Interesting view

Posting i came across from someone working at large European Bank

US GDP gradually drops from 2000s and never shows positive growth and S&P Index does not show any growth in 2011 if you will recalculate it in Gold. So, if leave EU as it is, most countries have much better credit quality compares to US, it could lead to significant growth of EUR/USD rate and that was so, when EUR has reached 1.50. But now, due outside impacts of rating agencies, escalating of the problems of EU, rushing and nightmare investors by different authorities, this action lets hold relative balance with USD and disguising real weakness of USD. Just think about it 15 trillion debt of US – it never could be pay out, that’s obvious. So, they need to postpone this moment as far as they can by any action.

Partially they are forced by China and Japan who hold large reserves in USD and Treasuries and they do not need that USD loses its value. Significant drop of USD could lead to chain reaction if Japan and China start to spend and sell-off USD. This partially confirmed by Japan action – they start to spend their dollar reserves. Ministry of economy made a directive to invest some part of reserves in economy. That was not happened for a long time previously. I understand that these are just hints and suspicions and we do not have any 100% evidence. Still this issue is worthy to be thought.

its coming. it always has, and always will. hard economic times breed it. its not just the middle east. Europe and the Americas have been known to fire a few shots. its in our dna. we all are the decedents of the murderous and plunders. we are all descendents of kings and slaves. we will as a people, will gnaw on the bones, of our enemies again. nothing new.. rinse wash repeat.
