How to buy physical GOLD?

In these troubled economic times, Gold bullion will continue to be a great investment .Zaman Monirez, president of the Bullion Mart, on the ins and outs of investing in physical gold. You are rightfully worried about inflation eating up your hard-earned savings, the stock market malaise, and the deflation in the housing bubble crushing your home value. Buying physical gold is an excellent hedge against inflation, and against almost any type of crisis. You won’t find a single fiat currency throughout human history that has stood the test of time – all of them went to their intrinsic value zero. Gold on the other hand is the ultimate form of money, because it cannot be destroyed. An unprecedented shortage of physical metal currently exists in the popular gold and silver bullion markets. Premiums, the amount paid and charged by bullion dealers over the current spot or cash price, are at the highest levels since at least 1980, and possibly the highest ever seen for popular gold and silver bullion coins and bars.

That’s the bad news. People want gold and silver badly. They are willing to pay much more than the spot price, but they can’t find bullion to buy. They can’t find it because there isn’t enough physical metal available at these drastic, artificially induced, fear and fund-liquidation-caused spot prices.

Gold to Hold Steady: Analyst

In the short-term, gold will stay in the $925-960 range, where it has been holding steady for the past few months, according to Philip Newman of GFMS. “The key factor really is where we see investment demand in the gold market?” he told CNBC Tuesday.
Today Gold for immediate delivery climbed 0.4 percent to $941.42 an ounce at 9:40 a.m. in Singapore. The metal is up 6.7 percent this year as longer-term inflationary expectations boosted demand for a hedge against accelerating consumer prices. Gold futures for August delivery were little changed at $941.30 an ounce on the New York Mercantile Exchange’s Comex division, up 1.8 percent this quarter.

Bob Chapman Worldwide Depression: Review of Global Markets

Bob Chapman
Infowars
June 30, 2009

As you have already seen this is a worldwide depression and no one will escape. Europe’s economy is already in a shambles as is the US economy. Inflation will rage all over the world, because every nation has created massive amounts of money and credit as demanded by US and British elitists. They have all overmedicated the patient. As the Broadway hit play of many years ago told us, we are going to have to go through a “Period of Adjustment.” Some nations will get off easier than others. There will be no decoupling and many nations could have revolutions.
Government spending and increased debt has been taken on by all countries and to in part pay for that taxes will rise everywhere. Deficits will hit records as far as the eye can see. You can’t have massive spending, massive debt and massive tax increases and expect to have growth. It is impossible.

Thus far government has been able to paper over the systemic meltdown in the financial area. They still haven’t dealt with off balance sheet and derivative losses. Even with the trillions poured into these entities it has not been enough to solve their problems and over the next few years that will become obvious.

The Treasury plans of having the fox, the Fed, take over the chicken coop is pure insanity. These are the very people who caused the problem by encouraging mis-rating, securitization and lending that defied reality. Now the Fed is to become policeman. It is really insulting and removes any sense of security from the system.
The problem of protecting consumers lies in the hands of the Fed, raters, lenders and Wall Street. Greed overcame any semblance of prudence.

The Treasury, as stated under the Constitution, should have the authority to solve financial crisis, but they cannot because the Fed has the tools to do so. Those tools have to be put in the hands of the Treasury again. It is not a cure all, but it is a step forward. That has to be accompanied by ending the revolving door between banking, Wall Street and the positions appointed in Washington, especially the Treasury.

Giving the Fed more powers to regulate is not addressing the underlying problem and shifting private debt into public debt isn’t an answer either. The main cause of the problem is leverage, securitization, and globalization and the massive use of derivatives. Free trade and globalization are the worst and have caused wage-price imbalance and stripping America of its ability to compete.

The advantages all accrue to transnational conglomerates and third world nations. This enriches the rich and takes the living standards in the US, Canada and Europe down to the levels of the third world.

Why would our president want the Fed to have day-to-day supervision over the largest bank holding companies, which own the Fed? This is the group that caused all these failures. The Fed would have a financial empire that would allow them to engage in greater corruption. It would control a financial colossus.

Then the FDIC would receive more powers to wind down whatever banks they decided would be eliminated. If large banks can be bailed out, why can’t small banks receive equal treatment? That is because the big banks want to absorb the small and medium-sized banks eventually leaving us with 20 with a monopoly in banking. This is where this is headed. We are also told many more banks have gone under than we’ve been told about. Insiders expect 500 to 800 will go under this year, not the publicly announced 35 or 45.

Thus, the Fed and the FDIC are to be rewarded for failure. They didn’t use their regulatory powers over banks in mortgage lending, rating and securitization.
The plan of the administration is a copy of the Paulson plan to concentrate more power with the Fed. They have eliminated the Office of Thrift Supervision and merged it with the Comptroller of the Currency.

They previously proposed a merger of the CFTC and SEC, which isn’t about to happen.

The litany goes on and American waits for the other shoe to drop as it falls deeper into depression. As you can see this is a struggle to give the Fed total financial control over America. It can only end in disaster.

The Fed may revamp the repo market for they fear existing arrangements could put the clearing banks in a difficult position in a crisis. As securities’ values fall, clearing banks have to demand more capital or collateral to avoid losses. In that process they could destabilize the market. Positions of investment banks are so large that a default could be fatal. The solution, of course, is that the Fed takes over the defaulted positions to keep its monopoly in tact. The two banks at great risk are JPMorgan Chase and Bank of NY Mellon, both shareholders in the Fed.

A quarter of US employers have eliminated matching contributions to employee 401(k) retirement plans since September. Most say it is temporary, but we don’t believe it.

If exports don’t pick up soon the IMF says the dollar will need to be devalued.

JPMorgan Chase & Co. is raising some balance-transfer fees on credit cards to 5 percent, the highest among the nation’s largest banks, citing increasing regulations and costs after the United States put new curbs on the industry.

The lender starts charging more in August, just as the law to curb interest-rate increases, fees, and marketing practices begins to take effect.

The credit card law President Obama signed May 22 prompted warnings from industry executives that they’d be forced to raise fees, curtail credit, and restrict consumer rewards programs. Congress heard testimony yesterday on Obama’s proposed Consumer Financial Protection Agency, which would have authority over increases like the boost JPMorgan is planning, said the chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, Barney Frank.

Bob Chapman : The Fed is the Ultimate Zombie

Bob Chapman In his latest article entitled The Fed is the Ultimate Zombie the International forecaster says that we have been on a road of inflation, headed towards hyperinflation, for quite some time.

"As this debacle transpires, everyone owning dollar-denominated assets will be running for the exits, all the dollars parked in foreign currency reserves will be repatriated, and the currency speculators will go to town as the Fed pumps out money in ever-increasing quantities to fund bailout after totally illegal and disgusting bailout. This will mark the start of the period during which the Much Greater Depression will be at its most severe level, and is where will we be Weimarized. You won’t know about the foreign investment until it is too late because, conveniently, like the cessation of M3 statistics by the Fed, the FTC no longer provides figures regarding foreign investment in the US."

The Housing Crisis , How it all started

Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland Proposal for Breaking the Housing Crisis Cycle: Unless we attack the housing crisis cycle at multiple points, theres a chance our efforts will fall short.

If we only focus on delinquencies and foreclosures, and fail to address the problem of what to do with the excess of homes on the market, we wont break the cycle.

The focus should be on a set of coordinated, long-term policies that target multiple points in the housing crisis cycle.

Loan modifications. We believe in compensating mortgage servicers who modify loans to keep people in their homes. We also think we should look at temporarily shielding lenders from investor lawsuits that might be filed as a result of their loan modification efforts.

President Obama on Friday said the global warming bill the House is debating today is only a start, not the end of efforts to control greenhouse gas emissions.

The president, after a meeting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, also said he remains concerned about post-election violence in Iran, but did not go as far as Mrs. Merkel, who said the international community must help to identify victims who were beaten, arrested or killed by the Iranian government.

And the president said that even with attacks growing ahead of Tuesdays deadline for U.S. troops to leave Iraqi cities, President Obama said the security situation there remains dramatically improved and the key problem is political reconciliation, not violence.

Australian Dollar Climbs on Yield Demand; kiwi dollar Weakens on GDP

By Garfield Reynolds and Theresa Barraclough

June 26 (Bloomberg) -- Australia’s dollar rose for a fourth day as stocks climbed on speculation investors will buy higher- yielding assets amid signs of a global recovery. New Zealand’s dollar fell after the country’s economy shrank at a faster pace.

Australia’s dollar strengthened against all of the 16 major currencies as prices rose for gold and oil, the nation’s third- and fourth-most valuable commodity exports. New Zealand’s dollar fell against the greenback and all of the most-traded currencies after the statistics bureau said gross domestic product declined 1 percent last quarter, exceeding the median estimate for a 0.7 percent contraction in a Bloomberg News survey.

“We are seeing higher risk appetite across the board,” said Sharada Selvanathan, a currency strategist at BNP Paribas SA in Hong Kong. “With equity markets remaining stable, investors are happy to put their money into good use. The Aussie will do well.”

Australia’s currency gained 0.5 percent to 80.62 U.S. cents as of 1:31 p.m. in Sydney from yesterday in New York. It climbed 0.4 percent to 77.31 yen. New Zealand’s dollar weakened 0.2 percent to 64.40 U.S. cents and slid 0.2 percent to 61.78 yen.

Benchmark interest rates are 3 percent in Australia and 2.5 percent in New Zealand, compared with 0.1 percent in Japan and as low as zero in the U.S., attracting investors to the South Pacific nations’ assets. The risk in these so-called carry trades is that currency market moves can erase profits.

Australia’s dollar may strengthen to as high as 86 U.S. cents by the end of the third quarter, Selvanathan said.

Oil Rises a Second Day on Shell Pipeline Attack, Equity Gains

By Ben Sharples and Christian Schmollinger

June 26 (Bloomberg) -- Crude oil rose for a second day, trading above $70 a barrel after militants attacked a Royal Dutch Shell Plc pipeline supplying an export terminal in Nigeria, Africa’s largest producer.

The Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta, or MEND, said it disrupted operations at a pipeline supplying Shell’s Bonny terminal. Oil also advanced as U.S. equities gained the most in three weeks and the U.S. dollar declined against the euro.

“The factor supporting oil is the situation in Nigeria, where militants again have claimed to attack oil industry infrastructure,” said David Moore, a commodity strategist with Commonwealth Bank of Australia Ltd. in Sydney. “It seems to have intensified and I suspect it’s something that’s helping keep the oil price at that higher level.”

Crude oil for August delivery rose as much as 54 cents, or 0.8 percent, to $70.77 a barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. It was at $70.61 a barrel at 10:06 a.m. Singapore time.

Yesterday, the contract rose $1.56, or 2.3 percent, to settle at $70.23 a barrel. Oil has gained 1.5 percent this week after falling 3.5 percent last week.

The Nikkei 225 Stock Average climbed 32.21, or 0.3 percent, to 9,828.29 as of 9:05 a.m. in Tokyo.

What are ETFs?

• The secrets you need to know to Trade ETFs Profitably ... BEFORE most investors learn how powerful they really are ...
• How to use ETFs to trade options to multiply your gains ...
• How to avoid losing your money by avoiding the most common ETF investing mistakes ...

ETFs are portfolios of stocks, bonds or in some cases other investments that trade on a stock exchange much the same as a regular stock does.

At the moment, all ETFs are essentially index funds, which is to say they track the performance of a specific stock or bond market index or other benchmark.

The first ETFs to hit the market back in 1993 were SPDRs, or "Spiders," which track the Standard and Poor's 500 index of large-company stocks.

Several years later came "Qubes" (so named because of their QQQQ ticker symbol), which track the 100 largest nonfinancial companies on the Nasdaq. Qubes were all the rage prior to the market's meltdown in early 2000 because of they contained some of the best-known and, at the time, highest-flying tech stocks.

Today, by sifting through the offerings of the Big Kahunas in the ETF market -- State Street Global Advisors, Barclay's Global Fund Advisors and Vanguard -- you'll come across ETFs that track everything from the entire U.S. stock market to various slices of it: large stocks, small stocks, value, growth, energy, tech, utilities, REITs -- virtually any industry or sector of the market.

Looking to invest "Over there"? You'll find ETFs that track developed foreign markets overall, individual countries (Austria, China, Malaysia and the United Kingdom to name a few) or even emerging markets.

Want bonds? You can invest in ETFs that mirror the entire U.S. bond market, the corporate bond market, indexes of short-, intermediate or long-term Treasury bonds and TIPS (Treasury Inflation Protected Securities).

There are even ETFs that track the price of gold, and another in registration designed to track the price of oil, the first steps toward what may be a slew of ETFs for other commodities (Pork Belly ETFs anyone?).

All in all investors can choose from a smorgasbord of about 150 different types of ETFs. Click watch the video bellow for more...

Bob Chapman on Alex Jones Tv 24 june 2009

Bob Chapman The International Forecaster an ex 72 years old secret services agent . He was born in Boston, MA and attended Northeastern University majoring in business management. He spent three years in the U. S. Army Counterintelligence, mostly in Europe. He speaks German and French and is conversant in Spanish. He lived in Europe for six years, off and on, three years in Africa, a year in Canada and a year in the Bahamas.
Mr. Chapman became a stockbroker in 1960 and retired in 1988. For 18 of those years he owned his own brokerage firm. He was probably the largest gold and silver stockbroker in the world during that period. When he retired he had over 6,000 clients.

From 1962 through 1976 he specialized in South African gold shares. He and his family lived in Salisbury, Rhodesia (now Harare, Zimbabwe) and Johannesburg, South Africa from 1970 to 1973. During that time he did a great deal of further study into the South African mining industry.

Mr. Chapman belonged to The Traders Association for 25 years. He did all his own trading. During his South African years some was done directly through Johannesburg, but 95% was done through London brokerage firms. Hence, he has extensive contacts, both in London and on the Continent.

Starting in 1967 Mr. Chapman began writing articles on business, finance, economics and politics having been printed and reprinted over the years in over 200 publications. He owned and wrote the Gary Allen Report, which had 30,000 subscribers. He currently is owner and editor of The International Forecaster, a compendium of information on business, finance, economics and social and political issues worldwide, which reaches 10,000 investors and brokers monthly directly, and parts of his publication are picked up by 60 different websites weekly exposing his ideas to over 10 million investors a week.

In 1976, after the Soweto riots, Mr. Chapman began buying North American shares exclusively for his clients. Up to that point only a handful of American and Canadian issues interested him, due to the high dividends the South African shares had paid out over the years. Between 1976 and 1988 his business surged from 1,000 to 6,000 clients, so the bulk of his business ended up being Vancouver Stock Exchange issues. For this reason he is very conversant with the quality of management, geologists, properties and traders on todays North American scene. He is well known.

From 1976 to present he has spoke and given workshops at over 200 business conferences worldwide, and has been on radio and TV hundreds of times. Until his retirement he was always judged by the attendees to be one of the top three speakers and never once was lower than first in workshops due to his vast knowledge of the mining business and his grasp of worldwide financial markets and political scenes.

In June of 1991, at the request of business associates, and due to retirement boredom, he began writing the International Forecaster.

Crude Oil Falls, Following Stocks Lower, as Dollar Strengthens

Crude oil fell for a second day, following global equities lower, as a stronger dollar reduced the appeal of commodities as an alternative investment.
Prices declined after stocks dropped and the U.S. currency gained against the euro. The stronger currency undermines demand for dollar-priced assets such as oil and gold. Oil futures touched a seven-month high of $70.32 on June 5 after a Labor Department report showed the fewest job losses in eight months.
The fundamentals don’t support these prices, said Michael Fitzpatrick, a vice president for energy at MF Global Ltd. in New York. A stronger dollar takes away one of the supporting factors behind the recent rally.
Crude oil for July delivery fell 35 cents, or 0.5 percent, to settle at $68.09 a barrel at 3:04 p.m. on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Futures are up 53 percent this year.

The Credit Crisis Is Not Over Bob Chapman

The Credit Crisis Is Not Over After 23 Months

Bob Chapman
The International Forecaster
June 18, 2009

The next major move in the stock market will be down. We are seeing the last vestiges of a rally similar to what we saw in 1931. The rally we expected at 6600 up to 8500 will end as soon as all the financial institutions that need to sell what stock is necessary to bolster their balance sheets. Our guess is the rally has been aided in a big way by short covering and the participation of the US government. Those who believe the SEC has stopped naked short selling are sadly mistaken. Markets weaken during the summer as volume dries up during the vacation season. In addition, second quarter earnings will be very disappointing, especially in the financial segment. Unemployment continues to worsen and capacity utilization is at its lowest level in years. Banks continue to cut credit lines and not lend nearly as much as they did before. Citigroup’s earnings should turn down again. They won’t have another $2.7 billion gain or another $400 million mark-to-market fictitious gain. Absent those gains they would have lost $2.8 billion.

The credit crisis certainly isn’t over after 23 months. The credit markets are still very tight and the residential and commercial real estate markets are still in a state of collapse. In the midst of this ongoing fiasco the Fed is monetizing $2.2 trillion in treasuries, Agencies and CDOs, collateralized debt obligation, otherwise known as toxic junk. Our fiscal deficit for this year ended 9/30/09 will be between $2 and $2.5 trillion, followed by more than $2 trillion in 2010.

Times are tough, everywhere and export nations are determined to keep their products cheaply devaluing their currencies.

When all is said and done the Fed will have to remove hundreds of billions in toxic assets from lender balance sheets, get consumers to spend and allow banks to lend again. Ben Bernanke at the Fed would really like to see a lower dollar, to get consumers to spend. But if that happens interest rates will move higher hurting real estate sales. As Ben dreams, unemployment increases adding more downward pressure on home prices, causing lower prices and reducing equity. Congress is pushing to have returned TARP money back to the Treasury and the PPIP program looks like a nonevent, because it could cause insolvencies. Public funds would be used to protect bondholders of mismanaged companies. Ben and Tiny Tim want to reopen securitization markets that caused the problem in the first place. They have to be insane. They want to bring back leverage that caused this monstrous problem we have.

Credit Card defaults rise to record in May in The US

NEW YORK (Reuters) - U.S. credit card defaults rose to record highs in May, with a steep deterioration of Bank of America Corp's lending portfolio, in another sign that consumers remain under severe stress.

Delinquency rates -- an indicator of future credit losses -- fell across the industry, but analysts said the decline was due to a seasonal trend, as consumers used tax refunds to pay back debts, and they expect delinquencies to go up again in coming months.

"I find it hard to believe that it is really a trend. You need to see stabilization in unemployment before you see anything else," said Chris Brendler, an analyst at Stifel Nicolaus. "It is too early to see some kind of improvement."

Bank of America Corp -- the largest U.S. bank -- said its default rate, those loans the company does not expect to be paid back, soared to 12.50 percent in May from 10.47 percent in April.

The bank is paying the price of expanding rapidly in recent years and of holding one of the highest concentrations of subprime borrowers among the top card issuers, analysts said.

In addition, American Express Co , which accounts for nearly a quarter of credit and charge card sales volume in the United States, said its default rate rose to 10.4 percent from 9.90, according to a regulatory filing based on the performance of credit card loans that were securitized.
