Since the introduction of measures enabling banks not to bear bond losses on their balance sheets, the markets have not recorded the slightest correction.

It appears likely that the new BRICS+ currency will be linked to a weight of gold. This will be the biggest upheaval in international finance since 1971. It’s taking direct...

The U.S. debt crisis has been avoided, but the Treasury must urgently issue an avalanche of very short-term bonds to pay its bills. How much money does the U.S. government need? Initial estimates put the colossal figure at $550 billion, to be found immediately, starting this summer.
