Inhale deeply.  The sweet smell of Deflation.  Wink

I must admit I'm not an American but I can tell you prices are going up in the UK. You can see it with fuel and food prices.

Pretty much every American I've heard says it is happening in the US too, so don't get too excited over your dollars.

Looking at the USDX it seems the other FIAT currencies should experience roughly the same rate of debasing.

Consumer prices seem high to me more frequently and for a wider range of products lately, so I think shit is finally trickling down. I expect this to increase.

Is honey a good indicator? For some unknown reason I think that is the case.


Honey is an interesting case, but not for reasons of deflation. Bees are dying all over the world (particularly where GMOs are grown), so using this as an indicator for macroeconomics might not be the best case. Using it as an indicator for much larger shit going down around the world, sure.

Point taken.

I still like that swedish guy who is backing a local currency with honey: http://blogs.sweden.se/sustainability/2011/10/06/honey-is-the-new-money-in-lund/

here's an interesting fact.  

we've had 70 straight weeks of upward revisions to the Initial Claims Report for unemployment:  http://biz.yahoo.com/c/terms/claims.html

if you'd bet $0.01 each week that we'd get an upward revision while reinvesting the profits you'd now have accumulated $0.01 x 2^70 = $11,805,916,207,174,113,034.24

actually, i didn't state that quite right:  if you'd initially bet $0.01 starting in June of 2011, double or nothing, and reinvested the winnings each week for the 70 straight weeks since then, you'd be sitting on a profit of $11,805,916,207,174,113,034.24.

what comes after trillion?

bitcoin?

 Cheesy

Love it!

What comes after a Trillion Dollars?

And you would've won a balls-of-steel award for not pulling out a week earlier at $5,902,958,103,587,056,517

Gold collapsing? I don't follow the metal prices. Link?


ya i agree gold is due for a Major correction.

Gold Line keeps calling me telling me its not a bubble ...

Gold is not going up. It's the dollar that's losing value.

If anything in the marketplace should be the yardstick of value, it is gold, not USD. So you should price USD in terms of gold and you will see a very different picture. Don't let the "upward run" of gold deceive you. Gold isn't changing, the dollars are.
I agree gold is the yard stick the world measures wealth.  How ever the economy needs credit in the form of a currency to satisfy liquity. This is why bitcoin is more of a threat to central banks then gold. They have all the gold. 

Sometimes when gold goes down it's due to the dollar getting stronger.

So I've been thinking that were just coasting along after the QE forever drifting slightly downwards waiting...  The next thing that is going to be a major influence I believe is the election..

I think that if Romney wins, PM's will not do as well as if Obama wins.

BTC I don't believe will be effected by the election, its next big thing is the delivery of ASICs and the block reward halving, I'm not sure either will have a big effect, but I think that if they do it will be upwards.

This thread was started 3/13:

Bitcoin  5.40

Gold 1690


Today 11/3:

Bitcoin 10.56 (up ~95%)

Gold 1676   (down ~1%)


PM's and BTC both have taken a bit of tumble recently, BTC more so then PM's.  

BTC is outperforming gold.

Gold remains uncollapsed.

Gold appears to be having starting failing its own Kaboom moment.

I see USD failing to find support after barely breaking the horizontal resistance line I drew earlier.  I also see Gold breaking its own resistance levels much more decisively...

Well?   Roll Eyes

Gold down on jobs data? If that were true, it's only a temporary glitch. Anyone that pays attention to that fake data is kidding themselves and perhaps soon kicking themselves too.

ah yes, the self proclaimed Winner is here.  what say you?
