CME Group extends “over-the-counter” clearing services to London silver products in move to regain lost market confidence Wednesday July 18, 2012 As reported by Reuters on Tuesday, pending regulatory approval, Chicago-based CME Group will begin on August 6 to offer clearing, settlement, and delivery for over-the-counter (OTC) London silver forward (futures) contracts. This new product line for the U.S. exchange will be an extension of the CME Group’s OTC London gold clearing services which were launched in February. The new clearing services are a last-ditch effort by the Chicago exchange to respond to increasing customer demand for some kind of

Sunday, June 24, 2012 By the SilverBombSquad After a momentary surge in anticipation of the effect announcements from last week’s FOMC meeting would have, the spot silver price has continued slipping from the $48.00 an ounce peak seen last year. This has made many investors leery of possible further losses if the trend should continue. The price of silver seemingly cannot even be discussed without the inevitable use of the “v” word. Over and over we hear it as the central theme of the repetitive “silver prices are volatile” litany, particularly from those who are incorrigibly bearish toward the white

U. S. Dollar to become second-hand currency as Emerging World Economies assert Autonomy By SilverBombSquad, 4/05/2012 Departing World Bank head Robert Zoellick explains that “the goal for China is the internationalization of the Yuan”. Instability in the western developed economies continues to reveal itself in “credit event” aftershocks ranging from the triggering of Greek Credit Default Swaps to the under-reported “stealth” expansion of the USD-denominated monetary supply. Recent U.S.-led economic policies resulting from on-going tensions in the Middle-East have initiated an Eastern emerging nation “taking of sides” with Western sanction-hit Iran. China, Russia, and India are seeking to by-pass “UN”

Posted by SilverBombSquadJim Grant may be revealing more about himself than about any misdirection and manipulation going on over at the Fed (View here). He goes on with the premise than the ones with their hands (or one with his hands) on the levers have swayed from the course plotted by the “Founding Fathers” of the nearly 100 year old institution. Who are these founding fathers? Does he mean the blue-blood sponsor of the Federal Reserve Act Sen. Aldrich whose daughter married John D. Rockefeller? Perhaps he means central banker Paul Warburg, who was funded by the German international financial titan Kuen and Loeb

Posted by SilverBombSquad Which way will it go from here, and what you must do no matter what happens. Recession, Depression, Stagflation, Hyper-inflation…endless arguments abound about what lies around the corner. So, who’s right? All of them are. All of them are right…and wrong. It may not even matter, since the future belongs to those who prepare. Fortunes have been lost, even in the best of times and fortunes have been made, even in the worst. We are already in a Recession that will eventually prove to be far more devastating in scope than the so-called Great depression. Some of

Posted by SilverBombSquad You’re in this for the long haul Timing is everything. It is usually in hindsight, looking back after the fact at some event or other, that it can be clearly seen that when a decision is made or action is taken was as important as what that decision or action was in the first place. Life is an endless string of cause and effect, and the timing of each and every decision made along the way determines the outcome as much as any other factor. Decisions can be premature, or they can be too late. It is

Posted by SilverBombSquad What you need to know before investing in anything Risk versus reward. This is the underlying fundamental dynamic behind every willful decision in life. Every time a choice in direction is made, it is a trade-off between the benefit to be gained and the potential for bad consequences. Disproportionate potential for a negative outcome of a decision can equate to a cost that exceeds whatever reward, or potential reward may have resulted. Alternatively, if the potential for gain is high enough, greater risk becomes more tolerable in trade. Most often, choices that offer the highest potential for

Posted by SilverBombSquad Monetizing the National Debt by rendering it insignificant through inflation. America can never pay back its debt. Unimaginable trillions of Dollars have been loaned into existence, created out of thin air to prop up the banks and the economy. America’s national debt currently stands at 100% or more of GDP, with roughly half of that debt held by foreigners. The days of exporting debt are over, now it’s time to default on it…one way or another. Perhaps Vice-president Dick Cheney was right when he said that deficits don’t matter. In a world where, at least for the
