gold: Gold Lease Rates Skyrocket Perhaps Forcing Gold Markets Meltdown - 10/07/08 03:38 PM
Central banks in the past have lent out their gold for a very small percent return to the bullion bankers in the gold market. These bullion banks borrow the gold then sell it into the market and then taking the proceeds to invest in higher return investments.

We have just read the gruesome forclosure statistics and it's back to the future. There is talk that fannie and freddie may rent out inventory housing and foreign investors or country sovereign funds may also invest in foreclosed properties and converting them to rentals. The payback of such a plan appears to be good to very good. The Russian invasion of Georgia does indeed mark a new reduced chapter for the US military. No longer will they have their once omni potent status. We understand that plans are being made to provide a new support mechanism for the US dollar. There … (1 comments)

This is simply not the case...Energy cannot be created or destroyed, but only changed from one form into another.
