World Dollar Panic Imminent? There Is A Currency War Raging World-Wide And Masses Close To Realizing Their Money Is Being Destroyed

We’re In a Global Currency War … But What Does It Mean?

There is a currency war raging world-wide.

Japan, Brazil, Peru and countries all over the world are trying to beggar thy neighbor (just as happened during the 1930s) and gain a leg up for their exports by cheapening their currencies.

As the wall street jounal  writes:

Beggar-thy-neighbor currency devaluations proved ruinous for the global economy in the 1930s. Is the world setting off down the same slippery slope again?

Japan’s decision to intervene in the currency market to drive down the value of the yen blew a hole in the developed world’s united effort to persuade China and other Asian countries to stop artificially holding down their currencies.

If you take a step back, it really is an odd situation. As Joe Weisenthal notes:

Just think for a moment about the screwy times we live in when central banks are trying to hurt their rivals by buying up their rivals’ bonds — essentially lending them money.

Such is the state of things in a world where every country wants to weaken their currencies to boost their own exporters.

And the House has passed legislation saying China is a currency manipulator and has to raise the value of the Yuan.

What does it mean?

American experts say that the Chinese Yuan is undervalued by 25%, which makes Chinese exports artificially competitive. The U.S. Congress is trying to blame China’s undervalued currency for America’s bad economy and unemployment woes.

But the former U.S. trade representative, Susan Schwab, says that – while there’s a very real problem in terms of China artificially keeping the renminbi low – this isn’t the way to solve anything. Schwab calls it “a signal-sending exercise during an election season”. She says that the bill won’t really do anything, even if the Senate passes it and it is signed into law. Schwab says it “makes no sense”, won’t solve any problems, will escalate tensions, and will only divert attention from the real trade problems between the U.S. and China.

Indeed, Schwab warns that other countries might decide that this U.S. bill means that its open season for addressing currency manipulation, and that other countries believe that the U.S. is manipulating our currency. She says there could be a “boomerang effect” from the legislation….

WORLD DOLLAR PANIC IMMINENT? Masses Close To Realizing Their Money Is Being Destroyed

Today 40-year veteran, Robert Fitzwilson, wrote the following piece exclusively for King World News. Fitzwilson, who is founder of The Portola Group, warns, “When the masses realize that their money is being overtly destroyed in front of their eyes, there will be a panic. By then, it will be too late.” Below is Fitzwilson’s piece which discusses the approaching end game, and how gold and silver will be the primary beneficiaries.

Below is Fitzwilson’s exclusive piece for KWN:

“Over the millennia, gold and silver have been the critical intermediaries between purchasers and providers of goods and services. Having a sound standard for economic activity has been a critical factor in the rise of history’s most influential societies. In our time, nothing seems to generate more heated discourse than the topic of a gold standard…
