Last sunday, May 1, I had the chance to talk to Bob Moriarty, from 321gold. That conversation can be viewed bellow
what we talked about, in short
Bob tells me that Russia now controls the price of gold, and other commodities. He believes that to be true because Russia recently pegged its currency to gold, by saying that it will buy gold at a fixed rate of 5,000 rubles per gram.
Later, Russia announced that it will only sell oil for rubles. Again, expressing the value of its natural resources in one currency, and thus linking the two things to each other.
To add to that, just recently, Russia has expressed intentions to start working on some type of a monetary system that pegs its currency to gold, and other commodities.
Although there have also been talks that the EU might stop buying oil, gas, coal and other commodities from Russia, Bob seems to strongly disagree with that and says that “the day the EU stops buying energy from Russia, is the day the EU economy colapses”.
Bob told me that eventually, this will drive the price of commodities – like gold & oil – much higher, as Russia is a commodity-centric country that would benefit from much higher prices.
Will it really happen, though? How will China & Japan react to higher commodity prices? Do bonds have something to do with all of that? Will we go into recession, depression, inflation, deflation, or all of the above? Bob had some interesting answers to these and other questions in this interview.

Today, I went to the beach front with my children. I found a sea shell
and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to her ear and screamed.
There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had
to tell someone!
