Wurzel Of Highbridge replied to TheCountOfNowhere's topic in House prices and the economy
Dunno house price crash seems pretty quiet these days. Guess everyone migrated to Reddit 🤣 -
Gold strategy in the current economy
Wurzel Of Highbridge replied to Lepista's topic in House prices and the economy
What are your thoughts on the LME and Nickel debacle? I think it’s now quite obvious that if the price of precious metals rise too much they will close the markets and bail out the banks or losing bets? -
That's going to put up the prices for low value ebay items a bit 1.05 + 13% + 30p (ebay fees). Will now cost people £1.49 to revieve a empty bubble envelope (assuming the envelope was given away for freee).

Us "Tin Foil Hatters" don't look so stupid this week do we? I guess we get it right once every 10 years 😃 -

A lot of fellow DJs have been losing work this last couple of weeks. New year's Eve being the best paid gig of the year for most. -

Gold strategy in the current economy
Wurzel Of Highbridge replied to Lepista's topic in House prices and the economy
Looks like the stops have been shaken out by the banksters. I'm calling the bottom. Blood on the streets and lack of interest in the metals. It can only go one direction from here. -

Labour might be in by then, so it won't happen. -
The big bond market crash
Wurzel Of Highbridge replied to Wurzel Of Highbridge's topic in House prices and the economy
So, I guess if you were a pension fund and held funds in a bank, every now and again you'd transfer some funds into the centeral bank to mitigate risk from the bank you have your account with. If you were a bank though, you would just keep the cash in your own bank at 0%. That is unless you were worried about your own banks solvency? -
The big bond market crash
Wurzel Of Highbridge replied to Wurzel Of Highbridge's topic in House prices and the economy
Who buys these bonds? Can't they just keep the cash or the money in their account yielding 0%? Also why do centeral banks set negative interest rates rather than simply stop accepting deposits, as this would put cash into the economy? -
If it seems or looks dodgy I won't transact with a buyer. There's always plenty more out there willing to buy. The other half has one person wanted a used S10 from here via facebook, could only pay via paypal but needed to use paypal credit blah. blah.... Needless to say that sale never proceeded. Not worth the risk.

About time for discussion on the impending bond market collapse that the Chinese have finally allowed to start happening. Beginning with several Chinese government owned aaa-rating companies defaulting on their bonds. State-owned miner Yongcheng Coal and Electricity defaulted on a 1 billion yuan ($151.9million) bond last week Government-backed chipmaker Tsinghua Unigroup, which missed payment after failing to extend its deadline for repayment, State-owned Huachen Automotive Group — a Chinese joint venture partner of BMW. China Evergrande also came under the spotlight for reportedly having cash crunch issues. https://www.cnbc.com/2020/11/20/china-bond-defaults-by-state-owned-firms-spark-concerns.html

Coronavirus - potential Black Swan?
Wurzel Of Highbridge replied to LetsBuild's topic in House prices and the economy
Quite, the guarenteed second wave is all about money printing. My main concern is what are they planning as the next cover for bailing out themselves and the financial system? -
