Years ago ( mid 80's) while on company trip to Switzerland, several us us were on a tour bus heading up towards Interlachen. We were wind our way along those narrow, picturesque 2 lane Swiss roads. All of a sudden, traffic is stopped ahead. We're alongside a good sized, but flat meadow, and we notice what appears to be a runway in the middle of it, but nothing else. Suddenly, the side of the mountain swings open..and THREE Mirage fighters rolled out onto the runway and took off, one after the other. I swear the whole thing, from the mountain opening, to the planes taking off, and the mountain closing, was over in less than TWO minutes. Then the traffic just moved off.
One would think that the Swiss would want to physically hold their own gold.

That could be payback for the US and some of the European nations grilling Swiss banks,for tax evasion.Otherwise looks like the gold bugs might have been on to something.

Sounds like a lot of international distrust going on.

With all the shenanigans going on around the world I wouldn’t trust anyone. I’d also dill every bar to see if it’s real.

They’ve maxed out the credit cards...
The derivatives and hedge funds are at the table limit, the dice are in the air, and somebody’s gonna have to pay up!
Printing paper just so you can buy more paper and invest it to get even more paper is a game that will soon be seen for what it really is.

NO COUNTRY....I REPETE...NO COUNTRY will ever be allowed to back their currency via gold unless the International Bankers own and pick that country...
worthless "fiat money" (which they can print) is the way they control the gold.... (Give me the printing press and I'll own every ounce of gold that exists!)

I think you are wrong.
That is part of what I was getting to in post 16.
The whole “credit” scam is unwinding.
For instance, look at Iceland. They basically told the international bankers to whiz up a rope, and chucked some of the big boyz there in the clink.
And supposedly, their economy is making a nice recovery.
When debt gets so big the only way to keep going is to borrow money just to pay the interest, it is then unsustainable, and meaningless in terms of more debt.
I’ve read probably four or five papers in the last month where large-scale financial study/policy groups are SERIOUSLY talking about a new Bretton-Woods type agreement.
If gold was to become the new base for a worldwide economy, they ain’t gonna even bother pegging it at 1,600 dollars an ounce.
They’ll go ballz to the wall and peg it at 25,000 dollars an ounce.
They would be forced to so that they could keep the paper shuffling game going on.
