About the Author

U.S.: what is the correlation of huge bail out, tsunami of dollars, inflation, and gold ?

Is a huge bail out always resulting in a huge money printing ? Is there any other way to solve the problem without printing money ?

As the US economy slumps, is the latest rise of dollar can be justified or is it similar to the tsunami effect that the world will be flooded by the US dollars later ?

If the world economies are also down and US dollars are printed in a great amount, is gold the only escape ? if yes, why ?

No
Yes
Justified
No
