Best Financial Markets Analysis Article Gold fell for the eight straight session yesterday to have the longest losing streak since June 2006 (silver broke its losing streak). Gold is clearly oversold in the short term and due a bounce. The question is whether the bounce will lead to another challenge of resistance at $1,000/oz sooner than most expect or whether the bounce is a prelude to further weakness which could see gold fall to as low as support between $850/oz and $880/oz.

The global macro remains as supportive as ever with the Bank of England and the ECB set to slash interest rates closer to 0% today and the BoE set to commence quantitative easing.

The unprecedented challenge facing the global financial system is the solvency of large institutions and increasingly of the system itself as the shadow banking system poisons the well. This is leading to a continuing unavailability of credit and this is the challenge rather than the cost of credit. Indebted consumers and businesses’ financial pain may be alleviated in the short term but quantitative easing and printing money could lead to debasement of the world’s leading fiat currencies and to very significant inflation in the coming months.

We live in unprecedented financial and economic times and global macroeconomic and systemic risk is extremely high and set to remain high for the foreseeable future.

The US FED, In Concert with other central banks, manipulates markets

Anyone with eyes to see, ears to hear and the power of observation knows that the FED/Treasury manipulate the commodity markets via their alias traders as well as the rest of the market, especially because they are scared to death they are going to lose their power. They lie, cheat and steal as the cabal they are, in concert with their well placed partners among our elected officials and their appointees, as well as with other central banks.

One cannot turn on either Bloomberg or Fox Business News market reports, streaming in in real time to see evidence of it. Check it out at times during the night at 2:30 through 345, at noon, and around 2:30 before the markets close. You will see the pattern.

When all securities are now in the name of CEDE & CO. as owner, so that the real owner is listed as the BENEFICARY OF CEDE & CO, it is just one computer entry to buy, sell and transfer OUR SECURITIES back and forth anonymously. and sell the securities that belong to US. Notice from my broker of the changes which will cancel out the delivery of certificates of ownership by individuals ceased as of January 2009.

Computer trading is their official method now, as it has been with the futures markets through the various alias entities used to manipulate the metals for a long time.
