
So gold will slowly keep its track higher as long as our system of capitalism is not changed. I don't think of communism, but a system that will balance consumption with harmony with nature. We see already momentum with this kind of investment.
So, hope the change will not be with fight and revolution or war, but a consciousness that our life depend on just one little ball where we live.
And you can be wherever on the planet, now it is the dollar. But the way it goes, I have some doubt that we can come back to something more physical like gold. Some think of bitcoin (or chinese virtual coin) but you must trust a "computerized" system which can be destroy one way or another.
So, don't bet gold in a couple of months.
Buy physical gold or certificate of physical gold where you can have the delivery of it. This is a long term insurance against the fool who are driving the car and where you cannot do too much about the course.
If you look carefully, the downtrend is not due to the job market. Already days before, as soon as the NY Comex open, a slam to gold to a certain level. "They " did not want a break over 1750. Period. So 1730,....1710.....and then, big slam in order to divert the investment to..not bonds....no, but Dow, Nasdaq, etc.
The manipulator need the stock exchange to be as healthy as possible even if the fundamental are NOT. It doesn't matter. Is is just a waltdisney show, a wonderland where the few will not join the street but will be able to hire body guard and weaponized assisted house. If the 10 TB is going higher, this means as well that the money does not want to go to TB. If the dollar is loosing its value, same remark.
So don't tell me we are in a complete manipulated war (economic, currencies, sanctions, etc...with little virus just as a kind of show how far we can go)....just for the investigators around, do you remember the Kim jung one NK guy said loud and clear that he will make a present for Trump in Christmas.....No connection? Just China?....
Anyway, this market is made by retail investors (same in Russia)....when the housewife is in the stockmarket,....sell (and what about the saying sell in may and go away, may was a good month..).So, no fundamental so far, just dream, great america again with re problem inside and outside than when it was Obama.....a black president, can you imagine.
we have to remember, as said, that we are in "unchartered territories". This pseudo expansion is due to cheap money and huge liquidity injection. Manipulation, curtain of smoke...but the reality is different when the show is over. Every country which had played this way of doing end up with huge inflation and currency in the toilet. Why no USA?
If we take the cumulative int. rate from the time of this article, lets say a average of the 3 years TB, which is the winner. I don't take in consideration S&P or Dow J..
One thing to consider is the level of the debt of the so called richest countries (USA, Japan, Europe, GB)
and must be a concern.
For the geopolitical tension, which is different this time(hackers, terrorist with may be biol or chemical weapon, dirty bomb), should make a point for gold in coin...just in case..
The contrary wind?
Government! They will do whatever possible to keep gold down as gold is THE barometer of the confidence in a currency. Paper gold issue by the fed have never been control with the real gold detained (no audit)
By article you mean my comment or the article of Mr.M Snyder. I must agree that I've made some shortcut but by reading twice (may be you have) slowly, this would help.
In summary, the currency war and low int. is a pushing the can till the real war happens. The low int. rate serves the gov. The central banks play with the politicians and the saving account pay the bill. If you are angry against your politicians/gov., they know this fact (pool) and they will divert your "bad feeling" and "violence" against a enemy. A war. Then you will have to choose a side and big restriction will apply (money transfer/control) and the situation of gold will be like we have seen once already. Nobody will be allowed to have some. Gold is a barometer of the trust in a currency. So, if we distrust the politicians and the central bank play with politicians, one day we will distrust the central bank.More deficit....more distrust till a breaking point. Can be USA, Japan or Zimbabwe.
Nobody speaks anymore of the "uncharted" water but here we are.
Central banks (FED, BoJ, ECB, BoE) have played with the devil. Devil are governments which are just kids with credit cards. Pouring money made out of thin air and lowering interest rate till zero or less is a help for the biggest borrower which are unable to maintain their budget, I mean government.
You can play that till investor realize that both, government bond and currency, worth nothing. If Greece were alone (not in the euro zone), this country would have been bankrupted while ago. Some others too.
And USA doesn't have a better place neither Japan.
And when you realize that the paper you have in hand is going into a spiral of distrust, war is in the corner in order to blame the neighbor. And all the violence you would have against your politicians (see the percentage of people who trust their government with the latest pool. The lowest on record!) is diverted to an external (cause as the politicians will say) and as a time of war, you will have to choose your side. Tougher rules will limited your financial movement (see the central banks want to suppress the cash!)
ECB saw that coming as central bank are not stupid. But politicians brought us is this situation with their imbalance budget and are the only responsible for the distortion of the market that will lead in very high wave and breaker. As you said 2008 was a warm up as central banks don't have anymore black powder in their gun.
the massive fraud it has introduced into the American economy by purchasing $3.6 billion of government debt over the past 7 years with credits conjured out of nothing.
This is I think the point. FED, like other central banks, has become the prostitute of the government. FED doesn't care of the citizen and their saving. FED is just saving the government from a collapse due to its huge debt and the poor way politicians handle the budget.
And more we go this direction, now with the fed trapped with quite a lot of TB, there is only few way to get out of this and going back to the mission of the FED. Make the dollar keeping value for the mom and pop guys. FED has failed and, on the top of all, on purpose.

Weak Bounce Wednesday – Here We Go Again
USA was the first with QE....Japan followed...and after that all others have to do the same.

But when USA will collapse, the entire world will follow them.
Thanks to the bubble of subprime/Lehman brothers...
But this time, no powder in the gun and the street people will make a revolution.
The upper class know that.
