Austrian economists have been predicting for years and years that eventually the Fed would be pushing on a string as they put more liquidity into a market that couldn’t absorb it. That may be what’s happening now. It will be very interesting to watch this development going forward.
So says Rick Rule in his latest interview* with Eric King of King World News which also includes his views [see here] on:
the price of gold,
the gold mining market,
insider buying,
Germany’s auditing and repatriation of its gold,
revenue declines from big US companies and
a possible surprise downside in the equity markets.
With the pop from the USFed’s latest attempt at financial shock and awe already seeping from lackluster markets, and the teleprompter news networks losing steam over their promotion of the same, it is time to take a look back at the decisions made on 9/13/2012 and set the record straight on some things.

While the Fed’s third round of quantitative easing is fairly aggressive it is unlikely to have a significant impact on the economy – especially if policymakers in Washington lead us over the fiscal cliff. Where QE3 may have an impact, however, is in the commodities market, and in particular gold. Here’s why. Words: 400
QE3 looks like a desperate act to feed money to large banks, offload MBS toxic waste from their balance sheets, devalue the dollar against houses, commodities, and other currencies and create significant collateral damage in the form of consumer price inflation according to a number of respected economists and critical thinkers on the subject of QE3.
