  • The majority is never right. Never, I tell you! That’s one of these lies in society that no free and intelligent man can ever help rebelling against. Who are the people that make up the biggest proportion of the population — the intelligent ones or the fools? I think we can agree it’s the fools, no matter where you go in this world, it’s the fools that form the overwhelming majority.

    Hendrik Ibsen-

  • The mainstream (corporate) media is nothing less than the unofficial accomplice of the banking crime syndicate which is running/ruining our markets and economies. Nowhere is this despicable relationship more apparent than in its deliberate efforts to grossly misinform investors on the critical subject of risk.

    Jeff Nielsen

  • The business of investing rationally becomes problematic when market participants are pursuing maximum nominal returns without a second thought as to the real (inflation-adjusted) value of those returns and the location of the savings. Our Goal is to maximize safety.

  • Comparing the currencies is like picking the prettiest horse in the glue factory. The history of all fiat currencies shows they all end up being valueless. Gold’s nobody else’s liability and it has no counterparty risk. It’s provided protection against destruction of wealth for centuries and we’re at the cusp of another major chapter in its illustrious history.

(hyper) Inflation & LOCG

HOCG = High order Capital Goods (real estate, machinery).

LOCG = Low Order Consumer Goods (energy, food)

helicopter ben

Hyperinflation is caused not by facts but by an intangible: the sudden realization of what had been there all along but hadn't been recognized. Today inflation is rising slower because the velocity of the growing money supply is momentarily coming down. This is a normal phenomenon in an inflation and hyperinflation cycle.  On April 15, some talking heads pretend the US has fallen into Deflation, and the UK is to follow. This happens because they do not understand what Inflation, Deflation, and Hyperinflation is.

Important is to UNDERSTAND a hyperinflationary depression sees simultaneously FALLING prices (HOCG) and rising prices (LOCG). [HOCG = High order capital goods (ex. Real Estate) - LOCG = Low Order Consumer Goods (ex. energy and food).

The most challenging concept for the professional public to understand is that hyperinflation can exist along with a totally disastrous economic environment. Hyperinflation falls flat because it fails to consider the infinite velocity of money that a Weimar creates during a depression economy as a product of throwing monetary discipline at the wall.

Prices = Money Supply x  Velocity of the money

Basically, there are 3 inflation fazes:

  1. In the first phase, as goods and services cost increase, people spend less. They save because they 'think' prices will come down again. The velocity (the speed money is spent) decreases. Such a situation is possible because of the ignorance of people trusting the authorities. (Today, people hardly can save more   there is too much debt!)
  2. In the second phase, people recognize Inflation. After some denial, they start to become aware that the cost of goods and services won't come down again. Velocity goes up again.
  3. As soon as people understand that the cost of goods and services will continue to go up, they lose faith in Fiat Money and prefer to hold goods instead of op paper money (Gresham's law). Velocity increases dramatically. We have runaway hyperinflation.

  • The expansion of the Money Supply in the Western world has been explosive [this is the least one can say]. Yesterday the G20 agreed to expand it by another 5 TRILLION dollars. Contrary to the 1930s (Great Depression)  in the USA, the opposite happened. Only Germany did the same what they are doing today, and the policy resulted in the Weimar Hyperinflation.
  • The lesson?  whatever the authorities do, once the economy and the financial system have been violated (and it has), it snaps. It does so because the system becomes more unstable. It starts to rock more and more until something snaps, and it crashes.
  • NO FINANCIAL SYSTEM has survived FRACTIONAL RESERVE BANKING (usury) and the creation of FIAT PAPER MONEY out of thin air EVER. Such a thing is simply impossible.
  • Hyperinflation ALSO results in parabolic rising stock markets (Zimbabwe) as people apply Gresham's law: the bad money chases the good and exchanges Fiat paper for Equities which are participations in REAL ASSETS.


The velocity of Money is still negative. Hyperinflation will start once this trend reverses.... as it did in Argentina.

To stop inflation, they should stop Fractional Reserve Banking and the creation of Fiat Money.

Argentine alert as inflation specter stalks half the world

In the 1990s, Argentina was Latin America's star. How did it become a basket case? For now, politicians and banks are the scapegoats. Several politicians have been beaten up and abused on the street.
