Bondholder Backlash

Negative bond yields causing longterm investors to rethink their holdings. "Why should someone want to own a five-year bond with a negative interest rate," says Don Coxe chairman of Coxe Advisors LLP in Toronto. Pension funds and other large investors are starting to diversify into gold.

Buffet Buys Metal Casting Business

************************************
Buffet knows the stock market is on shaky ground and he's buying REAL tangible businesses. Is it a coincidence that he's buying a "metal casting (commodity based) company?" I know we can't all invest like Mr. Buffet but we can invest in real tangible assets like precious metals. Take this as a sign of things to come.   BK

Marc Faber: Gold Is Your Best Cash

Nothing is Safer Then Gold

Huffington Post

What I found most appalling in these above mentioned European acts is that not even the depositors with less than a 100.000€ will be safe, as their guarantee funds will be used in bail-in schemes.  LINK...

There is never enough for these people. They will take everything they need until the entire system explodes. Nothing is safe in any institution until the PEOPLE wake up and take ACTION!  BK

We’re not investing in gold. We’re just buying it

Thu Feb 27, 2014

Man and gold are not easily parted. Even as investment gurus made doomsday predictions through much of 2013, consumers gleefully added to their hoard of physical gold. Globally, 1,654 tons of gold were bought as bars and coins and 2,209 tons as jewellery. Overall, purchases of the yellow metal in physical form (and not as paper exchange traded fund units) jumped 21 per cent in 2013.

The World Gold Council reveals that consumption of gold bars and coins was the highest ever in 2013, registering a 28 per cent growth. With gold prices dropping 34 per cent in just nine months, lay buyers made the most of the opportunity. Larger investors in gold ETFs meanwhile sold the equivalent of 881 tons from such funds. The Indian consumer too displayed his/her voracious appetite for gold by continuing to buy, ignoring import curbs, gold-loan restrictions and import duty hikes. Demand for coins and bars recorded a stronger 16 per cent growth, while jewellery demand increased 11 per cent in India.  LINK...

Essentially HALF the world is bullish on gold, when you consider China and India combined! You think these cultures and societies that have been around for thousands of years longer than Western society, knows something we don't?  BK

Pick The Right Tool For The Right Job

Inspired by a post from Jesse's Cafe Ameriain, "pick the right tool for the right job, and remember nothing comes for free." 

I thought this would be a perfect slogan for our U-Vault Account because if you're looking for wealth protection and savings then why leave it with an institution that does not use the right tools for the right job? Savings in a bank account are only as solvent as the insurance company (FDIC or CDIC) backing those savings. Did anyone ever ask WHY there is even limits to these deposit accounts? After all it's cash in the bank, right? NO, it's not; it becomes bank credit the minute you deposit your money. So why can't these deposit insurance companies insure 100% of your money? Because your money is NOT there anymore! The bank took it and loaned it out at multiples of what you deposited. This is called "Fractional Reserve Banking," a great tool for the banks but not for you. 

So if you're looking to protect 100% your savings, whether it's $100K, $500K or Millions, than the U-Vault Account is the right tool for the right job, because there are NO LIMITS to the insurance on the funds in the vault, unlike FDIC and CDIC. How you might ask? NO fractional reserve banking, just your wealth collecting dust in a fully insured vault that you can access anytime. Yes, it sounds boring because it is, but it's also the safest place for your money!  BK

John Williams Says $2,000 Gold Will Be Cheap In The Future

*****************************************
John Williams discusses gold in the last 15 minutes of this great interview. As we have said many times, it's not about gold, it's about protecting your wealth and preserving your purchasing power. Gold at $10,000 is not a pretty picture because a litre of gas might be $100 and a cup of coffee might be $75? It's about owning "hard assets" that maintain their value in a hyper-inflationary environment and eliminating the intermediaries between you and your assets. BK

STAY TUNED for a major announcement coming soon to Central Metals Corp., it has to do with a brand new innovation with currencies and insurance. We can't say much more now, but it will be a one-of-a-kind solution to eliminate currency risk.  BK

Gold vs Silver vs BRK.A vs DJIA

The simple facts:

$100,000.00 invested in the January of 2000 would give you the following as of January 2013.

Year	Gold	Silver	BRK.A	DJIA
2000	$282.00	$5.30	$51,200.00	11522
2013	$1,694.00	$30.90	$145,875.00	13435
YTD Value	$601,370.00	$583,021.00	$284,912.00	$116,603.00

Warren Buffet is with no doubt one of the greatest investors of our time. How could it be that an asset like gold and silver (that just sit there and do nothing) could outperform his stock by so much? As the old saying goes, "Don't Fight the FED."

The fact of the matter is; when Central Banks and governments are determined to expand money and credit, the best strategy is to buy gold and DO NOTHING! Don't trade, don't plan and don't move. Thirteen years of doing nothing, and you would have outperformed the best investment minds in the industry!
