Peter Schiff on Gold and Silver: Load the Boat and Back Up the Truck

Greg Hunter’s USAWatchdog.com
For anyone who sold physical gold in the current precious metal downturn, money manager Peter Schiff says, “There’s going to be a big problem because the gold they sold on the way down isn’t going to be available on the way back up because the people who own it aren’t going to sell it at any price.

This is the time to load the boat, to back up the truck.”  Schiff is a longtime advocate of precious metals and has taken much criticism in this downturn.  Schiff answers his critics by saying, “The people who are always making fun of me every time there is a pullback are the ones that never bought gold in the first place.

Even though it’s pulled back, it’s still a lot higher than it was when they first started laughing at me for buying gold.”  Talk of a new Fed Chairman to replace Mr. Bernanke will only be bullish for the gold price.

Schiff predicts, “If it’s solely based on which Fed Chairman is the most bullish for gold and silver, I would say that would be Janet Yellen.  No matter who’s put in at the Fed, they are going to keep printing because that’s all they can do.”  Schiff warns, “They’re going to keep printing until we have a currency crisis . . . and that is the most bullish environment for gold.

Economist Caution: Prepare For 'Massive Wealth Destruction'

That’s exactly what many well-respected economists, billionaires, and noted authors are telling you to do — experts such as Marc Faber, Peter Schiff, Donald Trump, and Robert Wiedemer. According to them, we are on the verge of another recession, and this one will be far worse than what we experienced during the last financial crisis.

Marc Faber, the noted Swiss economist and investor, has voiced his concerns for the U.S. economy numerous times during recent media appearances, stating, “I think somewhere down the line we will have a massive wealth destruction. I would say that well-to-do people may lose up to 50 percent of their total wealth.”

When he was asked what sort of odds he put on a global recession happening, the economist famous for his ominous predictions quickly answered . . . “100 percent.”

Faber points out that this bleak outlook stems directly from Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke’s policy decisions, and the continuous printing of new money, referred to as “quantitative easing” in the media.

Faber’s pessimism is matched by well-respected economist and investor Peter Schiff, the CEO of Euro Pacific Capital. Schiff remarks that the stock market collapse we experienced in 2008 “wasn’t the real crash. The real crash is coming.” Read more >>

U.S. Food Inflation Spiraling Out of Control

FORT LEE, N.J., April 22 /PRNewswire/ -- The National Inflation Association today issued the following food inflation alert to its http://inflation.us members:

The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) today released their Producer Price Index (PPI) report for March 2010 and the latest numbers are shocking. Food prices for the month rose by 2.4%, its sixth consecutive monthly increase and the largest jump in over 26 years. NIA believes that a major breakout in food inflation could be imminent, similar to what is currently being experienced in India.

Some of the startling food price increases on a year-over-year basis include, fresh and dry vegetables up 56.1%, fresh fruits and melons up 28.8%, eggs for fresh use up 33.6%, pork up 19.1%, beef and veal up 10.7% and dairy products up 9.7%. On October 30th, 2009, NIA predicted that inflation would appear next in food and agriculture, but we never anticipated that it would spiral so far out of control this quickly.

The PPI foreshadows price increases that will later occur in the retail sector. With U-6 unemployment rising last month to 16.9%, many retailers are currently reluctant to pass along rising prices to consumers, but they will soon be forced to do so if they want to avoid reporting huge losses to shareholders.

Food stamp usage in the U.S. has now increased for 14 consecutive months. There are now 39.4 million Americans on food stamps, up 22.4% from one year ago. The U.S. government is now paying out more to Americans in benefits than it collects in taxes. As food inflation continues to surge, our country will soon have no choice but to cut back on food stamps and other entitlement programs.

Most financial experts in the mainstream media are proclaiming that the recession is over and inflation is not a problem in the U.S. Unfortunately, they fail to realize that rising food and gasoline prices accounted for 58% of February's year-over-year 3.85% rise in retail sales. NIA believes price inflation is beginning to accelerate in many areas of the economy besides food and energy, and all increases in U.S. retail sales this year will be entirely due to inflation.

Jim Rogers: I will sell all US Dollars

Andrew Moran
Digital Journal
Outspoken investor Jim Rogers has warned for many years, like Peter Schiff and Marc Faber, that the United States economy is in total decline and that Asia is the land to put your money.

Co-founder of the Quantum Fund and creator of Rogers International Commodities Index, Jim Rogers, told attendees at the China International Financial Services Conference (CIFSC) held in Guangzhou last week that he will sell all United States dollars, according to People’s Daily Online.

For years now, Rogers has been telling media outlets and investors that he wants to get completely out of the US dollar and put his money in other sound currencies. Rogers went on to say that the last 50 years the US government has taken a dive into astronomical debt and the each administrations continues to make the same mistakes.

Rogers, who is a student of the Austrian School of Economics, has been a bull on China and commodities around the world. In a message he has said for a long time regarding America’s economy and its currency, “[The] US dollar economy has encountered major problems, the dollar index fell to a new low, and it will continue to fall. If the dollar rebounds in the future, I will sell all the U.S. dollars. My whole family has moved to live in Asia.

The story of the United States is over. A new story belongs to China.” For several years, Rogers has urged people to learn to speak Mandarin, “It was smart to invest in Britain in 1807. It was smart to invest in the United States of America in 1907. It is now smart to invest in Asia in 2007.” Right now, Rogers’s youngest daughter is learning mandarin and her caregiver only speaks mandarin to her. At the conference, Rogers did not only talk about the United States but also Europe by stating they go into a vicious cycle of issue bonds – inflation, issue bonds – inflation and so on. “I will not by United States treasury bonds,” Rogers proclaimed, “because the government is constantly printing more banknotes.”

In a jest manner, Rogers believes the US will never lack US dollars. Nevertheless, he will buy oil and minerals and, of course, the stocks of those companies that “engage in a real economy.” Author of “Hot Commodities” and economic commentator thinks the economic downturn in the US is still growing and continuing. At the present time, according to Rogers, there are more people to buy treasury bonds, interest rates will remain low but, eventually, in the long run, will dramatically rise.
