The Financial Collapse is Coming. Buy Gold Now

“The collapse is coming.”

“Bloodbath.”

“The US economy WILL crash”

“…The dollar, considered the international currency, has become a risky tool for payments.”

These are just a few snippets international financial experts are using to reinforce the message that the US economy and dollar will, soon enough, lose its worth. The national debt, trade wars, unemployment, and foreign investors selling on the American dollar are just a few current factors that could have devastating effects on your greenbacks and leave you looking for different ways to invest.

With the dollar on the decline and precious metals at staggeringly low prices, these factors may have opened a small window where gold and other precious metals can be bought at a discount.

US DEBT EFFECT
As the National debt continues to climb, its effect on the dollar can be drastic. Historical evidence would suggest that high levels of government debt could potentially trigger a sudden collapse in the value of fiat money. With the national debt constantly growing, the fear of an economic collapse is very real and many seem to agree- something is on the verge of happening.

“The huge US debt will destroy the American economy and lead to a global economic collapse, which is just around the corner,” Kim Dotcom, the founder of the now-defunct Hong Kong-based online company Megaupload tweeted on Sunday. He goes on further to say, “Your USD will become worthless. With US economic collapse all old money currencies will crash.” He has previously called the US debt situation “unmanageable” and cannot dig itself out of its own hole with economic growth, new debt or printing more money. If the US dollar does lose its value quickly, it would create hyperinflation within the economy and thus send it into a free fall.

With more and more fears concerning the collapse of the US economy under the massive weight of the national debt, now nearing $21.5 Trillion and adding nearly a trillion more annually, more and more investors are seeing the value of jumping ship from the American dollar and investing into something more tangible- gold.

NEGATIVE MARKET SENTIMENT
Foreign traders and governments are shedding American stocks and bonds while also dropping the dollar, thus weakening it further. The Russian Finance Minister is reported to have said that Russia has significantly reduced their investment in American currency citing the dollar as a “risky tool for payments.” Many fear that if the Chinese government follows Russia’s lead regarding US market sentiment, the American dollar and stock market could spiral.

And the timing seems like it is as good as gold. With gold being at its lowest level in years, big money speculators are perhaps being too negative on gold. The last time the numbers were this low was December 2015, where gold responded with a “monster rally” according to Jim Cramer of Mad Money. Now, gold is at its lowest rate, currently just under $1,200 an ounce and holding steady. According to a Bloomberg report, gold has reached a stable floor with realistic hopes that all signs point to gold rising in the wake of a weakened American dollar and economy. That report recalls gold’s performance in the past, which confirms this speculation. In July 2015, gold bottomed and within two weeks rallied 11 percent. The second such time was in November 2015, and gold bottomed within three weeks before ultimately rallying 32 percent. At these market levels, gold may be bought at a discounted price and could realistically be expected to gain at a steady rate.

TRADE WAR IMPACT ON STOCK MARKET
In a trade war, specifically the conflict the US government is currently experiencing; there are no real winners- it limits economic growth, it raises prices for consumers while also raising costs for businesses. On a global level, this trade war could also have detrimental effects on the stock market and the American dollar.

The stock market is already feeling the effects of the trade war. The Dow slipped in 9 out of 10 sessions in late June while China and the United States traded blows in the form of export tariffs. Jeff Kleintop, Chief Global Investment Strategist for Charles Schwaba cites trade as a “much scarier prospect” than investors might give it credit for at present. “Imports and exports often cancel out as it relates to the economy,” Kleintop said. “But with 50% of the profits of most of the companies in the big indexes being driven by international trade – and that wasn’t true 30 years ago but is today – it does have a really big impact on the stock market…”

George W. Bush imposed similar steel tariffs as Trump (Bush exempted Mexico and Canada from the tariffs) in a recent example of trade war tariffs in March 2002 scheduled to be in effect until 2005. The WTO would later rule against the tariffs two years after they were put into place. These charts illustrate what happened to the dollar index of this specific period.

This is an advertisement to buy gold lol!!

Do you really think gold will save you IF there's a real financial collapse of unprecedented proportions? Gold, like diamonds, isn't even rare to begin with. Its value comes from trust and artificial inflation due to monopolies, it has no practical utility, just like money. No amount of gold will save you if the masses are rioting, starving and desparate because they lost their houses, their jobs and their reasons to live.

The answer is you should invest in people through better infrastructures, access to healthcare and education so you never, ever elect another scumbag as POTUS. Unbridled capitalism leads to totalitarian regimes where everyone loses but the elite.

Blade, you're starting to sound like some right-wing nutter Alex Jones-type conspiracy theorist. Get a grip on yourself (no, not in that way).

"According to the CFTC's CoT data, managed money short positions have outweighed long positions for four weeks now, amounting to a near-record short position. Traditionally, it's the opposite; gold sits in a net long position, meaning managed money longs outnumber shorts. We've only seen this kind of pattern twice, and both times, gold has rallied."

"..this bloodbath is leading to a buying opportunity. The biggest reason for that lies in "commitment of traders" data, which details open interest on futures and options on futures markets each week."


Gold is having an ugly year, but ‘this bloodbath is leading to a buying opportunity’ | CNBC


It's hard out there for a gold bug.

Gold is having a terrible year, losing nearly 8 percent in the last three months and 11 percent from its 2018 high as the U.S. dollar has gained ground against foreign currencies, weighing on the dollar-denominated asset.

But this bloodbath is leading to a buying opportunity. The biggest reason for that lies in "commitment of traders" data, which details open interest on futures and options on futures markets each week.

So bad, it's good
As expected, the herd has chased gold's move lower. Poor market sentiment right now leads me to wonder, if everyone has gotten out of gold, who's left to sell?

According to the CFTC's CoT data, managed money short positions have outweighed long positions for four weeks now, amounting to a near-record short position. Traditionally, it's the opposite; gold sits in a net long position, meaning managed money longs outnumber shorts. We've only seen this kind of pattern twice, and both times, gold has rallied.

The first time was in July 2015. Gold bottomed within two weeks, and rallied 11 percent. The second such time was in November 2015, and gold bottomed within three weeks before ultimately rallying 32 percent.

This signals that gold is creating a bottom near the psychological $1,200 mark. Gold was trading at $1,221.50 per ounce on Monday.
