Trillion-dollar bailouts are outlandishly bullish for gold

CCN/W.E. Messamore/4-7-2020

“In the truest sense of the word, this is a radical experiment in monetary expansion. But history is clear on what this experiment will mean for gold. What the Federal Reserve is doing now dwarfs the last radical monetary experiment in 2008. Back then the Fed’s interventions tripled the money supply in three years from Aug 2008 to Aug 2011. That sent gold prices on a parabolic trajectory, doubling the market value of gold in three years. History is repeating itself, but with greater speed and magnitude.”

USAGOLD note:  Actually, gold more than tripled from the first signs of a financial crisis in late 2007 to the peak in September 2011, as shown in the chart below.  It is interesting to note that the three factors with the most influence on the price of gold in that period were (a) worries over disinflationary risks to the financial system, (b) the fear of a recession, and (c) the prospect of future inflation.

Ray Dalio thinks ‘cash is trash’ as the printing presses roll

Bloomberg/Nathan Crooks/4-7-2020

photo of $100 bills rolling off the printing press at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing“Ray Dalio thinks there are better assets to hold than cash as central banks print money and keep interest rates low in response to the coronavirus pandemic.”

USAGOLD note:  Dalio has consistently recommended gold ownership  for the citizenry as has his firm, Bridgewater Associates. The link takes you to Dalio’s latest thoughts on the crisis, the value of the dollar, and what he sees as the “era of the most massive MP3/helicopter money monetary stimulation since WWII.” Hence the summation:  Cash is trash.

Inflation and deflation: Keep your portfolio safe

Investopedia/Lisa Smith

“Sometimes it’s hard to tell whether inflation or deflation is the bigger threat. When you can’t tell what to do, plan for both. A diversified portfolio that includes allocation to investments that fare well during inflationary periods and investments that fare well during deflationary periods can provide a measure of protection regardless of what happens in the economy.”

USAGOLD note: A gold diversification can go a long way in protecting against either or both and all the hybrids in between.

Please see: Black Swans, Yellow Gold – How gold performs during periods of deflation, chronic disinflation, runaway stagflation and hyperinflation.

Reeling world economy slammed by dangerous disinflationary shock

Bloomberg/Rich Miller and Enda Curran

“The sinking global economy is suffering through a colossal disinflationary shock that could briefly push it into dangerous deflation territory for the first time in decades.”

USAGOLD note:  The gravitational pull of disinflation was a constant in the economy even before the coronavirus.  Now it is fully asserting itself according to this Bloomberg article – at least in the short term.  Debt becomes an enormous weight under such conditions with threats to the stability of the financial system multiplying accordingly. The last crisis was essentially a disinflationary breakdown.  Gold rose to the occasion:
