You can see from the chart above that despite the hiccup in 2008-2009, the central planners are determined to continue inflating the
GLOBAL PONZI DEBT SCHEME.

Where does this leave America and really the rest of the Western world whose data will mirror the US?

If the chart below looks INCREASINGLY EXPONENTIAL, that is not a coincidence.

A “Saturated World”
![Page 12: The Return of Depression Economics](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062901/58f0f0621a28ab461e8b45ab/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The global economy is stalling, not withstanding the massive monetary “stimulus” that has been thrown at it by the central banks.
![Page 13: The Return of Depression Economics](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062901/58f0f0621a28ab461e8b45ab/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
As the old adage goes “you get what you pay for” and when the world is offering ‘money’ for free, one can only surmise its worth is
also close to zero…

The War Against Deflation”I’ve said all along that the Fed will not tolerate deflation,
and that it will do whatever it takes to keep the US economy from deflating. On this basis I do not expect the Fed to raise rates this year or next, and it would not surprise me to see
the Fed bring in QE4 or something like it.”
-- Richard Russell

This next chart is not a prediction, but is illustrative of the exponential nature of the next phase transition of Fed monetary
policy.

Historically, actual “HYPERINFLATION”, meaning a currency officially plunging-to-zero, is “a
confidence event.”

If this is the ‘recovery’ just what will the next recession look like?

Global inventories will pile up further and demand will not cut into the surplus until late 2016 at the earliest.

Any realization that the Middle East is suddenly a far more violent powder keg – one which may promptly include the Saudis in any
confrontation – could result in an epic short squeeze.

Gold and silver are safe havens within periods of economic uncertainty. As you know a global financial crash creates economic uncertainty. It is time to GET OUT OF PAPER AND INTO TANGIBLE ASSETS.

The gold shares to gold ratio is now at the bottom side of a 44-year down channel and it’s formed a several decade falling wedge.

Gold Bullion “Extremely Rare”
