Great INFO………..noted it was just established Jan 2019
Some day — I hope I live long enough to see this, the AIIB, etc. relevant. Once the USD is no longer the world’s reserve currency with all that goes with that, it will be harder for the U.S. to play world hegemon. But for now . . .? These non-dollar exchanges are not remotely ready to be truly relevant; and certainly not with European leaders who refuse to stand up to the U.S. That will change some day, but not before at least one more BIG bust forces the issue.
With such a $US stranglehold,
why would (((they))) not ‘reform’?
I agree the US Dollar will be toast.

After all other fiat currencies have crumbled to dust.
I think the Swiss franc will outlive the US dollar…would be nailed on if they hadn’t broken the gold backing in 2000
Maybe,…….But why did they sell their Gold?
INSTEX………most likely being used by HILLY AND BILLY…….to run their drug operation through…..LOL

The third cop shooting this week.
All the Democratic loonie tunes think it’s a field day./week.
47 people shot in Chicago over the weekend was bad enough.
BOYS!
You see this??? Bubba like you never knew him…or maybe you did…
And you wondered who wore the pants………………lol

Jeffrey Epstein had a painting of Bill Clinton wearing a blue DRESS and red heels and lounging in the Oval Office inside his Manhattan mansion – visitor reveals bizarre image inside pedophile’s $56m lair
Big scam………..Barr….Dalton School……DynCorp…….Kissinger…..
Everything is on the WEBB……..lol ……Geroge Webb .. 🙂
Epstein……..is only a small part of the story……
The story……starts back about 1962……
Then you can go back to 1947…….with the fall of the Nazi…..pick it up with CIA…..and the National Security Act …..then go back to Czar Russia….
And you don’t think a wall important ?

(LODE) Comstock Mining Announces Second Quarter 2019 Results;
Launches Mercury Remediation Business and Enhances Lucerne Sale
(08/15/2019)
>> Second Quarter 2019 Selected Strategic Highlights
– Received $3.1 million in non-refundable cash deposits toward the Lucerne Sale;
– Received $3.92 million in non-refundable stock payments toward the Lucerne Sale, valued at $5 million;
– Amended the Lucerne sale agreement with Tonogold, ensuring a near-term, third quarter closing;
C- ompleted corporate and legal realignment positioning future business growth;
– Partnered and launched Mercury Clean Up LLC, a mercury remediation, clean technology growth venture;
– Completed concurrent reclamation and reduced reclamation bond liabilities; and
– Received a most favorable ruling associated with the Dayton Resource zoning.
It has been an interesting corporate realignment in (LODE) Comstock as they divest old land deals and Lucerne to Tonogold, but get positioned into more of the downstream processing and remediation business.

OK, I’m not an economist.
I know that stock markets go from under valued to over valued and back again……they oscillate above and below true value. Always trying to seek “true value”, but seemingly mostly missing.
Clearly, by historical measures, stock markets are over valued.
But most assets of “real wealth” seem over-valued. In Bubbles.
Real estate is “over-valued”
Art is “over-valued”
Antique cars are “over-valued”.
As interest rates, our measure of the value of money, go to zero, what does that say about the value of money ?
Is it really saying we will have a recession because of the interest rate inversion….
Or is it really saying our measure of the value of money has become meaningless ?
I believe the driver of interest rates has changed (No matter what the Fed says)
I believe it is not consideration of the ebullience of the economy that is driving interest rates. It is the size of the debt. We cannot afford higher interest rates because the cost of carrying the debt would be too great. The obvious deduction from this belief…..
IS THAT INTEREST RATES NO LONGER CARRY MEANING.
We may or may not have a recession, but it has nothing to do with interest rate inversion.
I believe Israel will allow Rashida Tlaib to enter Israel, but will gag her from speaking publicly inside Israel, because she is a rabble-rousing trouble-maker.
I need Mr. Temple look at INSTEX (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrument_in_Support_of_Trade_Exchanges) and see that the dollar is actually toast.
