Petra …We do know that somebody dealing with the deployment of the new rate dropped the ball…hence the UST personnel being sent to Iraq to GET IT DONE! …the game of chicken was lost when the “execution” of the rate and notes was not accomplished in the time frame Sadani wanted…
Frank26 I know they were supposed to open the budget…with instruction and they did not. Once again I say who cares. We know the cha-cha-cha of this dance. The Middle East does not have a watch. They use a sundial and it just take a little longer to develop…
ALERT! There Will be No “Gold Backed” BRIC’s Currency Without a TOTAL DERIVATIVE MELTDOWN!
(Bix Weir) 7-18-2023
The talk of a BRIC’s Gold Backed Currency is just that…TALK!
I’m not saying they aren’t going to try to do something but whatever they do try will fail faster than you can say…”Click the Mouse!”
To introduce sound money into a world where there is NO TRUE PRICE DISCOVERY is a total and complete waste of time.
Gold prices are RIGGED in EVERY CURRENCY so how can ANYTHING be valued in gold?!
Having said that…it may be the ONLY ALTERNATIVE after the CRASH of the $2.5 Quadrillion derivative market!
