USDCNY Closes At 5 Year Low Of 6.7970, As Gold Hits Another Record High Of $1,263

Even as investors increasingly sniff at the possibility of the CNY becoming the new reserve currency, buying up the Yuan with both hands, resulting in a provisional close of 6.7970, the highest since the 2005 revaluation, and even as algos cheer this move in the futures market, gold hits another all time record of $1,263. For full implications of what buying both stocks and gold at the same time, we refer you to the previously published essay by Don Coxe, but in a nutshell, it is a rather bad omen, when stock appreciation is being hedged for complete systemic failure. In the meantime, China's UST holdings just depreciated by a few billion in FX adjusted terms, and the end of the USD accumulation, as well as its negative trade balance, means that the country will now be a second-rate player in the Treasury market. We really hope the frontrunning algos have it right this time.

Hmm lets see, any time the futures were down 1% or more, Rule 48 was in place.

Now on the flip side? Of course not. Everything's green, all is well.

Ever notice the Gordon Liddy gold commercial still says," And our 10 trillion dollar debt"? Are they just too cheap to make a new voice over?

The thing that confounds me is how the PM bears, prominent among them -- Jon Nadler, continue to talk down gold as it continues to move in a long-term secular bull trend.

 

Whether it was at $400, or $600, or $800, or $1000, or $1200 . . . it was always "overvalued". Who listens to these guys anymore?

 

With their batting average of .000, why does any media outlet give them even a 10-second platform any more????

Clue me...................

Has Timmmmay, lost his mind?.

Why would the US Gv't be happy about the Yuan reval?.

They think it will help the trade export imbalance?.

It may, but the USD's /Treasuries/Bonds coming back, seems to way overide that benefit.
