Published Sep 25, 2013 on Goldswitzerland
Egon von Greyerz discusses that with the US on life support, this was the wrong time to turn off the machine. A country with debt going up exponentially, real GDP and real wages going down and real unemployment at 23% is not in a position to stop the stimulus. Add to that a US and European banking system full of of toxic debt and worthless derivatives and we know why the Fed is worried. Instead we will see more QE and a crashing dollar.

JPMorgan Says "Buy Gold"
Published Sep 21, 2013 on Zerohedge
The FOMC shocked markets by deciding not to slow its large-scale asset purchase program, after all the signals it had sent out in previous months that it would do so. While increasing policy risk, JPMorgan notes, this puts the asset-reflation trades back on the table. In their view, the main driver of gold’s performance over the past five years has been QE. As QE continued and inflation expectations remained subdued, the demand for an inflation hedge subsided, ETF positions were unwound and gold prices fell. However, JPM now believes, as a result of the Fed's volte-face on tapering, uncertainty about future inflation may pick up and suggest a long position in gold. Of course, the question is - are they buying or is this a last ditch effort to drain what little remaining gold they have in their vault to their hapless clients?

Chinese Housewives vs. Goldman Sachs: No Contest | Casey Research
Published Sep 23, 2013 on Caseyresearch
If you dig down into the data further, you find that cumulative gold imports through July surpassed the 26.7 million ounces (831 tonnes) that was imported to China for the whole of 2012. That means rather than being deterred from buying gold when its price was declining this year, the Chinese were snapping up the yellow metal as fast as they could. Further, last year Chinese miners produced 12.9 million ounces (403 tonnes) of gold, all of which stayed in the country.
