Bloomberg News

China and Russia plan to start trading in each other's currencies as the world's second-biggest energy consumer and the largest energy supplier seek to diminish the dollar's role in global trade.
China may start trading its currency against the ruble within weeks, three bankers with knowledge of the matter told Bloomberg, and sent out a document last week allowing lenders to apply for ruble trading licenses, one of them said. Russia's Micex Stock Exchange is making...

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
For fearlessness, straightforwardness, and commitment, nobody in the gold world tops Jim Sinclair, the veteran trader and mining executive who runs JSMineSet.com as an financial education forum and, sometimes, as a handholding service for gold bugs at risk of losing their nerve.
Six years ago, as gold had been hovering around $400 for a year, Sinclair offered a great gift to his readers. He made an arrangement with Monex Deposit Co. (http://www.monex.com/) in Newport Beach, Calif., by which his readers could purchase and take delivery of 1-ounce Austrian...

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
In a fascinating essay written exclusively for King World News, Omnis Inc.'s senior vice president for market intelligence, Jim Rickards, says Treasury bonds are the new opium in the West's trade war with China. Perhaps more interesting for GATA supporters, Rickards goes on to concur more explicitly than ever with GATA on gold market manipulation. He writes:
"But there is another way to rebalance the world economy. Simply return the dollar to the gold standard and let the Chinese trade their maturing Treasury obligations for U.S. gold, if they wish, as...

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
In the second part of his new interview with Eric King of King World News, Jim Rickards of research firm Omnis says federal economic "stimulus" destroys wealth and productivity instead of creating it and federal "behavioral" economics has proven to be only propaganda and has destroyed the government's credibility. There's a lot more to the interview and you can listen to it at King World News here:

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold (and Silver):
With his new commentary, "Gold Entering a Virtuous Circle," Egon von Greyerz, founder and managing partner of Matterhorn Asset Management in Zurich, updates the case for the precious metal and says he considers $6,000, $7,000, and $10,000 to be realistic price targets. Von Greyerz writes:
"Gold and gold mining shares were an average of around 25 percent of world financial asset between 1921 and 1981. Today gold and mining shares are only 0.9 percent of world financial assets. If gold and mining shares were to go to 25 percent...

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
Veteran gold market researcher and GATA consultant Dimitri Speck, a partner in the European financial advisory firm Staedel Hanseatic, got 12 minutes Thursday on the German financial news television network DAF to discuss the central bank gold price suppression scheme and his book about it, "Geheime Goldpolitik" -- "Secret Gold Politics." Even those who don't understand German may be fascinated by this interview, since many of the German terms are plain in English as well and since Speck uses a graphic to break down the disposition of Germany's gold reserves...

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
You're not likely to get more compelling, comprehensive, and relevant on Planet Earth for a while than Jim Rickards' interview yesterday with Eric King of King World News. Rickards, senior managing director for market intelligence for research firm Omnis, remarks among other things that:
-- Pervasive government intervention has destroyed the price-discovery function of markets.
-- The stock market provides no useful information anyway because most of the trading is done by computer programs, not real investors.
-- An easy and straightforward mechanism is available to the U.S. government for devaluing the dollar,...

NEW YORK -- Goldman Sachs Group Inc. is shutting its principal-strategies business, a group that makes bets with the firm's own capital, to comply with new U.S. rules aimed at curbing risk, two people with knowledge of the decision said.
Wall Street's most profitable investment bank plans to hold off on announcing the wind-down while the 65 to 70 members of the global unit seek new jobs, the people said, speaking anonymously because the internal discussions about the process...

BEIJING -- China on Friday offered a rare glimpse into its foreign exchange reserves, confirming that they are overwhelmingly allocated in dollars, while a central banker said the mountain of cash could face depreciation risks.
The Chinese government's currency reserves, the world's largest such stockpile at $2.45 trillion, are held roughly in line with what was described as the global average: 65 percent in dollars, 26 percent in euros, 5 percent in pounds, and 3 percent in yen.

China PBOC Researcher Warns Sharp Gold Price Decline
From Market News International, Frankfurt, Germany
Tuesday, August 31, 2010
http://imarketnews.com/?q=node/18539
BEIJING -- Sales by overseas central banks could see a sharp fall in gold prices, the Financial News reported Wednesday, citing Zou Pingzuo, a central bank researcher.
"Investors should be careful about investing in gold. Gold prices could fall sharply because of intensive gold sales by the United States and other overseas central banks," Zou said.
The researcher's comments were delivered at the launch of a gold investment competition.
China currently holds 33.89 million ounces of gold, according to People's Bank of...
The Gold Audit
From The New York Sun
Tuesday, August 31, 2010
Congressman Ron Paul is in the news again, this time for calling for an audit of America's gold reserves. He issued the call in an interview with a news service run by a gold dealer, Kitco News, which reported that the congressman intends to introduce legislation calling for such an audit of what we hold at Fort Knox and other sites, such as the New York Federal Reserve Bank in lower Manhattan. It's the kind of thing people tend to laugh at, the way they once did when Doctor Paul...

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
Congratulations to Kitco News and its reporter Daniela Cambone for having broken last week what this week Fox News made into a national story, the call by U.S. Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, for a serious audit of U.S. gold reserves. The Fox News story, broadcast and posted today and appended here, is notable for two reasons apart from calling attention to the audit issue.
First, the Fox News story quotes Paul as remarking that the audit should determine not only the simple presence of gold in the U.S. government's vaults at...

LONDON -- The International Monetary Fund's gold reserves fell by 16.85 metric tons in July as Russia added 16.2 tons to its holdings, according to figures from the Washington-based lender.
Reserves of gold at the IMF were 2,917.07 tons at the end of July, compared with 2,933.92 tons a month earlier, data on the IMF's website show. Russia increased holdings to 726.02 tons last month from 709.81 tons, according to the figures.
The IMF plans to sell a total of 403.3 tons of gold. India, Mauritius, and Sri...

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
For years GATA banged on the door of the Financial Times, including a meeting in London with the newspaper's commodities reporter a year and a half ago, trying to get some attention for the international central bank gold price suppression scheme. The clamor went without result until this weekend, when the FT published a long story about gold by the paper's personal finance reporter, Ellen Kelleher, which was also in large part about GATA's work. The interview with GATA Chairman Bill Murphy that was cited in the story took place...

China's draconian export curbs on rare earth minerals needed by the rest of the world for frontier technologies is escalating into a serious diplomatic and trade clash with the United States and other leading powers.
Japan's foreign minister Katsuya Okada issued what amounted to a formal protest at top-level meeting with Chinese officials in Beijing over the weekend, saying the sudden cut-off was "affecting the global production chain."
It is the latest sign of rising pressure after angry complaints by companies outside China that rely on this family of...
