Forwards by foreigners looking to buy west african eurobonds. I sure the dollar yields are worth the risk, but, let's not forget the current rising yields in the primaries ... 300bps for two year yields ... money mart is getting tighter. “We are the middle children of history man, no purpose or place.

Rank: Veteran Joined: 9/4/2009 Posts: 700 Location: Nairobi		The World Gold Council (WGC) released its quarterly “Gold Demand Trends” report last week and, as always, it was filled with fascinating data on the strength of the global gold market. Gold demand grew 11 percent to 981.3 tons during the first quarter of 2011, worth $43.7 billion at quarter-end’s price levels. The increase was driven by a significant rise in demand for gold as an investment, up 26 percent from a year ago, as emerging markets look to protect their assets from rising inflation. Demand for gold bars and coins was up 62 percent and 42 percent, respectively. A slight pullback in prices during the middle of the quarter and “persistent high inflation levels” pushed China into the position as the world’s largest market for gold investment. Chinese citizens devoured nearly 91 tons of gold bars and coins, more than double the amount of a year ago.

I find the ksh carry trade very confusing. CBK never seems in control? How do u gauge this? As for the USD, 2yrs are not painting a nice picture. Considering the fed fund rate is next to zero... I've not paid attention to the west africa eurobonds. What are the foreigners chasing? I see likely defaults due to volatile politics; ivory coast being the recent example. http://blogs.reuters.com...-carry-trade-never-dies/ $15/barrel oil...

Rank: Chief Joined: 8/4/2010 Posts: 8,977		EIA to stop reporting some oil info due to cost cutting measures. Hmmm... A broke stats agency. What hidden skeletons now? I take this as a signal to go bullish on oil with a bet of breaking $150 set in 2008 as confirmation of $200 target. When US fed stopped reporting M3 money supply info, gold has become a bison in 2yrs? http://www.eia.gov/press...m/releases/press362.cfm Meanwhile Chinese inflation still bullish... A sudden Chinese slowdown will drag down the global GDP. And the shanghai equity market says so... http://en.21cbh.com/HTML...27/1NMjM1XzIxMDI1NA.html $15/barrel oil...

Controls are artificial, meaning they have never worked in economic history as a method of trying to correct price problems caused by the planners themselves. The dislocation that will be cause scarcities will wreak havoc on industrial and private consumers. The plotters that got us into this problem could do anything, but like every exercise of controls in history, the economic dislocation caused by sophomoric attempts at price controls is biblical. Anyone ever positively discussing this is a world class idiot." Read more: http://www.jsmineset.com...istorically-disastrous/ Deal Avenue: http://investorslounge.tumblr.com
