Stewart Thompson: QE and gold revaluation

Section: Daily Dispatches

1p ET Tuesday, February 19, 2013

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

Market analyst and newsletter writer Stewart Thompson argues today that as "quantitative easing" increasingly is recognized to have failed to revive economies, nations will turn to gold revaluation, just as they did during the Great Depression.

"Gold is going higher, much higher," Thompson writes. "It's going higher because government treasury departments are moving away from quantitative easing involving bonds and toward QE involving gold. The gold bears will be destroyed, and everything they made you afraid of will seem ridiculous in hindsight. There will be no currency war, but there will be co-ordinated devaluation of all G20 currencies against gold, just like there was in the 1930s."

Thompson's commentary is headlined "QE and Gold Revaluation" and it's posted at GoldSeek here:

Read the newly updated and expanded edition of Lehrman's book, "The True Gold Standard."

Financial journalist James Grant says of "The True Gold Standard": "If you have ever wondered how the world can get from here to there -- from the chaos of depreciating paper to a convertible currency worthy of our children and our grandchildren -- wonder no more. The answer, brilliantly expounded, is between these covers. America has long needed a modern Alexander Hamilton. In Lewis E. Lehrman she has finally found him."

They'll be holding a round-table discussion via the Internet at 2 p.m. ET Tuesday, February 12, and you can be part of it. Among their topics:

-- Why are precious metals such a compelling investment opportunity?

-- Why are non-G7 central banks buying gold? Do Western central banks have any left?

-- Why are investors buying as much silver as gold in dollar terms? What does this mean for the price of silver?

-- Is the growing supply deficit of platinum and palladium going to push their prices higher?
