Det som kan ske är att dollarn faller mot den kinesiska valutan eller omvänt att den kinesiska valutan rusar när många kinesiska banker dumpar utländska tillgångar och för hem sin likviditet för att täcka de svarta hål som uppkommit i bankernas balansräkningar efter ett decenium av kreditexpansion. Vad tror "expertpanelen"?
Någon enstaka felinvestering i Kina och det slår tillbaka i en dominoeffekt som kreditförluster mot bankerna som har att kompensera sig för fallet i penningmängden och drar hem likviditet?
Känner ni virveln? Kan detta förklara
varför guldet faller mer i värde än den amerikanska börsen som går i motsatt riktning idag? Kineser har som tidigare nämnts en fascination för just...guld och inte litat på den amerikanska börsen.

Someone wanted to know my take on the outcome of Goldhog Day, so here it is.
Citat:
First of all, I view today's (quote-unquote) "gold" market as a two-legged dog. It has only two legs of support: private support (what we could call "the paper gold bull market" or private demand for paper gold from mostly metals, commodities and currency traders and dealers) and official (CB) support. I don't consider the demand for physical gold to be a leg of support for today's "gold" market. It has been more like a baseball bat to the "gold" market kneecap for quite a while.
Citat:
The reason for "keeping the price of gold down to free up Western physical gold" was simply to prolong the $IMFS until the euro launch date. But once "that selling dried up" and the CBs became "primary suppliers", there was no longer a need to keep the price of gold down. At that point it was better if it went up!
Citat:
When I talk about support for today's "gold" market, don't confuse that with price. Always remember that the ultimate supportive position is long paper/short physical. So it is possible to support "the market" at a low price by selling tonnes and tonnes of physical gold. Likewise it can be supported by buying "tonnes and tonnes" of paper gold, which tends to raise the price of "gold" and "stretch" the physical supply.
Citat:
Again, the two legs of support are the "gold" buying public and the CBs. The actual "use" (hoarding) of this particular commodity (physical gold) is not supportive of today's "gold" market, it is a major threat. And when I put "gold" in quotes, that means all the various paper that tends to move together with the $PoG constituting the entire precious metals sphere as we understand it today. I'm not just talking about a strictly defined type of paper gold. It is also helpful to exclude physical gold demand when conceptually thinking about today's "gold" market since it is a threat rather than a supporting element of that market.
Citat:
Even though I said not to confuse support with price, the rising $PoG is, in fact, the only thing holding today's "gold" market together. That is, the buying of tonnes and tonnes of paper gold which raises the price of paper gold thereby "stretching" the physical supply is the main action being taken by one or both of the two supporting legs (private traders and/or CBs) that is holding today's "gold" market together.
Citat:
The new "world financial architecture" (to use FOA's term) or the "fully-fledged Freegold paradigm" (to use Ari's) will be "assertively rolled forth" only after these two legs of *support* for the old "gold" market are gone. Whenever that happens, I personally envision the price of "gold" free falling very low before trading is halted, but that will be only the effect, the climax of a chain of events or the denouement of today's (quote-unquote) "gold" market. So if we want any kind of advance warning, however brief it may be, I think we should pay close attention to the sentiment of those two legs of support.
Tål att repeteras:

EDIT:
Hunden på bild ("guld"-marknaden) har stått på två ben - privata stödet (främst valuta handlare som handlar med pappersguld) samt officiellt stöd (CB (Centralbanker) runt om i världen). Det andra stödet, främst europeiska Centralbanker, slutade stödja pappersguld sista kvartal 2012. Det första stödet - försvann i början av 2013. Så kallad början på "gold bear market".
Européerna (€-området med ECB i spetsen) önskar ett slut på US$ supremacy som världens reservvaluta och ser Freegold som naturlig efterföljare. Dvs. fysiskt guld som en fertil medlem av internationell handel som beskrivet här:
