The Chart That Keeps Ben Bernanke Up At Night
What changed in the last 30 days? Did the world just wake up to the idea that the only way out of this quagmire is a twisted currency war that appears to have re-ignited thanks to Abe's efforts? Something appears to have snapped in the American psyche as the last 30 days have seen the largest physical gold sales on record. Between the search volume for 'bulk ammo' and this, we fear something is afoot and while Congress fiddles as our economy burns, Bernanke going 'back to work' is perhaps what the physical 'horders' are thinking... or maybe they understand, as we noted here, that just as Kyle Bass has confirmed previously, Paper Gold is just like allocated, unambiguously owned physical bullion... until it’s not.

I thought the collection of naked Blankfein pictures were what kept Ben awake
Nekkid Lloyd covered in oil and encrusted with gold dust. - Nightmare on Liberty Street
When Kyle Bass was taking possesion of the University of Texas' gold from COMEX, he apparently asked the guy if many people were taking possesion. The guy said no, never more than 1%. Bass then asked what would happen if say 4% took possesion, and the guy said, ''price will take care of it''. Bass said thanks and took the gold.
Its all about knowing what is going on in the world today.
There is so much uncertainy going around at this moment, Hard assets, anything to protect ones wealth is the key.

Let's give a shout out to another precious metal that is soaring in bullet form:
------------------------LEAD------------------------------
We will need lots cause the fed agencies also just stocked up. They are the cocksuckers who will come for your gold.
Spray paint the lead gold and when they demand it;
give it to them.
Honestly, aren't they merely uniformed thieves at that point?
"the last 30 days have seen the largest physical gold sales on record"
pfft.
channel stuffing.
authorized purchasers are loaded up to the gills with it.
nobody's buying.
I'll take unleaded over gold anyday. Ask yourself, how many gold coins would I give for 20 gallons of gas when there was none? 50-100 baggers will be normal for gas scalping.
I always have 150 gallons on hand
Time to mint tungsten gold / lead silver coins?
Nice try but the only thing that keeps thebernak up at night is how to keep his criminal bankster bosses out of jail.
Check your local laws. Most people don't know it's illegal to store that much gasoline without a special permit. NYC for example has a 2.5 gallon limit.
U also need a permit in NY to own a dog but who the hell wants a politician on a leash?

Prudence is key, I don't store more that 50 gals in one spot. Outdoors and shaded. Worst thing to happen to me is my insurance won't pay. Big deal, doing a turn the house over to the bank anyway next year. Get this shadow inventory moving.
My pool is empty was thinking of putting it in the bottom of that, hellova bon fire if that goes. Marshmellows for everyone !
We can still get gold.... but....gold American Eagles are getting tight. Last month was a record sales month thanks to the elcection of BO. Last weeks sales were off the charts and we had almost no people selling product to us. Product looks like it will get tighter this month!

How do you think premiums will look like for gold in the near to mid future?
The premiums will go up for sure. Gold eagles go up 1/2% when the supply gets tight. Silver premiums will go up by at least 1% on silver eagles as demand picks up. The sheeple who will rush in last will of course and pay the highest premiums, that is if they can get any product in size at that time.
..and that's when he jumped on they guy's back and proclaimed 'It's me, it's me, it's Ernest T.' And all was good with the world.
I see there are lots of thumbs up. But the comex guy is right. Price will take care of it. It could be $3000, it could be $10,000, but price will take care of it. There will be no gold currency- that is pure lunacy and fantasy.
WTF do you know that no one else does?
If gold gets above $5000/oz. nominal, people will start digging up graves. making it an official currency/standard would be the worst thing the government could do.
*I am a sound money guy. I think gold has lots of value, for lots of different reasons. It is not a barbaric relic. Like minds should use it as means of exchange for other goods and services. It could even be part of a basket of commodities, or a competing currency on its own. IT should just never, ever be instituted as an official currency in the USA.
Zombie apocalypse bitchez!!
WOW, now that is a serious spike in sales? Are the lemmings finally waking up?
Five Most Common Gold and Silver Mistakes. Free eBook.
Oh for fuck sake go to the source page and look at the data. These spikes happen all the time.
The year has been pretty slow and steady for gold sales, if you go to the source page. 2011 had more ups and downs. The data shows some correlation to QEternity and the election.
Still, it's only US mint bullion so I don't think it gives much of an accurate display of overall gold bullion demand.
Our founding fathers defeated the terrorist Redcoats, so too shall it be with Terrorist Bernanke and his minions
You are correct. The post is misleading. Also, it says that the gold sales are the largest on record. And then graph starts at February. But you click the link (US Mint) you see that in January, just one month before the graph starts, the sales were far higher.
Seems Tyler(s) can't resist the urge to make mountains out of molehills as this article does, and showing just the slice of a chart that would appear to support their mountain-making is pretty common.
When <1% moves generate "Oh my god" headlines on ZH, it's the same media hype they poo-poo from MSM.
... and don't get me started on trivial nonsensical articles they post just for page views.
Sure, a site like this needs revenue. But please don't resort to the same tactics MSM uses.
A growing challenge for ZH is lack of substantial news to report. We've had a 4 year education now on uncontrolled govt spending, uncontrolled Fed currency printing, bailouts, QE, hemorrhaging sovereign debt, all that shit. It's not news anymore. Sickening yes, but it's not news anymore.
There's really not much significant stuff to report these days. Fiscal cliff? That's not news, we already know what'll happen.
There really won't be much of anything significant to report until currency collapse happens, where all this is headed.
Please always point it out with a comment when a post is BS. Not everyone has the knowledge/skills to see it.
Actually, the sales from December 2009 dwarf this month's sales (and May of 2010 was significantly higher as well).
Just sayin'...
Yeah, Dec 96 sales were 626,000 ounces vs Nov 2012 sales of 136,500 ounces.
Well, well, "cranky", if you really feel the way you do...
And take the rest of those green arrow pushers with you!!

Why are camel toes almost exclusively found on cougars?

Spot on. I, in my very tiny and not-very-economically-educated-way, have been trying to inject life, through fun, sillyness, a bit of truth and some rampant precognition.
The Baltic Dry Index has been limping along, and just pushed 1k (WHOOHOO!), we all know the score about Greece, the cliff and China's ouput figures, as well as Canada's bubble, Australia's currency ramping (including laughable FUD about making the Aus $ the new currency standard. Hint: look up the way rainfall has shifted in Aus over the last 5 years, it's going to totally fuck the East coast on fresh water supplies - and guess what? All the major centres are over there) and all the other bits of the puzzle.
From point-to-point, we're dealing with a glut of "prepared pap" information, and not much action. Everyone is waiting, so meh. Either ZH grabs some inside intel and just blows it out the door, or we all wait for 21/12/12. I'll give ZH my churn just to keep it going, as it's at least amusing. Here's an idea: ZH is obviously going to suffer from this, so start info-bombing your posts with as much intel (from where-ever you can get it), links and so on that you can add to enriching the local environment.
Sharing is Caring when there's nothing nutritious, and no-one is making money anyhow. What's worse: not sharing intel, or watching the wrong people profit?
[Note: I'm probably going to get rubbed out tonight, and ZH was down earlier. And I don't even eat squid]
Last call from the bar: if I speak no more, think as well of me as you can.

Damn the cynical Hedge culture here (ironic raise of eyebrow)
I'd be ready to send Tyler silver if he makes it member only
I agree with the Cranky-Old Geezer post. Just recent was similar with a small spike in EUR/USD graph, partial graph posted.
I don't read this blog even half as much as i use to do years ago.
Cranky, by Zero Hedge bringing all us here..., that makes Zero Hedge priceless. Anyway, keep up with your great comments Cranky. I always look foward reading them.
This site just sells the fear and the authors are likely practicing the greed all the while. Nothing new in markets. It does provide some good jumping off points for thought and research, however. Over time one sees the bulk of what is put out here is about as credible as world net daily.
cockup
I wouldn't call it cherry-picked data.Looking closer, I consider it a significant increase.
Aside from May of 2010, it's the largest MoM increase going all the back to 2005, and before that 1998.
WITH THE CAVEAT: Ignoring increases from months with sales of less than 20,000 ounces.
THEN: Adjust for Price, and...well, I red-arrowed JBallz in the end.
roll back ten years and you'll see the difference. if you can't, you need to see an ophtalmologist.
Oh for fuck sake go to the source page and look at the data. These spikes happen all the time.
Especially when you are a teenager with a new jar of Vaseline.
If its a reaction to the Obama election, then this spike won't last very long. Anyone surprised by the Obama election leads a pretty sheltered life anyway.
"anyone suprised by the Obama election"
I don't think it was a question of surprise. I think it was waiting for confirmaton. Maybe you didn't notice all the corporations who waited until they knew it was FOUR MORE YEARS to announce widespread layoffs and the conversion of countless jobs to part-time (less than 30 hours/wk) to escape the ObamaCare mandate tax.
Even Hostess waited until the election confirmed their worst fears to Kill The Twinkie. Oh wait, that was probably Sandy.
probably just a few lemmings

Peter North would be jealous
I believe in PMs as a store of wealth and as constitional money, but why do all the skeptical ZH minds immediately assume data/graphs are based on REAL data when the PTB in high places control what data gets released? How easy would it be, if by design, to release data like this to accomplish some end? That is a HUGE jump in AGE sales in a short time, and that information would almost certainly be withheld if there was interest in protecting the dollar (which so many here swear is the case with PM manipulation, myself included). Let's be as skeptical of data which supports our contentions and beliefes as we are with data that suggests we are wrong. If this is true, this demand spike, it is possible it is MUCH higher than what we're being told... of course, the opposite may also be true.
I maintain my position that there is significant data points which suggest that there is FAR more above ground gold than official statistics might suggest... if this is true, what better way to rob the wealth even of those who have sought refuge in what they think is a much scarcer resource than is reality? A final blow to the final resistence against fiat debt notes? When it is made known that far larger gold reserves and the dollar price plummets and all but the strongest of strongest hands bail out back into the FRNs?
Okay, my scenario above is a little bit of a stretch, but take the message behind it as the point of this post.
Even discounting the fabled 'Black Eagle Trust', there almost certainly IS more gold above ground than 'official' estimates:
http://gata.org/node/10625
However... even at the accepted official 170,000 tonnes above gound, there is an annual stock:flow ratio of something like 60:1.
Now, according to a recent ZH article, there is ~85,000 tonnes left in the ground, but ~25% of it is unrecoverable.
So, if we say there could be another ~60,000 tonnes left to be mined, then even at 170,00 tonnes above ground, we're way past 'peak production'... and, if Philip Barton is right and there really are 1,700,000 tonnes, that means there's an even smaller proportion left to be mined....
Burrish! (as General Yamashita might have said)
I don't care how much might be out there yet to be mined.
I care at white price it can be mined.
BigJim - isn't this a false dilemna/red herring though? If it gets to the stage where some CB/govt/agency/whatever/ even starts to suggest that there's 10x more available and/or above ground gold than we think, then what does that say is going on in that moment? The context will be near-SHTF or currency collapse - and who would believe a word of what they said at that point?
The old saw about 'how do you tell if a politician is lying' (ans: their lips move), will be true about their statements about gold by that point (if it isn't now, in the general populace's mind).
sure there could be gobs of 'Black gold' ...except every thoughtful review of that topic I've read says that that contention is BS...anyway Larry Summers seems to believe in the manipulation of the POG to control the dollar's value through Gibson's paradox....control the POG and keep the dollar value (relatively) high...
well said, if I was a deviant central banker it's what I'd do to fleece the sheeple, hard to admit as a stacker though
Huh. China would really be bummed.
@ AU SHUCKS
The scenario you're describing can only happen (if ever) if you own more gold than dollars. At 65% dollars to 35% gold as an example, no matter what happens to the price of gold, you can't loose a lot even if gold drops to half, (highly unlikely). But if gold goes the other direction because of a whiff of high inflation, gold price is going to overshoot exponentially, as it usually does.
I am not sure if many own PM's at this high ratio.

Allow me to preach to the choir: I've not understood why gold hasn't skyrocketed since the election. Not that Romney would have been any different, but Obama's re-election guarantees another 4 years of $1.2+ trillion deficits. In the words of pre-insane Alan Greenspan:
http://constitution.org/mon/greenspan_gold.htm
Lag in gubbermint kleptocrat reporting?
The fiat dollar relationship to gold and silver is absolutely bogus.
It is suppressed and manipulated every which way to Sunday in a paper market that could not possibly be unwound without the paper valuation of physical assets (which they do not have) skyrocketing exponentially.
This means that the present sham of a market cannot act as an actual discounting mechanism.
The “market” discounts a synthetic and suppressed value of real assets that the system needs to maintain in order to keep control and avert chaos.
Their (financial syndicates and political lackeys) policies do not follow GAP, their math does not work in the real world and the fact that they keep secrets and will not force audits, disclosure and public scrutiny is all you need to know..
except for the fact that one day something will discompose their contrived equilibrium.
These numbers are for November right? It would seem then that people HAVE been piling into gold since the election...since these AGEs are coming from a fixed gov't program where they can only raise the price based on spot...I mean, since the gold blanks have already been purchased, AGEs sold from the mint wouldn't drive up the spot price, right?
Allow me to preach to the choir: I've not understood why gold hasn't skyrocketed since the election.
Easy,can u spell M_A_N_I_P_U_L_A_T_I_O_N?............soon they will not be able to manipulate it any longer.

kondratieff wave theory says "before 2020".
There is a sale going on. It isn't advertised.
Water, I think there are several reasons gold does not take off. First, is that there is large expectation that Obama and crew will wreck the economy and return us to recession and deflation. Second, Europe could crash and do the same. Third, as individual countries in Europe begin to default, bond prices in the USA will continue to rise as one of the last safe harbors in the world. All three work against gold.
Gold would rise on expectations of default or monetization of debt. Otherwise, the demand for dollars will stay strong.
That's my take.

hawk nation
These are not the average bear movements.
My read as well. I wish this were the common Joe, but I think what we're really seeing is profit-taking by the well to do being parked into gold.
If you look back at the year-end 2008 data during the collapse, there was a massive jump in gold volume, peaking at 176K ounces in December, and a similar pattern repeated in December '09 -- I think both cases are being driven by reallocation, and this year is no different.
If you look at the annual demand numbers, demand is actually down quite a bit in 2012 v. prior years. Unfortunately I don't think this signals the ponzi unwind is here. But it does show continued ongoing reallocation of savings into AU
Unfortunately, most every common Joe I know is deeply committed to a life of struggle and being lied to. Some of them are wonderful, big hearted people, but lack courage, clarity, or conviction. The US public school system pounded the spirit out of them and they never recovered. Sad...
Are they trying to get cash so they don't go under? Think about it, if they KNEW gold and silver was going to outlast this all and they STILL DID THAT. Omg, they are more F'd up than I thought. They are trying to hang on to every ounce of paper they can, amazing if you think about it. They are going to eat themselves up from the inside out.
This is actually a 2006-7 repeat

You are more right, Hulk, than those here talking about "the average Joe" buying on this spike. Anyone can buy from the primary dealers so I see most of this gold going off-shore. J6P ain't buying... yet. He's broke.
Won't Blythe Masters simply buy and sell GS counterfeit paper gold as always? Ok I think I get it. Since the demand for physical goes up and there is only so much physical gold available the price uncouples from the paper no matter what the paper sells at. Got it.

I am going to start my war on paper and I am asking that you join me. I am going to take a silver 1 oz coing and carry it everywhere I go. When I talk to someone about the coming meltdown I'm going to take it out and put it in their one hand, take a $20 bill out and place it in their other hand, and then ask them what feels like money. Nothing like holding real money to convince people. When you see real money you can identify the fake.
Join the local currency war now!
If you do business with any individuals start using pm's for payment it makes people think
I always tell my clients that I accept gold and silver as payment. "Paper or plastic" are the only responses given.
I would not pay you silver, because then I would need to replace the silver. If we could do away with legal tender laws, and let competing currencies float, I would consider it.
Gresham's law in action.
of course everybody will take 1oz silver over $20 because 1oz of silver is now around $35.
but, how about 1oz silver in one hand and $50 in the other hand? only an idiot would take the silver.
Pseudo Anonym says "but, how about 1oz silver in one hand and $50 in the other hand? only an idiot would take the silver."
well, there's lots of idiots out there...... watch this
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gk5aRIz17fk
that only goes to show i need to get out more often and stop thinking that because i know how much is 1oz of silver, gold, platinum, rhodium; or 1 ton of copper, barrel of oil etc., everybody else does because it's on the stupid teevee dozen times a day. in any case, there goes dr. enginneer's hypothesis. so i just junked dr. engineer.
I'd take the $50 because I could go buy an ounce and a half of silver with it. Funny thing is, I am starting to think of things in terms of silver. So I would look at the ounce in one hand and see an ounce. And the fifty in the other hand won't look like a $50 it will look like an ounce and a half. That's why I would pick the $50.
What you are missing is that 99% of Americans couldn't tell you the value of an ounce of silver within $20. I would be willing to be most people would say around $10...it's kind of scary when you realize how blind everyone is. I think Jimmy Kimmel should hit the streets and test it out (like he did with starbucks coffee).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxlGI4OzeBk&feature=player_embedded
How about paying for cigarettes or coffee with $50 face value 999.9 Maple Leaf 1 ounce Gold coin?
Any takers? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkk2E6ioIrQ
Only an idiot would keep the $50 and not buy more silver with it at the current price.
Silver will be 75 by September. I'll take the silver, not the fifty. With the fifty I have to HOPE I can get the silver & maybe I get ripped off. If I take the silver now all concerns are alleviated.

I'm a currency trader, converted metal bug/ I would not be suprised to see gold at 2300 by the end of April 2013/ no shite
$2300/oz by April, sure. But there will come a day when the $ is an astrix and the real value of gold is known by how many Beamers and Bentleys one oz can buy.
I got your pointe Mr. Hendrix/ The Australian dollar is heavily under valued, "purchasing power" as we speak.
