China Typhoon Stock Market Crash, From the outside looking in

Over the last three years China has done three things. Acquire real assets around the world, from mining to harbours and oil rigs to property. It has bought gold by the ton and stock piled it, not paper GLD certificates but the real thing. Nobody really knows how much gold China really has, and it has gold mines of it’s own. China has paid for all of this in $US dollars, or $USTreasurey Bonds, not in Yuan, and certainly not in gold. The thing is they have got so much of that paper from exports to the USA that they had to do something with it. China has also encouraged their population  to acquire gold and silver, even to the point where ATM machines were installed and people can change their paper money for gold bars the size and width of the most elegant cell phone.

Some people study history and learn from it. Some people study history and delegate it to a shelf called “the past”where it gathers dust. Some people do not study history at all.  If the 20th and early 21st century should have taught anyone anything by now, it is that boom and bust economies rigged and manipulated through the stock exchange and traded at first in pieces of paper with pretty pictures on them or later, numbers on a screen, is an illusion, a monopoly game for the fool hardy. Except for those who either play it to their advantage like Rothschild did at the battle of Waterloo, or  Soros has done often bringing countries to their knees to his financial advantage.

Scarlet O ‘Hara knew what she was doing when she held onto Tara for dear life. Tara was real, the Confederate note was an illusion. The Nuland /Yets “regime” in Kiev also knows this. The coup government under Prorshenko is now selling off  Ukraine farmland to the highest bidder, Monsanto being one. Whilst the Manchurian Candidate  Saakashvili, is selling off Odessa faster than hot dogs at a fun fare for pennies on the dollar. The people of Ukraine are now tenants in their own country. The soil beneath their feet belongs to somebody else and the paper in their hands is worthless. Whatever little wealth they had left is now gone . One of the first things the new owners did was take Kiev’s gold reserves. Ukraine no longer has ownership of their own gold reserves.  Helicopters arrived in the middle of the night and relieved them of it.And still many in the west simply cannot understand why the republics of Donetsk and Lughansk are holding on for dear life and not letting Kiev take over eastern Ukraine.

But back to China. They had a major stock market crash recently, somewhere in the region of over $3 trillion vanished. Some people believe it was Soros at it again, the  Hong Kong Umberella “colour revolution”did not quite go off as planned last year, it was supposed to have had the same outcome as Maiden in Kiev. SOLD! The Chinese being the Chinese have solved their crashing stock market problem. For the next six months.  Nobody is allowed to sell any stock, only buy. The west it in shock. Somebody put a wedge in that dike good and solid.

But the thing is, stock market crash or no stock market crash China and the people of China have in their possession not pieces of paper, or imaginary numbers on a screen, they have gold. And not GLD certificates either. The real thing. Like Scarlett O’Hara they can tell the difference between illusion and reality.

So I suggest that in the next week or so you go and toddle off to your nearest ATM machine. Shove in some monopoly money and click the gold bar icon, then wait for you cell phone size, neat little gold bar to pop out and take it home. Or do it through Internet banking. Swap some of those digits on the screen and get the real thing delivered. At least you will have a bird in the hand when the forest catches alight and all burns down. Because all the Chinese do. If the whole global market crashed tomorrow no problem. They are going to trade in gold. Which probably explains why Shanghai has been hit with a typhoon. You know? The Shanghai gold exchange?   Some people can be so spiteful. Is that what Soros meant by “war with China?” But the Chinese were even prepared for that. Unlike Hurricaine Katrina, they evacuated over 1 million people out of the danger zones. I wonder what Monday will bring? A “Golden”ray of sunshine perhaps?
