What equilibrium are you talking about? We are talking about why rates can rise by Gov. initiative or rates rise on open markets where the local Gov. doesn't desire it.

What gives Gov issued paper value?

Neither are CDN dollars in US. It's treated like gold, can be exchanged else where for local currency. Utah accepts payments in gold and silver coins. There are a growing number of states that are going this route. FED up with the FED debasing IOUs.

The FED said they will likely keep rates at ZIRP until 2014. Economic conditions in the US indicate a slowing economy.Why are they going to rise? They don't raise the rates when they are in recession or have a slowing economy. So an explanation would be helpful as to why they would rise. What...

Rates rise for 2 reasons. Intended and unintended reasons. Intended rises instigated by central banks cause money velocity to slow. I'll leave the other reason open to cb to explain. It's currently taking place in this melt down, so there are examples.

GS Statement: Goldman maintains “constructive” 6-month forecast, says case for higher prices remains in place. Goldman stands by its forecast for a rally in gold this year, saying that the precious metal will advance to $1,840/oz over six months as the U.S. central bank embarks on a third round...

Really think so? What's different from when Argentina folded and today's financial instruments is the big differance. JPM's losses are a hint.

One of the most flawed economic theories in the history of mankind is Keynesian economics. It doesn't work, never has worked and never will work. You are seeing the idiot’s work being applied today around the unprecedented financial crisis today. The Bernak is a failure. He keeps applying the...

I am curious to understand why folks think that gold will be worth anything if the **** truly hits the fan. I doubt it would be the same market or mindset as years gone by, and if someone offered me gold for my dried out turnip, I would tell them to get bent. Then again, outside the practical...

I certainly don't subscribe to the text books you read. Dumbfukonomics. MSM is now looked upon as the bible of events in order to fool the stupid masses. It works for some, especially those with lazy herd mentality research and with inadequate brain stems. Your comments on interest rates were...

You claim to have taken economics and prize yourself in your convoluted concept that this is an economic cycle? It’s like a 10 year old playing in a sandbox with his Tonka truck explaining to the younger crowd all about heavy equipment. If you were an authority on the subject you would not have...

With interest rates near 0% and with unprecedented government debt and deficit spending beyond sustainable levels there is a clear risk of high inflation or hyperinflation if inflationary (currency cost push) forces are not counterbalanced with a heavy hand. In theory, high inflation or...

You can't eat gold. One of my favorite Sofa King stupid sayings. LMFAO

The monster downside to all the bailouts to prop up the system is the devaluing of the U.S. dollar and the destruction of the credit worthiness of America. There is another downside to the policy of privatizing the profits and socializing the losses, and that is the loss of confidence of...

Vodka is, as it says on the label, a "neutral spirit." There's no aging involved. No oak barrels. But then I am reminded that good branding counts in this world. The brand imagery, billions of dollars, and hype surrounding Grey Goose, Absolut, Ketel One, and of course even Trump Vodka, have...
