Caption Contest: The Four Horsemen Arrive
The four horsemen of the Eurocalypse arrived in Dublin Castle today. If we were the 6 (yes, only 6) tons of official Irish gold holdings, we would be worried. Very worried.
And as a bonus, here is Sudoku Schauble: because forcing sovereign states to sell you their gold at firesale prices is exhausting work.

Oh shit, I forgot: All they got is axes & pitchforks, as their guns got confiscated. /major Sarc.
haha the guy on CNBC just now said people have to stop reading zerohedge and start reading zillow.
Way to to Tyler.
First they ignore you
Then they laugh at you.
Zuck fillow. Every sale is "pending", every price is pumped by $85,000,000,000/month, hope springs eternal every April, let the devils of inflation run rampant.
No shit. Even my "county assessment" of my property is WAY below Zillow's theoretical world of markt-to-fantasy. Perhaps Zillow is just reflecting the book market value the banks are sitting on.
In Queens County, NYC, my tax assessment is actually higher than Zillow's. It's a pissing match of cockamamey valuations. Makes me want to sell tomorrow and keep the cash waiting for bargains to shake out, which I should have done in 2006!!!!
It's just the opposite for mine. Zillow has it near what I paid for it a year and a half ago, but the county values it at 20% more and charges taxes accordingly. The schools would need even more levys if they didn't keep my tax rate artificially high.
Yeah, the gloves are off.

who the fuck is not going out this weekend and buying some phyz? Anyone?
Which dealer can possibly have bought at such a low price to be able to afford to sell?
It is all bullshit.
Who amongst us knows anyone who is selling?
No one would be crazy enough to sell with such a drop.
I just called $1,565 and 29.90 by me.
$1,558 for GE on APMEX. lot more than 1,490. Expect this will get worse...

Dealers will set their own prices, take it or leave it.
Large dealers hedge. They don't actually care what the price does. They already know what they are going to make as soon as they bring in the inventory.
Fonz: Mine arrives from Florida tomorrow. Since I got nothing to do, I'm gonna bink dreer, poke smot, and wait for the mailman.
thank you for a much needed laugh...
By the look on their faces I would assume the Russian mob made off with Cyprus's gold before they got their greedy hands on it. (and by the looks of today dumped the whole lot on the market... )
His High Exaltedness, has decreed that you are to be terminated immediately. You will therefore be taken to the Dune Sea and cast into the pit of Carkoon, the nesting place of the all-powerful Sarlacc. In his belly, you will find a new definition of pain and suffering, as you are slowly digested over a thousand years.
Victims of the almighty Sarlacc: His Excellency hopes that you will die honorably.

Thanks, Valkir, added that blog to my bookmarks.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, for the next few weeks, we will snort our blow off the bellies of Cypriot widows and orphans...and if they aren't readily available, we will lick it off the newly acquired Cypriot gold bars."
We talk about movement of gold a lot, but what about movement of silver? Shouldn't they be connected? And if they aren't, why not?
Yeah, but now they are concerned with gold just to buy it from Cyprus dirt cheap ...
GS shorted it to get a better price, then they call Lil' Un and say " We're done, you can kick off now ....... "
No CB has any. Hence they don't care about it. No sovereign is asking the NY Fed for their silver back. And at 55:1 ratio they won't care about it. Not worth it.

Please get rid of your picture, you ugly motherfucker.
Just imagine what his wife thinks every time she wakes up and sees that raccoon faced fuck next to her
She probably makes him wear a CPAP so he'll be more attractive.
Moar jibberish talk about austerity while continuing to spend like drunken sailors on shore leave.
The real issue is deflation.
Why didn't Draghi want Cyprus' debt, Paul Krugman? Mortgages, business loans, etc. I thought debt was an asset, and gold on deposit a liability?
oh come on you guys just downed it coz of the name but that was funny....
I'm amazed that you're still trying. But who knows? Maybe you're paid for a certain amount of time. Anyway...
I responded back to you a few hours ago after one of your responses to me... Proobably, (and I think you probably wouldn'd have, so you probably didn't) you didn't, so I submit my comment again.
Guy, Wake up and see what is happening to us ALL.
Supporting this current paradigm would be and is unacceptable to any rational person. Can't you see that? (Actually, I KNOW that you can.) You may have assumed that pseudonym with your tongue in your cheek, but I'm certain you're starting to see that this is not something actually sustainable (or all that much fun for you any more, I'm sure), . Your arguments are become weaker and weaker each and every day. Why do I say that? Because the current direction of those that are calling the direction that we are going is less and less rational every day. Stop being a shill for the enemies of good People . Those that see and oppose the current (evil, unsustainable) order are not bad people just because they see and are starting to try to oppose this. Wake up and join us. We can make a Better future.
P.S.
Sorry, but don't even think to ask me for any possible solution. I don't know. I know beyond any doubt that the current paradigm is unsustainable. In fact, my irrational thought that the world would be a much much better place IF every Bankster and Politician in the world was 5000 feet below sea level would not solve the problem.
Who is Dr. Paul Krugman?
"When the looters’ state collapses, deprived of the best of its slaves, when it falls to a level of impotent chaos, like the mystic-ridden nations of the Orient, and dissolves into starving robber gangs fighting to rob one another-when the advocates of the morality of sacrifice perish with their final ideal-then" you will know who is Dr. Paul Krugman.
Isn't it an interesting set of coincidences that GS issues a public sell proclamation on gold yesterday, then gold mysteriously drops 2% in slim pre-market trading on no news, then former Goldmanite Draghi publically instructs a sovereign nation to sell it's gold holdings (LOL!), and even Paul PencilDick Krugman writes a blathering shit paper editorial all about gold, all in about 36 hours. What a coincidence!
500 tons should by them a few days, including the weekend. I have suspicions that is a sovereign to poltician and banker gold distribution program before something really shitty happens.
It certainly seems that way. With the weak close there might even be another takedown in the works for Monday. Apparently there is more than one way to confisticate gold. The bastards are probably using our money to take it down.
They look like four thieves stinking of duplicity
6 tons of Dublin gold being seized by the EU scumkings? I guess that means bearish gold and 600 tons traded on the COMEX monday morning before markets open.

Imagine sitting in the offices of the Cyprus Central Bank. Your country is broke. Your banks are dead. And now you don't even have any gold to guard and Draghi tells you what to do. So what is the point of going to work?
Yeah, well Draghi doesn't care if you and everyone in your country lives or dies, so you've got to start from there.
the irish are funny lot. they are willing to kill each other over a disagreement about a mythical god but allow themselves to be butt raped by a real .gov and bankers. does this mean the irish are closet buggerers?
I think you had better ask a Priest
surely someone, anyone, in Ireland must have the balls to whack these motherfuckers out once and for all.
please...anybody....do the world a favor.
are those the 4 fuckers that stole my bit-coins?
Growing up I was a bit afraid of the Irish. Didn't want to get a beating for pissing one off. Seems like I should have been more afraid of the bogey man.

The Irish should hang these guys, because the Irish wanted to follow Icelands lead; however the threats from London and Brussels forced their leaders to pass legislation against the Irish people's interest. The Irish Banks and Euro leaders have crushed the wonderful people of Ireland.
All your gold are belonging to us bitchez!

Where is Mrs. Lagarde? Under the table?

And whats left of your banks and your f€€€king Guiness and Baily's Irish Creme distilleries. You can kee your starving kids for now. Here are the papers. Sign'em."
Good to see Schauble made it to the Sudoku and Goofy Fucking Sweater convention. I'd really like to see a broader shot of that photo to know just what the hell is going on.

Larry, Curly, Moe and Shimp together again.
What don't you understand about us fucking you? Questions?
Price of gold 3/08, $1,000, price of gold 12/08, $725. 28%+/- price decrease. Price of gold 12/09, $1,200, price of gold 2/10, $1,058, 12%+/- price decrease. Price of gold 9/11, $1,834, price of gold 12/11, $1,531, 17%+/- price decrease. Price of gold 10/12, $1,767, price of gold today, $1,490, 16%+/- price decrease.
Major smackdowns and volitilaty are just part of the environment when owning and investing in PMs so enjoy the ride if you dare as the real game is just getting started. That is, the economic turmoil created from some bad MBS and a couple of poorly run investment banks (LB and BS) will be nothing when compared to the massive rebalancing of global wealth that is occuring from the west (too much consumption and debt) to the east (excessive production and foreign reserves).
If you remember, the Fed's recent efforts were primarily directed at stablizing the poor health of the banking system which to a certain degree, it has achieved. Looking forward, the CB's of the world (along with some governments that still think they have a little power left) are now attempting to address the poor health of soverign countries which is expotentially more problematic than the US banking crisis from 2008-2010.
So the way I look at it, gold is simply correcting and consolidating from its first run (early 2000's through 2012 centered on the banking crisis) to set the table for its next run (centered on the soverign crisis). Just be prepared for a bumpy ride and watch gold smack downs not as a sign of weakness but a leading indicator to bigger and more severe/problematic events forthcoming. TPTB all have inside information which will be used to protect soverign currencies as long as possible as once these fail (in coordination with soverign debt), their ability to govern and control the masses will cease.
My view is very simple. We haven't seen anything yet as the only real constant is that public debt levels, whether on balance sheet or off, continue to accelerate at a rate that is simply unsustainable and will lead to an eventual default. The initial kneejerk reaction based on recent history is for gold so sell off with a flight to perceived "paper" currency quality (i.e., the USD) when any sign of trouble is upon on the market. I suspect this will continue for the near future until, as they say, it doesn't. That is when it will get real interesting, very fast.
two words:
GANG BANG
two little words say at lot
GANG BANG
Ehm... Su do ku...

Dont blame us, The Jews sent us.
" OK, before we begin, can i just remind any remaining Russian compatriots and fellow bankers who didnt receive oiur last communique that you have to (cough) get (cough, cough) out (cough) now ,, where was I?
Oh yes, before we begin, can i just remind everyone that following good progress in Cyprus things are looking better and Ireland is different.
we again join larry, moe, curly and shemp for their lovable brand of boobery. who knows what these guys will wreck this week!
We're here to remind to you that you must continue to see things our way - EMU

The four of them all lined up like a pair of ducks on the water, and no potatohead with the balls to take advantage of the situation.
I am seriously disillusioned with the Irish patriots today.
That second photo just made my whole subscription to ZH worthwhile.

Ewe eF'king muppets, please Ooogle Cyprus.
We'r going to help ewe whether or not ewe want it or need it.
Although we know how the Irish love their gold, I doubt they will let these scumbags take it from them. Ireland has got the ties with the USA, they would be messing with some serious ground here. Why don't they try to fix problems in their own countries first IE Germany, Italy, etc or how about going for the real pot - Spain and Portugal - both much bigger messes with 660 tons.
Gold is kind of a trashy investment anyways. If I was the Irish I sell at the top now while they can.

Don't these jerks have to be in a circle for this?
It's not the Troika: It's the Fourkya.
Don't forget the loose change under the sofa cushions.
hey dr. krugerrand...on the issue of doom and markets. why do i need a financial market to "fix" the price of metals in order to trade gold/silver for a cow, horse or a piece of land. or even to barter for an alternative local currency? try to buy silver (and many gold items) from tulving. very scarce. the relative value of gold and fiat has little to do with the health of an economy (or society). when the time comes gold will be valued by those who are self sufficient because they have the skills like farmers, carpenters, mechanics, weavers, seamstresses...economists, lawyers, bankers: not so much
What do the Irish care? You can't distill and drink gold!
They look like the defense bench at Nuremburg...who too knew the game is up.
Olli Rehn to Dieselboom: "I told you to wear a green tie für die Irrish day today. Where die fuck did you find das sorry assed lime piece of cloth?"
Dieselboom: "Mario chose it for me in Heathrow. He said Obama wore the same one when he was here".
Draghi: "I did not, this was the Plan B tie, I choose two ties. My mother always told me to bring two ties. There was another, a sort of leprauchaun green. Where is it?"
Klaus Regling: "Ahh, I think we left that one in the taxi when we went out last night. Dieselboom was really hammered and had the tie around his head. I can't really remember much after we hit the Shelbourne."
Corleone, Barzini, Tattaglia, and Stracci.
Along with Lucifer the Light Bringer.
Krugman, who slams metals, supported the idiotic idea of a trillion dollar coin. What an idiot.
"Now, how sure are you that there is no Russian money here in Ireland?"
hujel
"Yes we have your stinking pot of gold...all the more reason to waterboard the fucking leprechaun."
"Fee", "Fi","Fo", "Fum". We smell the gold of the Irishmen.
Whether alive or whether dead,
We'll take that gold to line our beds.
Next up, Ireland! It now all makes sense to me. The Comex and the London Metals exchange have been low on Bullion and most likely unable to meet Bullion demand. Goldman Sachs knew what was coming because Mario Monte was put in his position because of his close ties with Goldman. Yesterday out of the blue, without any reasoning Goldman lowered gold prices because they knew exactly what Monte had planned. Monte tell Cyprus that if the want more printed confetti from that whorehouse they had to sell their Gold. That of course made everyone think that Cyprus would dump their Gold for paper as would all of the PIIGS replenishing the Comex and London Metals exchange and possibly the USA need for German Gold. Whenever in doubt, look to Goldman Sachs the most corrupt group of bastards in the world. Amazing how Soros also knew what the plan was to crush Gold and amazing how prepared the Comex was to take Gold down. This was all at the direction on Ben Bernanke the lira of the US cesspool banking system. What an outright disgrace.
Who elected these 4 assholes? Answer- No One, they were appointed by Goldman and other US trash!
