Central banks meeting in secret in Australia
 
Central banks meeting in secret in Australia... it sounds like The Creature From Jekyll Island all over again. Greece, Portugal and Spain et al on the brink. A stock market [the Dow] that wants to die. It appears that the central banks are watching their control of world financial and monetary events slip away... and are in a full panic mode.

From what I can see at this juncture, there are only two possible ways this economic, financial, and monetary situation is going to resolve itself, and they are... a hyper-inflationary depression... or a complete deflationary collapse. Both of which will result in the destruction of most of the world's currencies. But, somewhere along either of those paths, or a combination of the two paths... individually or collectively, the central banks will be forced back into using gold as a convertible currency. When [and notice I didn't say 'if'] that happens, gold will have to be revalued to some fantastically high price. At that moment, the Golden Rule will come into play... He who has the gold, makes the rules!

Then, and only then, will we find out which countries and their respective central banks have gold reserves of any kind... and how much they really have left.

In the interim, things are going to get incredibly ugly. And, without doubt, the world's central banks will resort to anything to prevent 'all of the above' from happening. But it's way too late for that now. And, as Ambrose Evans-Pritchard said in his story from The Telegraph above... the crisis in Greece is now escalating into a "global margin call as confidence ebbs."

These are not just interesting times... they are historic times!
