How China & Gold Will Shape The Future
Willem Middlekoop, author of The Big Reset – The War On Gold And The Financial Endgame, believes the current international monetary system has entered its last term and is up for a reset. Having predicted the collapse of the real estate market in 2006, (while Ben Bernanke didn't), Middlekoop asks (rhetorically) - can the global credit expansion 'experiment' from 2002 – 2008, which Bernanke completely underestimated, be compared to the global QE 'experiment' from 2008 – present? - the answer is worrisome. In the following presentation he shares his thoughts on the future of the global monetary system; and how gold, the US and China are paramount for its outcome.

Bernanke did not... (stunning!!)
So just how big an underestimation are central bankers making this time with their 'experimentation'...

Yeah, okay. Folks talking their book -- and selling their books. (Yawn....)
Still some pretty good doom-porn fer a Sunday evening's relaxation.
How China and Bitcoin will shape the future.
Bitcoin: God is dead.
God: Bitcoin is dead.
So has the china Gold trading thing started? When does it start? Harvey Organ has put his nut sack out there. My Silver wanted to go for a ride... My boat is sure getting tipsy out here...typing this via my Commodore Vic 20 hooked to a power invertor linked to a car battery using a Vicmodem Model 1600. I have my brick phone taped to the modem....getting glitchy, can you see this? Hello? Is this the correct Bulletin Board System?
awesome...
when he says finance is like super tanker takes 2050 to apply change /reset... he looses me.
we know changes are rarely made overnight.
but thinking we have to wait 35 years at this frequency of events/BS published in MSM ( almost 9 us president run)...
have we all this time before world wide reggae night ?
He kinda sounds like Doctor Strangelove...
same Sunday story. I wish it would just happen already! something big planned after the U.S. election you can just feel it all bottled up and ready to blow. everyone is so up tight.
something big planned after the U.S. election
And the republicans look like they're going to take over pretty easily. Just in time for everything to explode and they receive the blame. Coincidence? I think not.
Lots of folks predicted the housing bubble and there is a guy who writes real estate investment newsletter timed its height to be August, 2006 for California market back in 2005 using his own data model.
I'm joe schmuck the rag man and I figured it out. I sold all my rental properties (all were in Cali) in late 2004-early 2005 and got the hell outta that state. If I can figure it out just using my wits, then this dude ain't no genius.
the big reset straight into harcore totalitarianism
Listen Zero's.
There's not going to be any "BIG RESET", ok? Have you gotten the memo yet?
Consider it delivered.
I agree. If it was going to happen, it would have happened.
The BS that bernake didn't know anything, from the organization that has better secrets then the CIA is rather indredulous.
Listen.
The numbers don't fucking matter. You can kick the can down the road to infinity and endure all types of weather.
The only roadblock that matters is a complete loss of confidence. And that will take at least another 100 years(2 generations) to manifest itself in a "MEANINGFUL" way.
How much confidence do you think China and Russia have in western hegemony? If their position isn't MEANINGFUL, I don't know what is...
Listen.
It's not meaningful. No kick-ass military ready to kill everyone for the full faith and credit.
The USSA will remain #1 global predator until Greater Israel is built, then poof, it will become Haiti.
Lookit.
You need to wait until 2020 to see outsize gains in gold and silver. My metals are sitting cool and safe in the vault, waiting. It's all good to me!
"Listen."
I don't listen, bitch, I read.
Now read this: Go fuck yourself.
LOL, did you read the full transcript of Putins speech last week? in the presence of the leaders of the arab world?
Clearly you havent which such a statement
And how long did it take before the loss of confidence in Weimar?
No military and no backbone? Me tinks you've been eating those mushrooms that grow out of cow patties again... The combined military of Russia and China would wipe their ass with the US volunteer army...
The Afghanistan "Army" didn't do too bad with the US, so I can only imagine what a China/Russia vs the US would look like. Not very pretty for the exceptional ones I would imagine.
The US military does very well in asymetric warfare when air power is supreme.
How it would do in a SAM dominated environment, like Ukraine, is a total unknown.
Their is already a loss of confidence, not just here on ZH but everywhere. Its just that there is no alternative to our current "system". A loss of confidence would infer a panic or move to something else, but we don't have that. Everyone is tied to fiat currency and there is no back door to escape, at least not one that most would consider an alternative. We will keep going to work, keep borrowing and spending...even while believing its all a charade, that it will likely collapse. There are no alternatives left. We are trapped and struggling to maintain enough delusion to keep going is all we have.
The "system" has blessed us with many distractions to allow us to stay in delusion, so I guess we are to set back and enjoy the show. This guy says 2020, Armstrong says 2015 and then back up again. Who the fuck knows? But confidence? I have none other than it will only fail when I least expect it, because that is the way they intend it.
Listen.
You, the Zero's, and others "in the know", underestimate the "POWER" of the sheeple. Their bliss will keep it alive and thriving.
Absolutely, until it has been decided this game is all played out and its time for a new one. There is no doubt in my mind that at some point all of these sovereigns will have to dump their debt. They have already tried inflation and its just not getting it done. SDR's or whatever will be the tool to get this done. There will be no "reset" like so many here have hoped for for years now. No cancelling of debt, no jubilee. Just a currency exchange that devalues the saving of those few left with anything to claim, and given their minority status, no one will give a damn, especially when its the only alternative to massive taxes on dwindling values of incomes and homes. The "people" have no other palatable alternative to delusion. You can't tell me that most Americans don't know its a sham, but they hope and they pray that it holds together a little longer, hoping for the miracle to fix things that inevitably our government/bankers WILL deliver.
This is like a game of monopoly when one player (who is also the bank) owns all the property, the hotels, the utility and the railroad. The rest of the players keep going round and round and losing money, but the bank keeps lending them money so they can keep playing.
Pretty soon the other players quit and go watch TV.
Here is a blind spot: as biflation rages on the real economy degrades. Eventually the disgruntled will reach critical mass and confidence will be lost and paralysis sets in. When? Hard to say. But we are on the path
I think if it is done slowly enough, people will suffer great poverty and indignities relatively peacefully. Its happen many times before and a pretty big percentage of the world already is. At least WE will have he internet to bitch about it, at least until the progressives shut it down for everything other than "constructive" conversations.
Yes: slow degradation is the model. Many examples from the past. Always a chance for a screw up and events can accelerate though
@Bangalore: The sheeple's bliss will last exactly as long as the handouts do. This so called bliss is based on keeping the sheeple ignorant of the increasingly huge disparity between the lifestyle of the elites and their own miserable situations. Impossible with today's technologies. The ponzi scheme crashes before 2017...
And John Williams is sitting tight on this year, even though we only have two months left,
And these moves happen quickly in modern times,it no longer takes two years to messages around
the world.
Oldwood,
Great comment. All the back door are blocked by the banksters. The perfect example is Swiss franc. Anyone who thought that a safe haven got burn when it was pegged to euro. However, I still PMs is THE BACK DOOR which the banksters cannot block. They are blowing a lot of smoke to mask its existence but that door is still open.

100 years?
Of all of the trolls that have infested ZH in recent years, you are both the least credible and the most boring.
Quite a feat.
Disagree. Americans have been conditioned to love and admire our politicians and to put our trust in them. Now go look at the favorability of EITHER party. Americans have already lost all confidence and that turbulence across all segments of the economy (and the world) are birth pangs. Make no mistake, we're giving birth to Bloody Mary's baby.
So, what will happen then? Will the US dollar retain its ability to compete? Will we be starving? Should I buy tobacco to trade, oh Wise One? Seriously, should I?
Lots of losers and a few winners...like always. Only those formatting the game have a clue where to be standing when the shtf. It will be their shit bouncing of the blades into our faces.
Yes you should also stock up on diapers, tampons, and toilet paper, those things will become valuable commodities when SHTF, but you should also just get on with your life as normal.
It could happen in 10 yrs, or it could happen in 100 years after we are long dead
don't just bet on kaboom, hedge some on the slow path deterioation to join the 3rd world too.
this is pure thruth : everu 10 year, global gdp loose 1%.
the period 2010-2020 = 0-0.5% gdp growth.
quite simple, arrived to 2020 = no more global growth , never. from this point, acclimated sheeple, knowing the system can't growth but keep produce, the way is to focus on this famous robotic revolution.
at 2030 when mass see that those cannot handling robots are moneyless, poor, the world will be greatly unstable = africa booming over billion, massive population movement over europ/usa.
2014-2030 = 16 years. usa 2/4 presidents..... shit have serious probability to go south before going to 2030... france shit start 2017.
overall, humanity, to me, do not pass 2050 .
large estimation, but when you raise 2 generation in world poverty, do not expect peace to keep going when 10 guys hungry see one with i_bend_6 on the poket with white ears.
just to say, it is already the case today, i do not ish you to go in parisian metro after 8 pm alone with white earphone. it is just that police , for now, still does its job to protect.
when over half population will go mad, what police can do... enough room in police station ? jails ? i don't think so...
mathematical balance. we are at the edge of the balance. times are unstable.
whatever...memo delivery boy.
Amazing, so many years after the housing market collapse, how many people now take credit for having predicted it. Let me go on record as saying, I also predicted it.
I sort of predicted it.
I looked at a little house, the woman said, "147,000", I said, "shee it, for that chicken coop?"
So yeah, I predicted it.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4cIpAL8UVvE
I wouldn't be surprised if Mr Neumeyer happened to fall into the ball mill.
Of course Bernanke didn't see it. He either had his head in his ass, or was TOLD not to see it, you decide.
If you can't see "the big reset" coming, and getting ever closer, all based on the real facts and trends, then don't come whining to us here at ZH.
Go instead to Brittney Spears or to some other crotch-flashing pop figure to get your 'wisdom' and do your whining. You're just noise here.
None of this shit is going to happen. Stop trying to figure it out and go live.
Study history much?

Hey everybody, I'm from Holland!
Isn't that weird?
Yeah...real weeeiiirrrdd man.
Now, how do you feel about the tribe shooting down MH17 and murdering 189 of your nation's citizens...along with another 111 innoncent civilians?
And what are you doing about it weirdo?
Hey everybody, I'm from Holland!
Isn't that weird?
Kinda is.....
Are they all still going "Dutch"?
What happens if the Chinese acquire all the gold and then the West declares it isn't worrh anything and nobody wants it anymore?
Westerners are stupid like that, you know.
The world will believe whatever they are told to believe if they think it is in their immediate self interest. Few are long term thinkers and most of them that are, are running things, or are in an institution where they know how to deal with people suffering great disappointments.
The ICBM is the new fiat.
To paraphrase uncle Joe Stalin, "And how many ICBMs do the Dutch have?"
Lowlander fucks, at least I don't have to rely upon a series of dykes for security (until Hillary is elected).
I've read thousands of pages of geotechnical reports submitted for construction and maintenance of your dykes, none which have been made public, and I'm not convinced by any. My advice for you is to seek higher ground.
Then you don't know the Dutch.
I must admit that I know the Dutch window dressers, but, as far as construction is concerned, their compliance with bullshit is unparalleled. I thought that Turner was bad on this side of the ocean. But you fucks need not worry, dross materials will serve you as well as you deserve for your sanctimonious litany.
The Dutch refused to stand up and be counted when Shitler rolled in. Instead, you reverted to the faggot-infused KINGDOM that you always have been, you dirty orange bastards.
Arrogant pieces of shit that you are, will Willem-Alexander save you and your commonwealth?
I didn't think so. So, take a stand rather than comply with your masters' whims.
To you House of Orange adherants, go lick Lizzie's twat.
You can include the rest of your BENELUX partners in my rant since they mirror your lead. Yea, dude, we can smoke hash and fuck all the hookers we want, but we don't have means to fight the power since we're willingly disarmed.
Fucking cunts, I have no more time for your hypocritical bullshit.
Stand up or fuck off.
Don't mention MH17
not gonna happen until you see hummer wheels made of 24c gold darling...
Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury....
Whether you wear a tin foil hat or not, don't you find this troubling?
That in November 2005, well before Middlekoop's legendary prediction, THE FED ANNOUNCED IT WAS GOING TO CEASE PUBLISHING M3. To save -- are you ready for it -- money. Do you think they unscrewed half of the overhead light bulbs in their offices?
November 2005 the announcement. Bernanke takes the gavel February 1, 2006. And on March 23, 2006 no more M3 -- and no more figures for repurchase agreements in the money supply.
When the Chairman-in-Waiting had his institution stop publishing M3, don't you think it was for a reason greater than saving money?
Don't you think he knew that some time in the future the Fed would be buying toxic assets from the banks, and it were best if the little people didn't know how much they were spending?
And if he knew the Fed would be buying toxic assets, doesn't that mean he knew the subprime housing bubble was going to burst?
And that means that Yenta ben Shalom knew real estate was going to crash 2005. Some time before Mijnheer Middlekoop.
If it please the court, the defense rests its case.
2020 he says...
If they think they can hold this mess together for 6 more years, they're dumber than they look.
Not sure its "together" now, but it most definitely can and will get worse. I just don't think k there will be many in the streets as long as they still think they have something to lose. Ironically we on ZH being more aware are likely also more fearful AND have the most to lose.
In the year 2525, if man is still alive, if woman can survive ....
altogether now.., in the year 3510.....
strategy of the slow.
human do not radical change. slow moves make it smoother, nicer, gentler.
it also gives us times to prepare and sharp strategies.
This sounds crazy but Musk has just splashed down with "a bunch of shit from the ISS.". That could include a couple tons of gold. Oh, and...the air force space plane just landed after two years of mototring around " out there." That could be another twenty billion.
Forget cost (coughcough 1/10th of what everyone else is paying) this shit is bringing back MOULLAH. "with a plan to bring back a whole lot more."
In 1948, Henry Kissinger, a 23-year-old American intelligence officer, recruited Nazi expatriates to serve in top positions in American military, aerospace, and biological science and medicine. Twenty years later, he left Harvard’s esteemed faculty and resigned a lucrative position as Nelson Rockefeller’s foreign policy attache’ to become President Nixon’s closest advisor and director of the National Security Council. Seeking alternatives to tactical nuclear weapons to bolster America’s “diplomacy” abroad, the paranoid and egomaniacal Kissinger quickly ordered the Army’s Chief of Staff to requisition $10 million from Congress for the development and testing of EBOLA & AIDS-like viruses. Within ten years, the AIDS and Ebola epidemics erupted coincidentally in the regions of Africa ravaged by CIA military covert operations also ordered by Kissinger.
In 1984, Dr. Robert Gallo, of the National Cancer Institute, claimed credit for discovering the AIDS virus. He announced it most likely originated from a monkey virus which spontaneously mutated and naturally jumped species. Dr. Gallo was a biological weapons contractor for the CIA’s top secret “Project: MKNAOMI,” and was paid to produce and test EBOLA, AIDS-like viruses as early as 1970.

China to help map Guyana's mineral resources
Guyana has asked China to help map its gold, diamond and other geological resources, a top official said Sunday.
http://news.yahoo.com/china-help-map-guyanas-mineral-resources-200108731--finance.html;_ylt=AwrTWf2m6k1UXQgAEL_QtDMD
Discovered a funny mistake on a website. This Swiss website www.finanzen.ch shows "real time indicators" provided by UBS (other financial data from Europe delayed by 15 minutes). Just now I checked and this is what it shows on gold (time stamp 22:00 CET):
Gold 12'300'000.00, up 1'001'324.8%
Where can I sell a kilo?
See some of the Best Bullion Market news @ http://goo.gl/RST8ca
The race to the top, aided by the currency race to the bottom, will be won by either Adolf Merkel or Adolf Putin
My money's on Putin
Merkel's lacking the ballistics
Remember when Germany demanded to have its gold repatriated and then agreed to only see its gold in the U.S. before full repatriation in 2020?
U.S. liquidity problems became obvious in 2013, when the Federal Reserve rejected German auditors who had come to audit Germany’s gold (http://nsnbc.me/2013/04/18/federal-reserve-refuses-to-submit-to-an-audit-of-germanys-gold-held-in-u-s-vaults-2/) reserves in the United States. In 2013, Germany, like many others, began hedging against the expected economic crash by attempting to repatriate the lion share of its gold reserves. The German Federal Bank ( http://nsnbc.me/?s=Deutsche+Bundesbank ) and the government responded to the rejection by demanding the repatriation of the German gold from the U.S. to Germany. The U.S. responded by informing Germany that it only could deliver the gold back in portions, final delivery by 2020. The U.S. has since begun delivering portions, but informed the German Federal Bank that it had to smelt the bars (http://nsnbc.me/2013/07/31/mystery-about-germany%C2%B4s-gold-in-the-us-solved/ ) before delivery. The gold bars Germany has since received could, in other words, not be identified by the serial numbers. The re-refinement process also removed the chemical fingerprint by which the gold otherwise could have been identified as being the gold Germany had deposited in the United States. It could, in other words, just as well have received gold that was stolen from Libya in 2011.An ironic article, entitled “Germany’s Gold and the Fed for Dummies (http://nsnbc.me/2014/01/16/germanys-gold-fed-dummies/ ) ” describes the situation by using an allegory. A biker mugs the owner of a Ferrari, crushes his bones, then steals the car, saying, “look how dangerous the world is, let me take care of that beautiful Ferrari for you”. When the owner has recovered and asks to get his car back he’s first rejected. After that, he’s allowed to see the engine, without serial number, then a steering wheel, and at the end he gets back spare parts which may, or may not come from his car. Final part plus car key to be delivered in seven years.Many analysts note that the U.S. sold off most of the gold it was supposed to keep in store for other nations. The theft could be covered up as long as it was possible to maintain the status quo of the failing Bretton Woods system.
Not true, not true, jewish folks are the best people to safekeep your gold bullion!!!
It is my understanding that Germany would only get approximately 1/4 of their gold back by 2020,not all of it. Something like 700 tonnes of the 3000 they are owed. I'm not certain about the figures. I also believe last year they only received 5 tonnes.
"German" Gold ?
1945..............
As long as the clown Feds keep on inflating the market with another QE, we'll go on forever with this.
Albeit it's gonna get pricer to continue.
It is very clear the US does not have ANY gold of its own or that entrusted to it by other countries.
It has sold/given away.....lost forever all the gold. There is NONE.
Germany should be saying OK.....I want it, buy it on the market now.
But Germany is pretty much the fuck-doll of the USA as is the UK....and will suck off Obama before demanding the gold.
Not so sure about that, Kina, that Germany is the fuck-doll of the USA. Wait until Germans are freezing and their industries shut down thanks to no Russian fuel and you'll see some serious re-do's. We've already seen the 20th century's versions of pissed off Germans who don't mind suiting up for a nasty fight.
Reset + gold standard = bullshit when the same characters who brought us to this point are simply resetting themselves. The only meaningful reset will happen when the likes of the IMF and BIS are shoved up the asses of the private central bankers on their way to the gallows. Now that would be a reset!
these know it all pretend academics sound like fucking morons when they predict silver going to 50 to 70 dollars in the next two years.
muinute 26 of the bottom most video he starts predicting a timeline of gold and silver for the next few years tripling . or more.
ridiculous. and when their timing is off, THEY ALWAYS say they were right in the long run. yea, so is everyone....
.
It's Willem Middelkoop not Middlekoop.
